I assembled a Dolomite and a Massif today.
The Dolomite needed grinding on the rear brake mount to keep the disk from rubbing hard on the caliper housing. Rides like a tank. Double boxed for a walmart pickup? Kickstand still sticking out the outer box. Some minor scratches on the fork. The crank is far lighter than what came on the Beast. BB bearings cranked far too tight. Once I pulled the cranks, I could not budge the axle with 2 hands. Added grease to the bb, headset, hubs and made the needed adjustments to all the bearings. Nicer seat and pedals than the beast. The frame looks more black, the fork more blue. Like they were painted in different factories.
The Massif? A pea sized weld blow thru, a huge double seam weld and a blown out vent hole all where the seat post would want to go. It will need reaming out. The seat had popped off the rails. Some rebending of the rails, wd-40 and a big screw driver to lever it back together. The bb was far too tight. Extra grease and adjust all the bearings. Very heavy cast iron 140mm crank arms. A little shorter than I'd expect.
both need serious disc brake break in time. Looks like the discs are made from plain mild steel. Uck. Look for those to rust up if left out in the winter or used in salted snow.
