Weaknesses: 1 pc. cranks work good but i want 3 pc. cranks
Bottom Line:
it is a really good bike but if you snap the back rim do not use a diferent rim! get the exact same rim again!!!! because if you dont the tire rubs and it slows you up quite a bit!!! if you are built like a hippo this bike may not be for you, sorry! and if you like to just thrash parts, land flat, case, send your bike, or you're just that good that nothing can stand up to your wrath, this bike might not be for you.if you land smooth, are in control, and not built like a hippo, this is your bike!!!! i actually own this bike and i have since 2000 i think. IT IS A RACE BIKE!!!!!!!! i use it to do street, trails, stairs, vert and flatland though!! i can land smooth and i am about 100 lbs. so that might be why!! thanks -matt

Strengths: Strurdy, long-lasting, weekend warrior, good for experimenting, great starter bike, Low cost, goes on any terrain, and can get easy upgrades.
Weaknesses: None really
Bottom Line:
Get the bike, it`s an all-around great bike and its cheap.
Strengths: i have the new model. Its super strong.Very lite.If you add a 3 piece poverty crank.triple wall rims and whatever else you want you'll have a perfect bike.
Weaknesses: tight brakes and 1 piece crank
Bottom Line:
this bike is great for bmx racers ,trail riders,dirt jumping and off roading.its affordable and a good first bike.
Strengths: A good lookin frame with a kool red colour, it is strong, well built and looks more than its worth. Brakes also very strong on it, i took the front off tho since its a dirt bike.
Weaknesses: Uses 1" Threaded Headset system, this is not efficent, its old and it keeps coming lose. I replaced it with a 1" fork, Ahead set - with a steerer tube- and a clamp on stem, also had 2 replace most other parts becoz there not good, wheels, pedals, bars, seat, pegs, and the brake.
Bottom Line:
A good looking bike with some features, IE the cost!! most bits need replacing if u are going 2 do more than just ride this bike, plastic pedals slip in wet, headset keeps on coming loose, bars 2 wide, seat hurts legs, etc etc! the only thing i do like about the bike is the price = £150 and the frame.
