Strengths: The frame has taken numerous offs under my care, its a strong b*tch Its taken drops to flat on concrete, stair gapping, etc. I just love the frame.Weaknesses: Components are just garbage, besides for the derailleurs, i have totally trashed the rims (in need for trueing) shifters are just goooooonne and the bar/stem just suck. But keep in mind that this ISN'T a trasher (hucking) bike so i'm not gonna comment on the rest.Bottom Line: If you are just interested in the frame, then your fine. But if your looking for the whole bike, just keep in mind that the components dont take a trashing. The Sun MC18 rims are light weight components which will need constant trueing unless your ultra smooth. The rear derailleur is sweet though, so is the front.
Overall:Buy the bike for the frame only, the rest sucks.

Strengths: This bike has a great soft seatWeaknesses: Frame, Cranks, Shifters, Shocks,derailleurs, DERAILLEUR HANGERBottom Line: This bike was a waste of my well earned 500 dollars. The biek was totaled the first month i got the bike. The shifters were the first to go, then the rear triangle got warped around my freakin wheel and has the wheel permanently jammed on the frame. The derailleur hanger broke countless times, i went through 3 sets of cranks and the whole front of the bike has somehow been warped and has angled my fork and pushed it away from the rest of the bike. This bike is almost as bad as the soggy nochos im eating.

Strengths: Feather light frame.Weaknesses: Grip shifts suck. When you change shifters you have to change out the rear derailer unless you want to spend crazy dollars on ESP shifters. Change those lousy pedals.Bottom Line: This is a great bike for the buck. Before doing any trail riding I suggest you change the grips otherwise you will be shifting over every log, rock or bump you may encounter. The front forks seem to be doing OK so far, I have no complaints. Overall great bike.
