$300.00 | | Purchased At: | Mr. Bike | | Strengths: | Stong Frame, all around good bike for a person of little skill or those that go balls out. | | Weaknesses: | Heavy setup when stock, came with a 1pc crank, pedals blew bearings out after a week. Minor mods can reduce that though. | | Similar Products Used: | '95 GT Vertigo, currently building a Fit aitken S3 | | Bike Setup: | holly roller tires, monster fork, specialized 3pc crank, redline 48 spoke hubs with xrims, go fast pedals | | Bottom Line: | K bottom line is i bought this bike in high school when road till we could see the front tire of the bike. I left the bike the way it was pretty much besides the 3pc crank. Reason i didnt do much to the bike was money reasons and time. But the bike was perfict for my riding style at the time, i was a light weight kid that loved doing big air tricks, the bike had the weight to move its self through the air once i got it started. Over all the bike will take a beating and keep you riding as long as you keep it well maintained. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$250.00 | | Purchased At: | Joplin Bike and Fitness | | Strengths: | Strong frame, good grips, gyro system | | Weaknesses: | Too big of handlebars, rims are weak, 1pc crank is weak, pedals, sprocket. | | Similar Products Used: | Fit Am | | Bike Setup: | Cut down handlebars, Oddessy Brake lever (got stolen), oddessy linear brake cable, diatech hombre brake system, shadow conspiracy seat. | | Bottom Line: | Good strong beginner bike for those riders not asking for much.

$200.00 | | Strengths: | frame, hubs | | Weaknesses: | crank, rims, chain, brakes | | Bottom Line: | not a bad bike for the price. the crank is weak as are the rims. i would recommend a profile 3 peice as the stock one bends fairly easily. the stock rims also bend easily. the frame is also just a tad bit long, but thats more personal preference. all in all, a good bike to start off of. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
