Favorite Ride:
Backroads of home

Bike Setup:
Stock except for Nashbar M-series saddle.

Summary:
I bought this bike to ride when not riding the trails on my Trek. I have enjoyed it but the front and rear derailleur stink. I had a devil of a time adjusting it to keep the chain from jumping back and forth between 5th and 6th gear. The bolt that secures the cable on the front derailleur is totally inaccesible when trying to adjust for the largest sprocket. Overall, the bike is better looking than the Parkway and works fine for casual riding. I have ridden it about 40-50 miles per week for a year now which is fairly heavy riding for a bike under $200. Buy it before you buy a Parkway.

Strengths:
Nice looking, Grip Shift shifters

Weaknesses:
Front and rear derailleur's and saddle.

Similar Products Used:
Diamondback Parkway
