Submitted by Bob a Weekend Warrior from Braham, Mn, USA
Date Reviewed: March 18, 2008
Favorite Trail:Any fire road I can find
Duration Product Used:6 months
Price Paid: $400.00
Strengths:It's a Breezer, need I say more?
Weaknesses:It's getting up there in the years so it will need a new paint job. (the paint was always a pain on these). My oldest daughter took over this bike. So I had to set it up for her & don't get to ride it anymore.
Similar Products Used:Breezer Jet Stream, GT Corrado
Bike Setup:Full XT w/Grip Shift, Raceface stem, Rock Shox
Bottom Line:I picked it up as a backup to my Jet Stream(I love my Jet Stream). With the front suspension (My Jet Stream is a 95 so its ridged)and the little heavier steel for the frame I thought I could retire my ProFlex Beast from the rought stuff. But my daughter took it over. So now it's father & daughter both riding Breezers.
