So, i bought a used Giant Cypress about 6 months ago. I use it on recreational trails [my favorite being and D & R canal Trail] and i use it to commute to school/work (unless the weather is stormy/rainy).
I love my bike, even though its kinda big - (a Medium Frame with 28 in wheels/tires on and i m 5'7'')
I bent both wheels before trying to go up a really steep incline [+52.4ft elevation gain], but i m happy that they re fixed, although i was told that if i bend the rear one again i ll have to buy another wheel (instead of just fixing it)
