Good deal if it fits. Just remember the Bowery is not the lightest bike on the market. Pretty heavy actually but I hear its burly. Can withstand some abuse.

If it fits you then this is a steal. BUY IT. A buddy of mine has one. I've ridden it but it was way to small for me but seemed pretty nice and was all stock components.
