    Strengths:    Very light, agile, and comfortable. The shifters are very accurate having no hang-ups.

    Weaknesses:    Seat could be more comfortable but definitely not intolerable for me.

    Bottom Line:   
    I bought this bike primarily for commuting back and forth to work. Although I do not have much time on it, so far I am extremely happy with it and feel as if I got my money’s worth and didn’t just by a name.

    Strengths:    Reasonably quick
    Feels durable
    Looks SEXY in matte grey


    Weaknesses:    I keep going to the garage to look at it.

    Bottom Line:   
    So let me just say I have never bothered to review a product before. However, in purchasing a bike I found everybody has a different opinion and the only way to come to a decision is to hear everybody out and then decide for yourself. I can't stand the component snobs who seem to make propagate the notion that one spend 2 grand on a bike to get anything that is more than just barely usable equipment. Then they go online to complain about how the bike is crap. I felt I needed to balance some of that out. I reject the notion that I need to spend that kind of money to get from point A to point B reliably for many thousand of miles. So far I effing LOVE my bike. Been commuting on it. Shifts well and reliably. Rides nicely. Not too flashy and not too paranoid about someone stealing it. Bottom line...if you want a solid commuter/fitness bike at a reasonable price, This is the one for you.

    Strengths:    Hardcase tires, stock saddle. Bike well put together. Bombproof. Alloy fork.

    Weaknesses:    Shifters, brakes, deraillers, wheels are bottom of the barrel, and not very responsive but acceptable for the price point.

    Bottom Line:   
    Good bike for riding in varying road conditions.
    Or for training rides when you just want to hop on and go, rather than going though the whole ritual of kitting yourself up, and pumping up the tires on your road bike.
    It's a good frame, well assembled with cheap components.
    Hard to beat at this price.
    Weighs 30 pounds, much lighter than MTBs. You can climb hills.
