Carrera vengeance mtb opinion

mondeo

Hey there,

Would you buy one of these bikes? I have a Carrera subway at the minute which is fine but want something for the trails and general mucking about in the hills. Is this machine good enough for what I want to use it for?

One thing that bothers me about it is that there is no lockout on the fork. Am I missing out looking at MTBs with no lockout fork?

Hi,

Would recommend a fork with lockout as well as hydraulic brakes. For an extra €75, check out the carrera vulcan. V good value for the spec.

I can't really afford to go with a really high end machine with hydraulic brakes. I'm just factoring in the accessories I have to buy for it aswell, mud guards and a good lock to. I was thinking the vengeance would be a good starter MTB. I'm impressed with the quality of my Carrera subway so have no problem buying another Carrera.

Sorry, I should have included a link to my last post. You don't need to go high end and Carrera is grand. I would just look at a slightly better one like this....
