Niner makes some nice stuff! Steel is real, ti is fly, wood is good and aluminum and carbon don't rhyme so you can't ride 'em!

The Breezer is OK but not a top choice, random no-name brakes are a deal breaker for me. Shimano or Tektro or Magura or even SRAM (now) make excellent quality brakes no need for C-Star. I will say the history of the company is cool as Joe Breeze built the first actual mountain bike in the U.S. but those brakes aren't the move.
