Strengths:    Bike is at 31 lbs so its fairly light and has a very strong frame.
Nice looking bike i got mine in pink, black and white which looked great for street.
Short chainstay
Tires are great on dirt and street
Wheelies are pretty easy
Bike feels great in the air
The hydraulic brakes are awesome! Just tune them properly.

Weaknesses:    The fork is bottom of the line with preload adjust only
The pedals
The grips SUCK in hot weather mine are going to be replaced tommorow after 6 months of riding the bike.


Bottom Line:   
This is a great bike, amazing value for money. Just get your grips and fork changed and this becomes a killer bike. I think this is a great bike for intermediate riders like myself, beginners would probably be suited to this as well. For more advanced riders I would recommend going a step up and buying the Voltage YZ 0.3, 0.2, 0.1 or even the limited like a buddy of mine has done, who is more advanced than me. Bottom line get this bike its great value for money and if need be it can be upgraded further.

Strengths:    Fairly light, strong frame, amazing brakes, very nice looking, very awesome short chainstay, easy to wheelie, amazing to jump, love the tires-- they are good on dirt, rough trails, and urban areas.

Weaknesses:    forks could be a little better but i was satisfied.
pedals are meh.


Bottom Line:   
A good quality bike. i would say that some better forks would better fit the price but the value is still outstanding. this bike is strong and easy to use, and is a great bike for intermediate riders, and also for good beginners.
