Strengths: Comfort for short rides
Weaknesses: Weight, weight, weight.
Bottom Line:
Was sold this bike as a comfort road / trail bike. It isn't. With front and seat shocks, it is comfortable but it is so heavy that anything over 25 miles on the road is a real chore. Even with ridiculously easy granny gears, it is too heavy to climb with. Off road, the combo tires do make it a relatively good ground gripper but again the weight makes it impossible to go anywhere. IMHO it would be a good commuter bike for flat street rides of 10 miles or less. Other than that, get a real road bike and enjoy your ride more.
