I don't understand this mentality I have owned 2 kilo tts, still own a jury and an outcast 29er

Kilos killed both wheels sets within a month of owning them granted I am a manimal and weight over 200#
I also killed the powerspline cranks that used to come on them however both bikes are still on the road 4 and a half years later

3 months into it the 29er wheels failed so I replaced them the headset and bars now 2 years later the cranks have failed on me and are getting replaced next pay day

the jury well that was built with hand picked parts and is about a year old

seriously I don't get where you guys get off with all the hate it is a good cheap started bike for someone

Hell there was a guy from montreal at NACCC 2007 racing a bone stock windsor in the alleycat and at velo city

so seriuosly shun the non believer shun the non believer
Hate to put words in peoples' mouths, but I believe he was talking about the kid stopping riding. Not him breaking a new bikesdirect bike because it's cheap.
