ya dude, avents are great bikes, just the neo wasn't designed with gussets between the top and down tubes, but the guys over at avent have addressed this problem and added the gussets on all new pro and up sized neos, so they should definatly be stronger.......i got a tr7 as a replacement on the way......so yeah by all means order up an avent they're great bikes lots of them are being riden around here where i race and they all love them
