K2 Apache 5.0 mountain bike review

K2 Apache
At first glance - or more accurately, at first ride - you might think that the $1800 price tag on this “Best Of” is a mistake. The K2 Apache 5.0 looks, rides and feels like a more expensive bike—a much more expensive bike. The Apache 5.0 features loads of great components like SRAM derailleurs and cassette, Manitou adjustable shocks, Hayes Sole hydraulic disc brakes, Kenda Nevegal tires and Crank Brothers Egg Beater pedals. With four inches of suspension travel, it lets you handle just about anything you find in your way. And when nothing’s in the way, well, it’s even better. The Apache’s also quick, agile and responsive whether you’re climbing or heading down a rock-strewn single track. In short, it’s one awesome blend of performance and value. So check it out. The K2 Apache 5.0 is a very cool ride.
