 Awesome bikeJun 22, 2007
By Jamerican J
This bike is an excellent buy, for the money. Free 2 day shipping? You can't beat that. Arrived on time. Assembly was fairly easy. Bike Rides Smoothly and is very fast. I'd recommend you get a better seat for it though, because the one that comes with it is very stiff and uncomfortable. I'd recommend the "Schwinn No Pressure" seat its on 13.99 , and its very soft and comfortable.

Great ride for the money.Apr 05, 2008
By Lori Ziemba
"book worm"
For $150 plus free shipping, you can't go wrong with this bike. What a deal! I love it, it's a really great bike. I would have given it 5 stars, except it does have a few (minor) bad points:
1) The seat is HARD and I found that the forward edges cut into the backs of my thighs. I had to replace the seat with an ergonomically designed-for-women seat.
2) I'm not a big girl (5'5"), but I felt like the seat was too close to the handlebars. I had a hell of a time adjusting it. I finally solved the problem by reversing the socket under the seat.
3) It was VERY hard to fit a rack on the back. I bought one of those "universal" racks, and I really had to fiddle with it to make it fit, including going to the hardware store and buying new bolts. The little holes on the bike where you are supposed to attach the supports for the rack are bigger than the standard bolts that come with a rack. Very inconvenient.
4) The paint was dinged up on the frame.
All in all, tho, I really like the bike and would recommend it to anyone who wants a cheap, sturdy ride.

Cruiser 7SpeedJul 17, 2007
By P. Falkenberg
This bike is perfect for someone re-entering the bicycle world. The handle bars are comfortable and you are able to sit up straight. The gears shift with a slight turn of the right hand. The bicycle, however arrived with a large scratch and no seat. I had to purchase a cruiser seat at my local bike shop, which Amazon gladly refunded the cost. If you want a bike to cruise around your neighborhood, this is it!

Nice bikeSep 23, 2007
By Eric C. Carlson
Great bike, no troubles. I'm a mechanic by trade and having and working
on many bikes in the past it was a breeze to assemble, the derailure needed some fine tuning to get it to run perfect but that was expected.
I read the reviews before I bought this bike and one person said the "left" pedal threads were not correct when they tried to assemble it, here is a note to the novice, the left pedal has left handed threads, so it needs to be threaded into the crank in the opposite direction as the right pedal.

 Great Bike but arrived with scratchesDec 09, 2007
By Kara Williams
I bought this bike as a gift for my mother. Even though it came completely wrapped in foam, it had some scratches like it was slighty used. It was also missing a part to attach the seat to the bike. (It arrives unassembled) We took the bike to a local bicycle shop and they were able to provide the missing part for free. My mom didn't care about the scratches because they were so minor but I still felt as if it should have arrived in PERFECT condition. Other than that, it is a sturdy bike and my mom loves it.
