Our Review

Reviewed: by Visordown
Unlike tank tops, flares, centre partings and Suzuki Bandits, wheelies never go out of fashion.

With all due respect can we have a little more detail to the review please?  3.5 stars isn't great but as far as I can tell from teh review it simply doesn't do wheelies?
