2011 Giant Yukon FX Bike Review

We were genuinely surprised by the performance of the 2011 Giant Yukon FX Bike simple one-pivot rear suspension design and generic air-sprung rear shock. Overall control is top in most trail situations, the rear triangle is reasonably stiff, and even pedaling is very efficient, at least in the middle ring.
Despite our initial concerns, the Giant Yukon FX proved that even at this price point, rear suspension can be a real performance plus. Adding that hardware does come at a price though, as the 2011 Giant Yukon FX is one of only two bikes in this test to use an 8-speed rather than 9 - or ten-speed cassette (the cluster of gear sprockets attached to the rear wheel), the suspension fork is wholly lacking in any sort of damping control, and the Giant is also the heaviest in this group.

2010 Pinarello FP3 Shimano Ultegra Bike Review


2010 Pinarello FP3 Shimano Ultegra looks like a Prince but it is not made in Italy. The complete bike ($3300) is significant less than a Prince frame ($4500), but how much Pinarello blood is left in it is veins?
More than enough. The Pinarello FP3 will not disillusion even the most hardcore Pinarello fan.






Cut to it: The Pinarello FP3 is a subtle riding bikecycle. It has the sense of a Prince without the stud. It is not as light and doesn't have the stiffness out of the saddle, however it's a fancy bikecycle in it's own right. Comparison it to the Prince or FP7 isn't precisely equitable, but when compared to other bikes in the $3000-4000 range, it's a stand out. Pinarello geometry, the oversized foot bracket, and Onda fork are Pinarello trademarks that make the Pinarello FP3 one of the best in it's price range.
Pinarello builds race bikes, they always have always will. However, they manage to create them ride pleasantly, too. The Pinarello FP3 is no exception. It is very well balanced out of the saddle and gives the rider confidence to commit entirely to a full-on sprint. but, it is smooth and dogged when driven hard in the saddle.
