Cutter Bones Bike
Broken Bones
By mas4850871 March 29, 2012
I am specifically writing this review to make the average, novice bike owner/purchaser aware that the Cutter frame is weak and "you do get what you pay for".
I purchased my Cutter Bones Bike off of Bonktown; I do admit, it was a steal at $250. It lasted for 6 months before the rear triangle completely bent appr. 4" out of alignment after hitting a small curb; the chain popped off the gears and grabbed the pedal thus locking up the bike and sending me into a 12ft skid. This seems like an extremely rare scenario. However, as seen in the photo, the tension placed on the chain was enough to bend the frame. The frame is cheap, "hi-ten" steal.
There is a lifetime warranty on the frame, but I have yet been able to contact Cutter Bikes; there is no phone number, email, etc. on their website.

I dunno, this sounds like a freak incident. My Bones bike has been extremely solid, and I've ridden it hard for almost 2 years. There is a contact page on their website, with a link at the very top. I've gotten great support from them regarding a bike pump that needed an O-ring.
