The 5 stars are based on its all round capability and value for money. Just under $500 it comes with decent Shimano gear, excellent brakes, Alexi rims and Tioga parts. So far its clocked 3000 kms in 7 yrs (on and off) of paved and unsealed roads, sun and rain and it sure can take a beating. The regular maintenance is mostly chain lubing and wheel trucing.

Handle bar angle,seat height and horizontal seat position is adjustable.
