I have purchased this bike nine months ago, and was a good buy for me. To start with it grabbed me as the smarter buy, but then simply continued to impress ride after ride. It turns and stops like a gem, and with a touring seat provides armchair comfort for hours.The negative would be the rear suspenssion is both soft and noisy. The bottom line is the storm is an excellent allrounder capable of a wide array of ride requirements. The style and design of this bike is amazing, and peoples turns around and see this bike all time when I was on road, also the performance of this bike is amazing. I suggested all my friends to buys it.
