My favorite thing is the ability to add stuff onto the bike, the weight, and the handle bars. I'm suprised more bikes don't use these for comfort and to take pressure off the wrists. I've never owned a bike with suspension before and this feature excites me for when I'm riding on trails and unpaved roads. I have town it around the neighborhood and to a friend's house over 5 miles away... the ride is smooth. The seat is good, it doesn't pinch me anywhere unkind like others out there and plenty of cushion.
The only thing I do wish it had were more options for mounting fixed accessories. For my daily use, I'd like a spot on the left or right side of the frame near the fork (out of the way of my legs) so I can mount a holster for my carry weapon so it doesn't print through my shirt while I'm riding.
