Customer Comments
This bike has a very light frame, and wheels. It is made of aluminum. It handles excellent, provides very comfortable ride and is also very easy to put together. The price is low compared to the quality that you get. – K. Petri
I bought this bicycle for my wife, and paid less than $110 with free shipping. I received a lot more bike than what I had expected. She tells me it is the most comfortable bike she has ever ridden. She is 5′11″, so if you are short this might not be the right bike for you. Putting it together was easy, but it will still require a tune up. For the money you can’t get a much better bike, and I did lots of research. – J. Cohen
I love riding around with this bicycle. I like how the bicycle rides like a cruiser, sitting in upright position, but it is very tough for light mountain biking. I did have a difficult time assembling the bike, particularly getting the brakes and gears adjusted with correct tension. Still, I am not sure that my gears are adjusted entirely, as the top gear does not appear to engage, but it works out fine enough so I’m not bothering to readjust it. I also bought a tire pump that had a pressure gauge on it because you will be surprised how much air requires to be put in it before reaching the right pressure. Anyway, after all is said and done, the bicycle rides very well and it is very comfortable. I even rode it in the woods and it handled the terrain very well. The tires are excellent for rougher terrain. I was disappointed that the bike did not have any holes to install a water bottle holder. All in all, an excellent bike, and Amazon’s price is much better than a couple of the retail stores that I checked. – S. Kusek
