Strengths:    looks fast, fits well

Weaknesses:    everything else

Bottom Line:   
From a mechanics view this bike is a complete nightmare. The rear brake is horrible and a pain to set up and the guide for cutting the seat mast sucks. The reason this bike was purchased was because the geometry fit me well but I now regret this purchase. The customer service at Blue is the worst in the industry, if you dont believe me just give them a call and find out for yourself. The Aereus aerobars have poor adjustment and dont bolt well with the base bar

Strengths:    Quick
Light: Weighs dead on at 18lbs. thats with pedals and heavy training wheels.

Weaknesses:    Due to stem you cant turn seat to the right or left a little like I can on my road bike. Definitely not a deal breaker

Bottom Line:   
This bike is one bad mama jama. Very light and responsive. Handles like a Ferrari. I just starting riding bikes in Jan so I'm a newbie. My avg bike split went from mid 18's to mid 20's just by swithcing to this bike!
