Strengths: very strongWeaknesses: the gyro was a waste of my time... plus the brakes were kinda crappy.Bottom Line: the bottom line is that this ride was the very best ive ever had... i took a pretty bad slam and the bike slammed agained a tree at about 30 miles an hour while i hit dropped from a 20 foot air.... it was only damaged in one place.. it left a golf ball sized dent in the frame.. but no cracks or were on it... it still rides today.. im giving it up to a friend because im getting too old to ride it now... but it will never be forgotten.

Strengths: sturdy frame, always comes out still going, and appears to be able to survive anything.Weaknesses: Grips were HORRIBLE USE GLOVES, my tire popped after riding over a rock and had to walk nearly 1 mile home(old tires).Bottom Line: The bike is an awesome bike.I would take this over my friends custom 12 pound bike.Great for BMX (use dirt tires more grip).Can ride on street pretty well but the handle grips are horrible and after the bike sitting for a while the tires just got weak and popped over a rock.Overall its a very nice bike with few flaws.

Strengths: Great frame, great forks, Ok aleks rims, light in weight and great 3 piece crank set stock, good for barspins!Weaknesses: Bars stripped very easily, brakes wear out fast, a little front end heavy as wellBottom Line: Great bike for beginners but I highly recommend changing out the bars and brakes before any serious riding... Other than that pay the money and you will get a well rounded bike all together

Strengths: good for barspins, good for air, decent partsWeaknesses: Weak frame, if you do any tricks that will make you land sideways you will crack the frame behind the seatBottom Line: If you arent good at bmx and just want a bike so u can look cool doing catwalks this is the bike for you. but if u want to do real tricks get a bike with a strong frame and get good parts for it. dont sacrifice strength for light weight, Get a bike with a strong frame and get light pedels, bars, headcase, crank, bars, rims, chain, seatpost, pegs. Haveing to reajust to a new bike because yer old frame craked is not fun.

Strengths: none but a good beginer bike to learn onWeaknesses: -everythhing
-I had the bike for 2 mounths and it had been my first 2 mounths riding and I cracked the frame
-Rims week bend easy
-boke 1 pice crank
-bent bars
-broke seat post
-pedels sliperyBottom Line: Dont get this bike. I found out the frame broke when i brought it in for a tun up. I got a refund on the bike and upgraded to the 02 415 pro. The frame cracked right behing the seat post. there is to much preshure for that one weld. The 415's drop out's are split on either side of the seat post therefor sharing the load.

from Bushkill, PADate Reviewed: July 24, 2002
Strengths: This bike has a really tough frame and can take a lot of abuse, the stock bars are small for easy barspins. gyro doesnt stick. newly designed stock brakes are great. stock peddles are metal!!!Weaknesses: the 1 pc cranks, peddles give poor grip, and the worst weekness is that it is kinda heavy(but with weight comes strength the frame will never snap)Bottom Line: this bike is an extremely strong frame but i would only recomend it to exerienced riders b/c it is kinda heavy but if u r strong and a big rider you'll hav no problems with coping to this bike!!!
