Price Paid:  $400.00 at Vision Cyclery, SF

Favorite Ride:
Still researching

Bike Setup:
Switched out handlebar for comfort (wider) and splines for security.

Summary:
This was my first major bicycle purchase, and it was worth every penny. I'm about 6'2", and the large frame fits like a glove. The huge 700x40 slicks together with the front suspension fork are ideal for dealing with rough pavement in San Francisco.

Ideal bike for a commuter/leisure rider who wants a little more.

Strengths:
Front suspension fork excellent for biking on rough SF streets. Solid as a rock. The 700x40 tires.

Weaknesses:
Seat post "suspension" is weak. A little heavy.

Similar Products Used:
My old Nishiki Colorado hybrid.
