Strengths:    Great price, great value, aluminum frame, descent parts spec for the money

Weaknesses:    Tire compound is too hard. Front shock is cheap. pedals are plastic

Bottom Line:   
The bike handles very well and is really stiff. When I got it I changed the tires which made a huge difference. However, the bike had a low end fork which also needed to be changed. This would of been a great bike for just going back and forth to school, but I wanted to ride on the weekends at the trails as well. I put clipless pedals on it and it is now a great all around bike. The frame is good quality and I will continue to upgrade it as needed. I would recomend this bike to anyone looking of a great low priced bike that won't leave you stuck out on the trail.
