Hi... Is Specialized bikes a good name brand? In particular, I am interested
in opinions of the Specialized Rock Hopper bike.  Is there anything wrong with
it? What's good about it?

About truing a wheel.. What is involved in doing this? Can anyone tell me
how to true my wheel? I think I have the basic idea... If there is a bend in
the wheel (say to the left), I'll have to tighten the right spoke and/or
loosen the left one.

Thanks,
Gary
