Date Reviewed: June 28, 2007
Duration Product Used:More than 3 years
Price Paid: $750.00
Strengths:Light weight for a steel frame. Great brakes. Bang on shifters work every time.
Weaknesses:Tires worn out in first 1000 km.
Similar Products Used:Huffy Rock Therapy, Giant FCR
Bike Setup:Knobby tires... well lub'ed keeps it rolling.
Bottom Line:This bike is a great friend. The best compliment that can be paid is that it has never embarrassed me by having to carry it back to the finish line. It has always taken me to where I wanted to go.

This is a great bike new or used. I ride against bikes at 3 times the cost and it keeps up!
