Duration Product Used:1 Year
Purchased At:i was given it
Strengths:Its a good bmx for me as im small so i like the size

Similar Products Used:none (this is my first bmx)
Bottom Line:i really love my ignitor but i don't know why as the chain broke and i keep falling off. i've taken it over ramps and dirt jumps and generally ridden it about and i think it can get quite a good bit of speed but i really really hate the seat!

Favorite Trail:I don't have one
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Price Paid: $174.00
Strengths:Strong frame, good brakes
Weaknesses:crap tires, small seat, wierd seat post
Similar Products Used:mongoose expert
Bottom Line:This frame is ok, but the seat and post are screwed up. I am 14 and there is no way that i could even fit on it. I had to put a new seat and post just to ride it. The diameter of the seat post is also wierd. Its smaller then the arerage bike. It also can only be raised about 6 inches.

Submitted by a Weekend Warrior from Cairns, QLD, Australia
Date Reviewed: July 29, 2000
Duration Product Used:1 Year
Strengths:Frame, handlebar, grips, crankset
Weaknesses:Rear brake (Alloy), chain stay, seatpost, chain,
Similar Products Used:Diamondback Viper
Bike Setup:Factory defaults
Bottom Line:I rode my bike everyday to school and well, after a while, the chain broke, this is a good bike ONLY IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST BMX, very good price. The rear brake sucks but the front brakes is fairly good. Be very careful about getting this bike because my Haro RI got stolen and I'm fed up with this bike. Think about the height of the seatpost when you are putting it up because it snapped in half when I put it up too high and went racing.
