Post by: meticulous on August 07, 2008, 09:02 PM: i was out on mine last week and i broke down 4 times,

1/ the bottom bracket came loose.
2/ brake block came loose.
3/ front chain wheel to rear sprocket was making an alignment grind when under acceleration, which was quick as i am a fat 16 stone.

4/ the stem came loose on the vector bars, and when i tightened, the ledge at the bottom cracked.

by this point my, i hate to say this, but my nice thoughts about these bikes was rapidly deminishing, and was truely fookin peed off :2gunsfiring_v1:

anyone want to buy a gen 1 ???

supose being twice the wieght i used to be plays a part here :'(

this version of the 'freestyler' is a stinker

however, obviously, i will have to have one, for the 'stash'
