Have you had any problems with it so far? How fast can you get on it? Thinking of buying one

No major problems, had to replace some small parts that broke on me. It’s not too fast since it’s pretty heavy, the fastest I’ve had is 33 mph down a hill. I’d say it’s good for recreational riding. Thanks

Sometimes the weight helps for speed down a hill. I've had a 55 pound e-bike coasting down a hill to 39MPH, but it was the steepest around here. Without a speedometer I'm guessing my 35 pound Marin hybrid would of made the same speeds on the other (lesser) ones; 33 or more. What that takes for me is confidence in the stability of the bike and the tires. To me even steel road bikes are light. 35 to 25 pounds is 2/7th less weight which would seem like featherweight at first.

Ok so what broke on the OM parts? Also how much use before they did break on you?

ANY bike goes as fast as the rider can push it, the bike is an inanimate object until the rider pedals it.

Downshifting feels okay. I actually haven’t ridden it in a while.

Hows the derailure, shifters drive train? I want one but hear they crap. Not many 80s steel to choose from at affordable price

It’s okay, it has some issues shifting on certain gears, I should take it into a shop really. But I’d prefer a more modern shifter

@@BVL4JC I may buy anyway and upgrade later. 22lbs 10 ounce on their site. Seems pretty light for a steel bike. I personally just like older looks.

I just had some work done on my six year old Marin hybrid. My gearing issues were slow to come but irritated me. The bike shop repairman I took it to replaced the chain, the rear cassette, and I think one of the cables too. He didn't get it right the first time, but he got it nice after it was obviously a cassette problem. There was some distortion wear on the teeth probably from all the stand ups for the hills around here.

I think the old school shifter is an asset. Very uncomplicated and true to form.
