$490.00 | | Strengths: | Frame, handlebars, fork, and rims are all great. Brakes work great if you install them correctly, amazing for a gyro. Diatech hombre are used, which are nice. The rims are Sun Rims Big City, which i heard are really nice. The 3-peice crank is also very nice. 14 mm axle in the back. | | Weaknesses: | The sprocket gets ruined if you don't get a new one with a guard or if it is compatible with a sprocketguard. I ended up getting the macneil sprocket/guard, because that is good. I had to get the back hub fixed 3 times because it didn't get worn in quickly. There is a big hold in the stem. That dosen't really matter, but it's weird. 3/8 axle in the front, that could bend from some intense grinds. The grips are bad, and you will need some new ones within a month or 2. | | Similar Products Used: | First real street bike used yet. Had a GT mach one before this one. | | Bike Setup: | Listed pretty much in likes and dislikes. | | Bottom Line: | You will probably have to spend some money after you buy it to make it customized to you're comfort, such as some new grips, i also got metal bar ends, a new sprocket/guard, and some repair costs to the rear hub like mine had. Other than that, there should be no problems. IT DOES NOT COME WITH ANY PEGS. if you didn't realize that yet. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
