The bike is great, we like it a lot. It has the ability to be taken apart in pieces which suit our need of travelling by public transport. The small wheel is strong, the frame is a bit whippy but comfortable which is good for touring, feel secure when riding hard on the saddle and descending in high speed, though we are skinny, 250 lbs.
However, there are things that we don't like. The original Origin 8 brakes failed catastrophically and were replaced by Avid BB7, the 160mm discs were later upgraded to 200mm front and 185mm rear. Since the bike is long and heavy and sometimes I have to maneuver it by lifting with the stoker's handle bar, the anodised aluminium seat collars were not strong enough in particular those at the captain's seat mast, they were subsequently replaced by BF with steel collars.
