Strengths:    good

Weaknesses:    none

Bottom Line:   
I got my gt fly for 499 and it was a great deal.
I like the bike very much .
I thought that it only came with a back break but I got it with both front and back.The guy at the store said that it could be used for both street and dirt jumping but I use it for both.The thing that I didnt like was that it didnt come with any pegs so I had to go and but a pair for 25 bucks,I originally thought that it came with pegs but I guess in the pictures it didnt whick I thought that it did.The thing that really blew my mind was that it came only 1 piece cranks which isnt very strong fo all u hardcore riders.The thing about my gt that I really liked was that it came with a nice launch pad seat which is very comfortable.
Anyways if you really badly want an fly I would get one because soon there not gonna be makin them anymore and also try to get a deal like i did.

Date Reviewed: September 8, 2001

Strengths:    I bought this bike for the frame, it's the best. Alex triples, great seat, 14mm axles

Weaknesses:    brakes, stem, grips, lever

Bottom Line:   
Customizing this bike to my specs or whatever you want will result in you having a bike without equal, believe me (just hope you're good enough for this tank or have enough money to make the total customized bike price tag)
