from Nesher, Israel Date Reviewed: May 26, 2006 Strengths: Survivied the first ride Weaknesses: But severely bent at the second ride. Became useless from zero velocity fall. The stress on the rim was very low during the fall, and I was amazed how destructive it was. My former Giant suffered plenty of much harder stresses on the rim, without even a sign for bending.
