Pedal the Planet
Strengths:
Great Price, solid bike, and no problems so far.
Weaknesses:
no shocks.
Bottom Line:
There are no shocks, so it's a bumpy ride, but I put road tires and a gel saddle on which helped. Other than the handle grips slipping a half inch out of place every so often (a slight hit puts them right again), I have no complaints. A great starter bike at a great price that I ride all the time.

Strengths:
Excellent handling, solid frame and wheels. Good range of gears 22 gear-inches to 78 gear-inches. I am using this bike to commute to work. It is manuverable and a fast, light feel to it. I put on an alloy rear rack and a water bottle mount. It has an excellent al frame with a steel fork. It is upgradeable for more advanced use. It also has mounts for fenders. This bicycle uses easily found parts at your local bike store. No hard to find parts here!
Weaknesses:
- none found-
