$240.00 | | Purchased At: | Don't remember | | Strengths: | It's a great bike and has really good endurance. The original tires don't wear out easily and when I first bought it I loved it! It was my first bike and it was really easy to use - no technical gizmos or gadgets like most bikes! | | Weaknesses: | It doesn't have a kickstand so the handlebars get really beat up from being set on the ground unless you have a good place to put it. Also it doesn't have the best shocks so I wouldn't try anything to risky on it - especially if your a guy! My breaks also wore down very quickly and made it hard to stop. | | Similar Products Used: | I've used the Haro Backtrail X3 (my friend has one - though it recently got stolen) - and it was really good. It's practically a new and improved version - it has better shock absorption and a kickstand. The X3 also has a better break system. | | Bottom Line: | It's a great beginner bike and if you're more professional biking then you should get one of the newer versions of a Haro! If you like biking then this bike is for you - and if you're thinking of selling one don't make the same mistake I did! Don't sell it cheap! | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
