Advantages: good brakes fork and frame better than its competitors
Disadvantages: long stem

...I bought a GT avalanche over a year and a half ago and I can easily say it is a great bike I do a lot of cross country mountian biking and the bike is great for the up hills and downhills. The frame is light and strong and is great value for money. The brakes are hydrolic so there is a lot of stopping power and for a bike at this price it is a bargin. The gears work great there are 27 in total and the shimano deore is a great rear mech. The rock shock forks on this bike are study and absorb the bumps allowing for nice following ride. they are 100 mm and there is a lock out feature. After over a year of heavy usage this bike has had little in the way of faults so is well worth the money.... Read review

Advantages: It's a great little city/town/country car. Its fabulously economic.
Disadvantages: No power steering on this particular model.

...any problems or complaints, I'm 5 foot 10 but no one has ever complained of being really squashed sitting behind me. My one is a top of the range model. New, it came with alloys, a CD player and drivers and passenger airbags. Some of the little things in the car are the things I love the most. The little storage compartments on the center console are ideal. I think the electric mirrors became standard on them, my first one, a 1995 model had them too. The only thing I wish mine had is power steering but steering is much lighter in the 1.0 anyway, so its not a problem. The exterior looks suprisingly modern when next to newer cars. Things were a lot different 10 years ago! Looking at the front of mine, it looks quite low but totally awesome. I could look at it all day, I love mine! For a small car, it really is very practical... Read review
