Its a great looking bike with good parts but is assembled somehow sloppy and has some week design decisions.
#1 It has a nice disc brake at the front. Looks mighty, it is not. At first I'm not sure if it is used ideally by pressing the exterior brake pad (moving) on the brake disk to press it against the inner brake pad (stay rigid) instead of pressing both brake pads against the brake disc ... it looks somehow odd to press the disc out of its orbit for braking and I have seen linear pull brakes performing better.
It also has the problem of having a trade of brake performance against a clean run without grinding contact against the brake pads.
And on top of this it looks to me that the brake disc is mounted in the wrong direction. The arrow on the disc brake is not pointing in the same direction as the forward rotation of the wheel as stated in the owners manual.
#2 The nice varnished front fender is noticeable askew and its fastening with four screws without nuts simply going through the surface ... sorry but this is amateurish.
#3 The side stand is nice and firm and works on perfectly even ground only. If the ground is not even the bike toppels over very easily.
#4 This applies to my unit only but it was missing some cable fasteners along the frame and had no nur or whatever to mount the rear reflector on the fender.
Positively to mention it had vial of varnish included (apparently to fix scratches).

Very cool chopper styling with a hand painted finish. The bike is just awesome in the sunlight and the flake sparkles like no other. The hand painting frightens me a little on mods, but I do plan on chopping the rear fender to give it a more agressive look and battery power the bike. I plan on this bike doing around 50 mph without pedalling so it will be as impressive to ride as well as look at! I look forward to posting those images and more when it is done! The only reason for 4 stars is the rear fender was tweaked (bent) a bit in shipment and a lever broken, though I found 2 additional levers in box, don't quite understand it, but it is all good!
