$220.00 | | Purchased At: | Berts Bikes Ton. N.Y. | | Strengths: | I bought this bike for the coolness factor and its cost effectiveness appeal.Why spend $300+ for somethin your not gonna use to its full potential? Go out and buy a SUV forchristsake! The money you save on purchase can be spent on some personal fave.accessories. | | Weaknesses: | I tried to purchase the Fuji Thunder model but its not available in the U.S.A. Hey, Fuji! take my $ please! but dont show me somethin I cant have! ok? I tried to contact Fuji to ask where I could get fenders like the Thunder model but they didnt respond. Hello Fuji can you hear me now!!!? | | Similar Products Used: | Some old ancient Fuji 4130 fold up bike | | Bike Setup: | I added Planet Bikes Freddy Fenders w/ mud flaps.Had to use a f*ckn zip tie for the front right stabilizer arm cause the stupid fork doesnt have drop down eyelets.Hey it beats duct tape. Also added H20 bottle,cheapo reachargable light set and a back rack. | | Bottom Line: | Overall the bike handels well and is fairly comfortable for the price.Get a larger seat if you have a fat american a** if not keep it for that c. factor. Its a good no frills investment to get you from point A-B w/ 100% eye candy appeal.

$250.00 | | Purchased At: | Pedal Pushers, Serverna Pk, MD | | Weaknesses: | It looks good, so lock it up well in the city or it'll be stolen. :( | | Bike Setup: | didn't have much of a chance to make any changes before it was stolen, don't use a cable lock | | Bottom Line: | really smooth ride, shifts easily, great on hills. Really light weight, I'd get full road tires if you are going to be on the stree alot because the hybrid tires make it a little rougher. Definately not for those who want a really fast bike, however, because it's not
Comforatable saddle for long rides, easy to disassemble.

$259.00 | | Purchased At: | Congers Bike Shop | | Strengths: | strong frame,nice paint job(get the black),good brakes,rst 181 cl fork seems ok so far. | | Weaknesses: | small pedals,all i can see so far. | | Similar Products Used: | 93' nishiki blazer | | Bike Setup: | trico oversize max comfort saddle,added bar ends,replaced pedals, added bottle holder. | | Bottom Line: | so far ,so good, took it out a few times and like what i got. i,m 6'4" over 300lbs and the bike holds me just fine. however be advised that i'm not the type of guy to beat on a bike. i don't jump or do any trails, just basic street riding. the most daring thing that i do is is ride down the short stairs at the park. so if you want a bike to hold a big guy, this is a good value . provided that you don't beat on it. even if i paid $20.00 too much. i'll let you know if any thing changes. remember i just bought this bike this week. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
