Default MTB - Cube Reaction K18

Anybody knows if this is a good one ?

Well, basicly i'm a fat bastard that want to go riding again. Not sure how long I will last, but my old MTB has been well used (well, and it's been sitting doing nothing for 5 years now, parts are more or less unavailable).

So I hope to pick it up quickly again and keep doing it for a while. Reason why I don't want to get into the low budget bikes.

Any toughts on the brand "Cube", the spec list looks good to me, but then again i've been out of it for 10 years.

As long as your comfortable riding and it ticks the boxes for the kind of riding you want to do...

Thats an excellant choice of parts on the bicycle.
