Pros
Its Cromolly!!! i have put 2500 miles of trails on mine and still a very strong bike. blue paint is aslo fairly durable. The geometry for me seems to be right on, im 5'8" and with a 17 inch frame. also the wieght isnt even that bad.
Cons
The fact that nashbar has discontinued the frame.
Review
i recommend this bike to anyone looking for a bomb proof frame at a low price.

Pros
Good ol' steel frame for a hundred bucks,looks nice,disc brake or rim brake,built it up with whatever parts I had sitting around.Rides nice and has a good center of balance.At a hundred bucks,good price for building a commuter that might possibly get stolen.
Cons
The geometry of the length of the frame was too short for me,I am 6'2" with longer arms and legs and this frame just did not feel long enough for me.
Review
This is good steel frame to build a beater or urban commuter bike out of,can be ridden on the trail as well though,and for the price it's a worry free bike to have sitting around to get around town...
