Strengths:    It is an overall strong bike, it handled alot of pretty big drops for me

Bottom Line:

Submitted by Matt Kinsley a Weekend Warrior from Sioux Falls SD USA

Date Reviewed: September 20, 2004

Strengths:    A light bike that rides smooth and takes some abuse.

Weaknesses:    The frame is small and more likely to bend under more stress than my GT Vertigo.

Bottom Line:   
For most people this bike is a great looker and performer under some stress. All in all I recomend getting yourself one of these bikes.

Submitted by Carl F. a Weekend Warrior from Milton,Wi,USA

Date Reviewed: February 25, 2002

Strengths:    Well, i got it stock and it was WEAK. So i put all new componets on it. But the frame was STRONG and LIGHT. The chainwheel is an awesome 2 piece!

Weaknesses:    The seat was a tiny little plastic rock. The brakes were useless so I took them off(i take off all my brakes cause it if funner to ride brakeless) The crank was a wimpy one piece. The handle bars were too long so i cut em down to 24 inches.

Bottom Line:   
The frame is awesome but the rest of the bike is worthless. It is a great bike to buy if u have plenty of parts to replace the junk on the VFR. It is an awesome bike for "tearing it up" on but it is terrible for racing.
