Not worth the price

On: 2007-04-26

I am surprised this bike has gotten good reviews; I am quite diappointed. I purchased this bike after looking at many mountain bikes and decided that this seemed to be a good buy. However, it turned out not to be so. First of all, the bike is really ugly with its white and brownish colors, though I suppose thats a personal issue.

As for performance, this bike is not worth its stated price of over $200, so dont think you are getting some great deal. The suspension leaves something to be desired and it seems to be shifting funny. I am not an expert on bikes, but Im pretty sure shifting is supposed to be a little smoother than this.

Also, after about a week, I noticed a strange noise coming from the bike as I peddled. Its hard to explain... almost like something is out of place.

So again, the bike is not worth this price. Perhaps if it were being sold for around $100 it would be a decent deal.

Great Casual Bike

I bought this bike after not riding since I was 14 (32 now). The box arrived in excellent condition and the bike was nearly completely assembled. I also had a little trouble with adjusting the front brake but got it figured out. Overall this is a great bike for those casual trips around town. Im not a trail seeker, so have never tried it off road. Very happy with the quality and ease of assembly.

Solid all-purpose bike

The bike was delivered 70% (rough guesstimate) put together. It was relatively easy to complete myself (only had to use manual a few of times) and im certainly no expert.

The only problem I encountered, was getting the front brake pads to align properly on the tire. With that being said.... I spent a few dollars at our local bike/cycle shop to have it looked over (basic tune-up service) to make sure it was safe to ride.

The bike now rides nicely and serves as my cruise around town bike. Overall, I think this is good value for the money... but only if youre looking for a hybrid type bike for shorter (more casual) trips.
