Date Reviewed: February 12, 2001

Strengths:    Looks cool

Weaknesses:    Looks don't get you out of the woods when the flange bends.

Bottom Line:   
Bent the flange on the hub in less than 3 weeks. I'm pissed. The axle has started to tighten and the adjustment bolts were stripped before I tried to loosen it. Suck.
