Strengths: Nice funk factor, beautifull metallic candy apple red paint job, well excecuted. Grip shifters, good components for the $$Weaknesses: Heavy (34 lbs), shocks have no adjustment and only 3" of travel.Bottom Line: I saw the bike at a pawn shop for $70.00. I gave it a quick
inspection and saw several signs indicating the bike had less than 3 miles of riding on it. I figured it would be a nice starter bike. It seems quite responsive yet very stable. I can ride it all day on the street and in an instant hop over to a dirt road at full speed. The Schwalbe tires sem well suited to this (the stock tires were more
suited to a dirt bike! If you want a funky bike that turns heads but don't like mushy FS bikes or want to spend $$$$, this bike is for you. If you are planning to buy a bike then
upgrade the components, look elsewhere.
Favorite Trail: Riding out the back of a C-131 at 10,000 feet...
