Thanks for the great info! I saw an ad on craigslist for $800. Being that it’s going to be my first bike, I thought it would be a great first bike. Obviously, I need a reliable bike to learn on and less time to fix/maintain. I don’t even like cruisers, I prefer standard or sport, but the price is just so enticing. I guess I will avoid the phantoms because, as you’ve pointed out, getting replacement parts will be difficult. I would like to grow with my future bike (learning the ins and outs of a bike), but not if I can’t find any replacement parts.
