Specs on the Raleigh Talus 5.0 hardtail mountain bike are subject to change

After its initial break-in period you might notice your bicycle performing less responsively than the day you brought it home. Not to worry, this is typical of all new bicycles and simply reflects that cables have stretched or their housings have seated themselves into final position. To keep running at peak performance, all REI bicycles come with a FREE warranty tune-up, which should be accomplished between the first 100-200 miles of riding or after the first two months if you're accumulating miles less quickly. Contact your nearest REI bike shop for details and an appointment for this important service.

Comments about Raleigh Talus 5.0 Bike - 2012:

I've had this bike for about 5 months now and have put in just over a 1000 miles, mostly on the road but also on some easy single track. This has become my all around commuter bike. Does fine in wet conditions or even an inch or two of snow. Sure, it is not the lightest bike around, but it handles pretty much any road conditions just fine. I do recommend this bike, good value for the money.
