Strengths: Pretty lookin bike, it came with light brown saddle tires n grips tt complemented the frame's "anitique" colors of cream n maroon. Looks strong, n feels hugely stiffWeaknesses: stiffness comes w/ extreme weight, it is probably the heaviest frame i've tried-serious!!!whole bike weighs close to 35lbs, heavier than my cousin's very old F/S frame
now its ugly
w/ black tires, saddle n grips(they wore out after 2 yrs)
it looks terribleBottom Line: Still love this bike as it has excellent geometry and stability, just weighed the bike and it was 17lbs on the front and 18lbs on the rear-very balanced ride.
then maybe i"ll spray the frame another color so tt it wouldn't be such an eyesore.
it only gets 3 stars as i get whooped by other riders more often than when i'm riding anything else. maybe it is my technique n fitness dam!

Strengths: Very cool looking frame nice rid just a little heavy? Quite a strong frame (ihad the Fleetwood )Weaknesses: Comes with $hit components frame cracked after a big jump, 4ftBottom Line: This bike could fly! untill I broke it pretty average for going up hill but quite good at going down, very stable, best part was that the bike as setup was a real head turner, is now retired to my bedroom untill I get enough money to gusset it up and turn it into a 24" slalom racer!!!
