Expirience with the Conway WME 7.9

Ludwig Döhl The WME 7.9 is available with both 27.5 and 29 inch wheels. The stowe unit under the bottom bracket for the spare tube is a nice touch. No matter how rowdy the ride gets: when shredding the Conway All Mountain, the 65 degree head tube angle and the long wheelbase ensure a pretty chilled handling. When sitting in the saddle, the posture is neither overly sporty, nor uber-comfortable. This should make the WME 7.9 suite the taste of most bikers. Finally, here is another killer argument: in price range in alpine terrain, the All Mountain of Conway is one of the best models in the in alpine terrain category. Conway gives 5 years warranty on the bike.
