Go here and click on Geometry >>> http://gravitybikes.com/specialty/attack.html

funny, I emailed them yesterday and they just replied saying that they just put up the geometry - guessing they happened to be putting it up there when i emailed them - if not that is pretty good customer service!

We have been selling Gravity branded bikes for about 12 years or so. However, we are now going to stock and sell a lot more in 2011 and 2012; especially the new Gravity 29ers will be super strong sellers. Liberty level road have also sold really well.

lots of new models at http://gravitybikes.com/ and for 2012 there will be a bunch more and graphics will be updated and look rather nice I think.

But it should be noted that with Gravity and most other brands; some models come from factory a, and some from b, and some from c -- so with any bike it is hard to say that quality on any given model can be inferred from the Brand name.

All that said; Attack [which maybe a poor name] has sold in large numbers and we are not hearing of any issues.
I think it is a good deal if someone wants a 'road' type geo SS/FG in Aluminum - and certainly the price is right when compared to many AL SS/FG that you see.

Ordered a white 54cm last Friday, will update everyone when I receive the bike.
This is my third BD bike. I've owned a 50cm Kilo TT, a 54cm SST, and a 54cm Hour (back when the SST and Hour had FSA cranks).

First off I must say I was eying the SST also, may possibly get one in the future. I ordered my Gravity Attack back in October on eBay from seller chicabike, as one of you noted. Fortunately, for anyone interested now Bikes Direct doesn't have the extra $39 shipping. I like to think I paid more for getting it so early. The seller has had the bike in stock at least since August. I'm new to biking, but now I ride almost everyday on my college campus. I haven't replaced any parts just b/c i'd like to see how long this holds up stock. I'm very satisfied with the quality. If worse comes to worst I'd still have a decent set of wheels and a very nice fork.

The first things I'll replace are the tires. Wish I could give you miles, but I'm getting weary. I was certain i was gonna get a flat in downtown l.a, but all went well. Cog looks cheap to me, but it does the job and finally, i always wonder about the Bottom Bracket.(no idea whats in there). Despite these minor concerns i've been pushing up hills and bombing some with ease.

Like I said I'm just getting into biking , but I recommend this bike. Created an account just to help you guys out. and i do have friends that spend far more than I do on bikes. they approved after it came in. peace =]
