ya I just looked at your bike on their website,

http://www.wethepeople.de/2004/product.php?nr=59

and it looks like it wouldnt be good for street. Just because, #1 it has no gyro or detangler, and #2, maybe it's just me, but I hate bikes with hard unpadded seats, especially when you land hard and maybe happen to land on the seat, that bike looks like a racing/jumping bike, that's why it only weighs 30 point somethin pounds. I don't know if anyone agrees, but thats my opinion.

yea that one has no gyro or detangler like jrt said so u cant do barspins or any tricks that u move your handlebars with, but it's your choice

the bike is set up just fine for street riding, a gyro is hardly a necessity right off the bat, and if in the future you decide you need one, its a hell of an easy install.

looks like a great bike, if you like it, get it!!! If the seat doesnt suit you find an old Haro Mirra seat, they're bigger than some pillows!!!
