I see a distaste for Iverson's on this board, but is there REALLY anything wrong with them? I have one that I got just for riding around the hood, but if there is a real safety issue, I'd like to know.

Honestly, the 'it's heavy, and you can repair it with hand tools from Kmart' is a plus in my book. It isn't that heavy compared to my Giant Iguana, and I'm new to bike repair, so the no specialized tool is a plus for me.

For just riding around for leisure, is there anything safety related I should look out for?
