Strengths:
Price, strong frame. Fairly decent components considering the price. Very nice overall appearance.
Weaknesses:
A bit heavier than I'm used to. The InSync front suspension is a bit squeaky and not all that smooth.
Similar Products Used:
Specialized M2, Cannandale F400
Bike Setup:
I've added Bontragger kevlar beaded tires, Shimano SPD's and changed rear derailleur to Shimano deore LX.
Bottom Line:
This a great bike to build upon. Though it rode pretty well as stock. You can't get a better bike for the price.
