"lt looked great from the screen. but when i saw it, it had few problems.
1. it used same front wheel frame of 'punisher'. if you take a look at it, 'punisher' uses rubber brake and 'glacier' uses front disk brake. well, since both bike uses same frame, 'glacier' has 2 prongs (it's there to hold front rubber brake for 'punisher') that's not even painted, protruding. it looks really bad.
2. front disk pad keeps scrapping on the disk. i was told that as brake pad wares out i won't hear it. but it's been over 3 weeks riding everyday. i still hear it.
3. my impression of assembly was very simple. however it was nearly impossible for me to assebmble it and riding safely. so , i spend about $50 to assemble and tune up.
4. even after the bike was assembled by pro, the gear, especially front gear, doesn't work properly. in order to change from 1 to 3, i really have to work at it. and then make it even worse, sometimes chain rubs against gear changer making another scraping noise.
to sum up, i regret that i bought this bike. i could have bought something better with 1 year full warrenty for $75 more.
personally, i can't believe this bike is sold out. good luck to those who bought it."
