Waaay too much information



For $300 you would think you are getting an incredible deal or are you? I think all this information about this bike is too much and makes the add confusing. Someone who is going to buy $300 bike isn't going to care about this much detail about all the parts, which to be frank aren't that great. It's stock parts that came with the bike. Anyone can list the stock parts list, I would just highlight any upgrades. Maybe if the bike was being sold $3000 and all the parts were real bling, bling than all this information would be useful.

Still, this would be a great entry level bike for someone wanting to get a taste of the Kewlaid without making a big commitment.
