I've seen some video and they seem stout enough to jump, how long before they bend, I don't know...
You have a line on one for a good deal?
If I'm not mistaken, the guy that designs them was a flexi designer years back... so they are probably similar, and I like the flexi's, they seem real nice for that style of bug...

I was thinking about purchasing one sometime in the future, (probably late spring/ early summer) because they are significantly cheaper than the other models that I've been looking at. This will be my first buggy, so I wanted an cheaper, introduction buggy that I can learn/ screw around with before I decide on upgrading to a serious buggy. This one looks to fit the bill. I have also heard that they are very lightweight, but I have not heard anything about premature deformation.

If your 13 years old and weigh less than 100pounds you can use it to roll around.

Jumps?

maybe one or two but more than that you will be trying to restraighten the rear axle or trying to drill out the broken off rear axle bolts.

good points:
you can take it apart and fit it in the trunk of almost any car.
it has more back support than a standard lynn.

like they always say "you get what you pay for"

PS. if it is used watch out the first series has real problems with the seat comming apart when it gets bumpy.

PSS. If you would ask me I would tell you buy a standard V-Max. It is a great buggy to learn in, and over time you can modify it up to fit your needs without having to reinvest alot of money.
