The Sand Point sold at a price
point lower than Burley has ever attempted before. At $799 retail it
looked like a good value but component problems caused Burley to
permanently discontinue this model. This bike used the frame, fork,
seat, handlebars, wheels and brakes of the Koosah. What's different was
the drive train (crank, derailleurs and shifters). They were much lower
quality, too bad.
Burley also showed their
commitment to continuing improvement by working on their seat with good
results. The Corbin seat Burley was using in 2001 was not well received.
In 2002 Burley doubled the foam thickness in the seat base and changed the
cover from the leather some riders found slippery to imitation leather.
They also increased the amount of un-recline adjustment in the seat back.
While they were at it they got the seat to slide more easily on the frame
and lock securely, so that is fixed too. The new seat base stay in place
better and they are working on making it easy to adjust with just a 6mm
Allen wrench. Both the slide and lock well fix and the 6mm Allen wrench
fix are easily retrofit-able, see your Burley dealer.
The Hep-Cat will use the original Corbin seat till they run out of them.
