2012 Carrera Kraken
Halfords does not follow suit with the trend of rising bicycle prices. With its new Carrera Kraken hardtail model for 2012, it guarantees topnotch features but its price is incredibly lower than other competitors. Some of these features are maintained from its previous versions.
The heat-treated and double-butted 7005 alloy frame of the 2010 model will also be used in the 2012 version, which weighs 13.8kg. A 120mm-travel Suntour XCR-D air fork will also be used up front. Its pedals are of higher quality alloy but of similar price with throwaway plastic pedals.
With a classy look but lowered price, the 2012 Carrera Kraken is a very competitive mountain bike to watch for. Included in the spec highlights of the bike are Clarks hydraulic disc brakes, Continental Mountain King 2.2in tires, SRAM X5/S600 gearing and alloy wheels.
verry nice bike but im more confident with appolos
appolos , are cr*p snapped 2 in the past
Bought one of these about 2 months ago! Great so far, looks great & feels great. Few initial Tweeks needed after a shabby Halfords build, but overall really happy. 2 probable upgrades, saddle & forks, although for the light trails I use it on forks would come later! Great bike to get back in the game after a lengthy break!
