Strengths: Heavy duty alumumin frame. Longer frame with built in hub generator with lights.
Weaknesses: Plastic cover over the chain guard. Hard to get back on if it comes loose. Price if you have to buy a new one. I do not think they are inported to USA anymore.
Bottom Line:
This is an excellent ride if you can find one in this country. I have one that I purchased on e-Bay from a person in Ireland. I really love the 8 speed internal derailer because you don't have to down shift as you are comming to a stop sign. You simply shift to a low gear and start peddling in that gear when you leave the stopsign. As far as the 8 speed is concerned the gear range covers about the same ratio as a 24 speed mountain bike without all the inbetween gears that I never use anyway. Great bike.
