Owner Reviews

by Bob D  on 6 Feb 2011
Loved my 2009 FCR 3 but it was stolen at the grocery store. Turns out it's one of the best things that ever happened to me. The Rapid 1 just flat out flies I would never have known how great a bike can be. It's a work of genius for the money it costs. Changed the seat out to a Forte softail from Performance bike made it comfortable like crazy.

After 900mls i brought my rapid1 back for service due to a dreadful clicking sound from the B/Bracket, after testing and repair i put it through a test spin and after 10 mins the Chinese torture started again, overall the bike is a pleasure to ride, its unfortunate i'm having to don ear plugs to drown out the infernal clicking, poor quality for a bike that was over 900 euro in Dublin.
