Strengths: -pretty good parts
-cheap
Weaknesses: -heavy
-weakish frame
-crappy tyresBottom Line: just because its heavy dosnt mean its indistructible
the frame is very dented, twisted and the dropouts are extremly bent, im not a fat cunt either.
the geometry on it is kinda dodgy, i only ride street on it so i dunno bout trails but it feels sluggish and heavy.
nice n cheap, i paid £250 brand new
the cranks rule
if you want a strong bike for heavy street
buy it and get a new frame when this ones dead, sorted. i dont think this things gonna be good for the tech park riders out there though.

Strengths: it is a strong as a tank, but rides as smooth as air (an all together great bike with perfect parts) One of the best value bike aroundWeaknesses: that gay blue it comes in (i got my bike in green) and the crank sometimes comes loose.Bottom Line: a good all rounder.
it would be hard to find a better bike, even if you spent another $250 on one

Strengths: Everything! I think this bike is worth about $600 and certainly looks it as well. The crank and handlebars are awsome. also it was used by Mike Parenti so must be good.Weaknesses: The Sky Blue model (I have Martian Green).Bottom Line: This bike is suitable from intermediate to pro level and will stand anything. It is worth the $450 price tag and is much better than the Fueler from 2000 (definately my favourite bike).

Strengths: Pretty much everything.Weaknesses: None that I can think of.Bottom Line: This bike rules! Its 4130 frame, fork, handlebar and crank will last forever. Some people think that it is heavy, but I think that the weight is spread even so it doesn't matter. However, I do think that the sky blue colour does look gay.

Strengths: Nice value for money,cranks,bars,general strength and looks.Flies outta concrete bowls in an almost physics defying way.(For quite a heavy beast)Weaknesses: Sprocket,tires(lastest about a week),bit of a sissy color(Mettalic light blue).Bottom Line: Best bike for the money by far.Rubbish Mongeese were more expensive in the same store.How comes it was only £230 pounds sterling?

from NYCDate Reviewed: August 10, 2001
Strengths: The best trail dirtjumping bike I have had. It is great. It will stand up to anything. I have used it for everthing. But only a small amount of Vert(I am not that good on Vert). But it will take anything. The parts are great.Weaknesses: Need new tires(I use Maxxis Holyrollers). Hard to backflip(because the grips suck).Bottom Line: A great bike. As good good as many other that are $700 to $800. A good bike for a rider that is good. Not for a little kid that cant do anything at all. You buy it you jump it.
