I think the flaws are that the acceleration is lower that at the other bikes and the suspention is shorter, so it wont take so much jumping as the other bikes. And the ground clearance is lower also. so u cant go through so big obstacles. Its a good bike to learn on. I´ll get it in march so i can give you more info then (allthough i dont think you´ll need it then) I chose it because the DT is out of my credit range and because i´m use to my broken up TOMOS so i think a slower start is better
