"Good first bike. Good value for the money."Mark T

(4)

Ease of use

3 ring up front. Takes a bit to get used to the right gear combinations.

(5)

Quality of Construction

Good finsih on all welds and no flaws in paint job.

(5)

Fit

Good fit, geometry of frame appears to be standard.

(4)

Comfort

Stock seat needs replacing. It is a "hard" ride. Smooth ride otherwise.

(5)

Adjustability

Came with carbon fiber seat post and adjustable handle bar stem

(4)

Durability

Yet to be seen, only had it a few days.

(4)

Appearance

Nice looking blue, black and silver combination. Not the I look fast sitting still appearance, but everything routed out of the way and neat.

(5)

Customer Service

Excellent customer service from my LBS, Spin City. Highly recommend them. Had no interaction with Giant CS.

(4)

Performance

Feels solid when really pushing hard, no twisting. Stock brakes make a lot of noise.

Strengths

Solid construction. Lightweight for the price.

Weakness

Uncomfortable seat. Shifters take a bit of adjusting to get them to shift and stay.
