The Intense have a good rep. We had one through the other day, in black. Looked really nice, well built.
I'm saving for an Intense Cruiser.

the intenses have some wicked riders riding for them and teams etc, they are fast and feel like a decent bike should.
gotta make sure you get as many sealed parts as you can also,and make sure the 3piece is decent and make sure it fits.
ABDS are ok but pretty massed produced, dont get the expert xl cos they have the skinny wheels and youll kill it jumping
