Looks comfy and fast... error in product description, tho

Please note that the product description is incorrect: it is for a Cadillac mountain bike with disc brakes. This bike has regular caliper brakes, although the more expensive Cadillac comfort bike Amazon offers does have the disc brakes. Looks like a nice high-quality aluminum-frame comfort bike that most people would like and which is a lot faster than a cruiser bike.

A little more info please!!!!

First of all, this is a great bike! And I would give it 5 stars except for these things.....1) The box comes with large letters on the side that say, "Must be put together by a certified bike putter-together! (my paraphrase)" 2) Putting it together takes metric tools and the manual is not really a lot of help--and you can try to reach someone at Cadillac for questions, but they dont answer their phones very well. We ended up doing a google search and found a nice man who is a Cadillac bike dealer in a small town in Oklahoma who answered his phone and helped us, even tho we didnt by the bike from him (and he says he gets calls every week from people just like us who have bought a bike and cant get someone to answer the phone at Cadillac to answer questions, so he helps them.) 3) The warranty was one of the reasons that we bought these bikes--and putting it together ourselves voids the warranty--something we found out AFTER buying the bike! 4) The information on the Amazon site about this bike was actually about a different Cadillac bike model so it didnt have all the features we thought we were buying.

So why 4 stars???? As far as the bike itself is concerned--we love it! It is a great, well-made bike and my husband and I have enjoyed riding them (we bought 2 bikes at the same time), but we felt it was not as easy to put together as stated, help is not easily available, and if you are buying it for the great warranty, you must realize unless you go to a bike shop and pay them to put it together, you have voided the warranty!
