Cycle World review of the Rocker
The November issue of Cycle World has a very positive review of the Rocker. Highlights include:
[ul][*]"Put flatly, the Rockers are an embarrassment to every bike builder - and manufacturer that has compromised handling performance for looks."[*]"The Rocker handles so lightly and predictably it's a shock to find that the rear tire is a 240 and not a 180 - in fact, there are many standard-style bikes with 180 or 190 tires that are heavier handling."[*]"They made a hardtail soft, they made a 240 tire handle, they made a chopper that performs"[*]"It is damn-*** fun to ride, not just look at. In doing either, the Rocker's got it right."[/ul]
Now if they could just get 'em into the dealerships.... [sm=headbang.gif]
