I agree, the bike works very well for me. I've had no serious problems, the rack even lasted me through a 3100 mile trip without breaking (I did replace it later). The gearing worked well for me going over several mountain ranges as well. My only real complaint with it was the stock seat. The bike may not be perfect for all to start out, but I love mine.
