[Review] Eastern Sequence
   by Koolaidguy | 18 Jun 2006 10:08 am

So i got this bike because it was the only street bike i could find with front brakes and a gyro so i could do some flat with it also. It bought it for $330(USD) and was a pretty good bike for the price. Full chromo frame and fork, 3pc crank, sealed hubs, 33-12 gearing, only 30lbs.

But then there are the bad parts. Unsealed hubs, hi-ten steel bars, wellgo pedals, and tektro brakes. Still not bad for the price but at least get some chromo bars. So far the bike has held up well. Some problems i have had so far are the cranks, they loosen up quite a bit but not too bad. i have snapped my chain a couple of times because the sprocket and backwheel arent aligned(came like that).Seat(Eastern tight ass) has already ripped up. Grips wore down fast(Eastern I.D. grips) and came with plastic bar ends. But other then that the bike has held up quite fine.


  • Full chromoly frame and fork
  • Tig Welded Frame and Fork
  • Internal headset
  • 14mm Axles
  • Cassette hub
  • 33/12 gearing
  • 48-hole double-wall alloy rims
  • Sealed press-fit internal BB
  • 3pc chromoly cranks
  • 2pr of pegs
  • Eastern seat and grips
  • 20.5" toptube
  • Weight: 30 lbs.

    So overall i give this bike an 8.5/10, it has held up real nice and i would recommend it.b


  • Costs: about $
    330 USD
