Stock except for fox racing plate, and classic Schwinn Stock except for Fox mini plate and classic Schwinn Stingray BMX pads.
Bottom Line:
Bought this bike for my Son and he loves it. It's lighter than a feather which is cruicial for BMX especially when it comes to kid's. They get tired of pedeling a 300 lb piece of crap around the track real quick. Very impressed with build quality and super strong rims. Have stayed straight and true despite the abuse a 6 year old BMX terror can put on them. Good one Schwinn. Only wish it was big enough for me to ride. Look for my son rockin' the track at Cactus park. Peace in the middle east!!

Strengths:
The prostock midi is a great setup for a small rider. My son has been racing on one all season and it has performed very well. The acceleration and handling are both excellent.
Weaknesses:
Rear brake leaves a lot to be desired but brakes just slow you down anyway.

Bottom Line:
This bike is an excellent kid's racing bike. It even come with clipless pedals. Make sure you size it before buying because it is a midi not mini and the frame sizes out larger than most minis.
