3 Stars Buyer Beware
The shipping carton was torn and opened but save for two small scratches on the handle bars which due time constraints did not warrant a request for return. However three other problems (so far) arose:
1 - the wheel bearing over tightened as was the steering head. I had to grease one of the wheel bearings.
2 - both wheels had to be trued.
3 - rear tire inner tube blew. Had to spread the frame to re-install the wheel assembly.
Pretty bike cheaply made!
1 Stars Cheap Mulitspeed pre teen girls bicycle
Shipped in box that had a little damage…but it’s a bike…not a violin.
Put it together ok with no problems but noticed the back wheel a little wobbly.
Had to to tweak the brakes but that wasn’t a problem.
However, cannot adjust the speed changer beyond 2 speeds ( Still working on all of the derailer adjustments) and it’s very difficult to change speeds. My 9 year old cannot adjust it because it requires too much hand strength.
poor product but for [...] dollars wasn’t expecting a lot any way…
recommend going with more reknown low end bike makers such as Huffy and Schwinn.
2 Stars Flat tyre
When delivered the box had several holes in it. I assembled the bike relatively quickly. Had a problem with the front brake which would not release properly. Think I managed to fix it, but time will tell if this actually worked. The most annoying thing was that the back tyre had a puncture and would not inflate. Looks good on the stand, but it cannot be ridden.
4 Stars GREAT Service from Amazon
This is a good kids bike. It is not a performance bike by any means but very good for the money. The important part is this: The bike was delivered on time and was very easy to asssemble. Unfortunately once I had it together I realized that the freewheel was defective. This was a present for my Daughter’s birthday which at that time was 3 days away. I contacted Amazon via thier online process and they had a new one arrive at my home THE NEXT DAY with no questions asked. What great service! The second one was just fine and we still had it in time for her birthday. UPS picked up the defective bike at my front door and I didn’t even have to pay any additonal shipping for the replacement or the return. Kudos to Amazon! I don’t think I would have had customer service that good if I walked into a retail store. Buy with confidence! Amazon will make sure you are satisfied.
3 Stars Gears keep slipping off.
This is a great bike for the money. We basically bought it because we wanted our daughters next bike to have gears. The problem is that the gear keeps slipping off for no apparent reason and it gets wedged inbetween the smallest gear and the frame and is pretty difficult to get unstuck on the road. When this happens the bike just stops working but we started carrying tools with us to fix it. Arn’t sure how to fix it but will keep playing with it.
Other than that it fits our 51″ child perfectly with the seat as low as it goes and then we have lots of growing room in it. Shocks on the bike work well also. Kickstand is a little difficult to get up.
