I'm pretty certain that bike was made in the USA....
this bike was made in china.
Anyway, I was browsing throug the forums today and was reading about people who broke spokes. I had a 2002 quazar raptor bike which broke 1 spoke but it was rideable. Then in march 2004, i broke another spoke and it was dead. Right there and then.
Read all about it here.
