Good Points
Light weight. Economical. Feels like riding a bmx type bike. Green living. Eye catcher.

Bad Points
Choice of colors. Not much really. Make sure all the locks are tight, especially the handle bars.

General Comments
I was very surprised how light the bike was being made of chomoly steel. Weight was a huge issue for me because it's a folder for a reason, right? I've used it for short rides, around 6 miles each way, just to get out and get some fresh air during my lunch break. The 7 speed comes in very handy and shifts rather smooth for the parts. I wouldn't see why anyone would want anything more assuming that their using this bike for short distances. If not, than they would be better off with a full size bike and more gears.
