rating bike i bought for my daughter

On: 2008-05-19

The bike is a gift for my daughter. When it arrived, she put it together and took it out for a ride. She said it rode well and it was easy to put together. The only bad thing about the bike she mentioned was that the handle bars and handle bar brake pads were hard to tighten along with the seat. Over all ,the bike bought for exercise performed well, and basically she wanted to get rid of middle age bulge since she returned to live with us later in life to help us with the household. We rate it 4 stars.

Beware

Do not buy this product. It came partially assembled in a box with several holes in it. No foam or other type protection. I should have known something because the rear derailer was sticking outside the box. The assembly directions were generic for all Huffy bikes. Pics of the handlebars, pedals, seat, etc looked nothing like this bikes. Instructions were OK for the brakes (as a kid, I adjusted these type brakes and luckily I remembered how). The directions to adjust the gears and derailers however were absolutely awful. It said certain parts were marked that were not and after about two hours of trying I gave up. The directions even said that I should take it to a bike shop for adjustment of the gears. Yeah, for $75!!! Needless to say, it was disassmebled and returned. Only good thing is Amazons tremendous return policy. Kudos to Amazon, but frowns to Huffy.

I ordered two bicycles they arrived in a timely mannor. The boxes were a bit torn up but all the parts were still intact.

very good bike for the money

I just assembled two of these and they are well built and have a heavy frame. For the price they are hard to beat. The brakes and derailers needed adjusting but that was no problem. They are a low-end bike but very servicable with nothing fancy.

Do Not Buy: This item arrived with missing part

When we ordered this bike. It arrived poorly shipped. The box was beaten to a pulp. It was missing key part such as the seat post clamp. and it was the wrong seat post. Because the seat post was narrow to belong to the bike we purchased. We had to spend an additional $80 to have a bike repair shop fix the problem. The brakes were improperly adjusted and the main handle bar was bent and loose. Also the wheels were slightly bent which makes riding this bike very difficult. I would stay away from this bike.
