    Did you ride it? Does it fit? Will you want to spend a lot of time with it?

    If you don't know what you want or need in a bike you'll probably buy something you won't be happy with even if the specs are good. Go to a bike store.

    yes I rode it and it fit but what I want to know is the reputation as in does it break down alot? Has anyone heard good or bad about this brand. I like to know what I am getting into if i take it, that is all.. if it going to cost me alot to maintain it then I rather let it pass no matter how cheap it is.. I already have a few bikes.. I was going to make this a winter bike Peace
