Hammerhead-Switchback - rider reviews

One of our most popular bikes is the Hammerhead 130x, a.k.a. Switchback Unveil 9 (the difference is in the decals only - the bikes are identical... it's a long story). We've noticed there aren't many reviews of these awesome high-end bang-for-your-buck trail bikes, so we thought we'd get in touch with some of our old customers to get a handful of reviews after months of riding.

The best thing about this bike is the frame - GT has been fine-tuning the geometry for years, so you're getting the same ride as their most expensive offerings. 27.5" wheels and Conti Race King tyres are great quality, the Shimano Acera/Deore running gear and Promax hydraulic brakes will prove reliable for years, and the Suntour fork, whilst not as light and refined as RockShox or Fox models, has...
