$140.00 | | Purchased At: | craigslist | | Strengths: | Bombproof frame and components, comfortable, nice stock gear ratio. | | Weaknesses: | None that I can think of. | | Similar Products Used: | Many many many MTBs, mostly singlespeeds including Fireman's Texas Cruiser. | | Bike Setup: | Totally stock setup. | | Bottom Line: | This is my street dog. Perfect for cruising around town and light trails with a little jumping thrown in. I even have a kid seat attached to the back for my rugrat (he digs it even more than me I think). We're like two kids cruising down the street. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$250.00 | | Purchased At: | Galyans | | Strengths: | The bike has a solid frame that supports my 6 foot, 185lb. body on rough trail riding. Tires and brakes are great. A great trail riding bike if you can handle no suspension. It will bring the kid out in you. | | Weaknesses: | After 6 weeks the chain broke, but that was from just riding hard up steep hills etc... The bike is pretty heavy because of the steel construction. You would have to go $200 more to get aluminum frame. | | Similar Products Used: | 04 Gary Fisher Marlin | | Bike Setup: | Stock except Serfas Men's RX seat and of course the skull and crossbone valve stem caps. | | Bottom Line: | I've not had this bike too long, but have ridden it very hard. This bike takes a lickin and keeps on tickin. I would reccomend this bike to anyone. I even choose to take this bike out on the trail still, even though I have my new Fisher Marlin. If considering on a 24" cruiser that is an all around good bike, buy this product, you can't go wrong. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
