Dan, I just got one of these bikes. So far, it's absolutely the worst bike I have ever seen. The welds are crap. You mentioned TIG welding, but mine looks like it was MIG welded based on the splatter I'm seeing. Does yours have good welds, or are they like mine? kzread.info/dash/bejne/nmhms9N8nMrWito.html

Just ordered in the matte black with all of the upgrades you mentioned: comfy seat, riser bars, platform pedals, bottle rack. Seems like it'll be great for both commutes around the city and light trails. Thanks for the tips!
