Strengths: Great looking, all black, nice decals. Classic look, somewhat muted yet recognizable markings. Excellent components, not a hodge podge like some manufacturers.
Weaknesses: No dealers in all of Georgia
Bottom Line:
Purchased as a reentry into road biking again. Did not want to spend $1500+ for the name of Trek. Just the components alone would have cost $1300.00. I have ridden over 1500 miles and have had zero issues with the design or quality of workmanship. They seem to have overcome the quality issues that plagued Motobecane the first few years. I realy enjoy this bike, people ask nostalgically about the bike and remember the Motobecane they had before.
Similar Products Used: Not applicable first road bike in over 12 years.
Bike Setup: Factory setup, other than tools and computers, everyone complains about the saddle but I ride for 3 - 4 hours and have yet to have any problems.
