Mountain Sport Bike for Adult Youth Men Women, 24-26-Inch Wheels, 18-Speed Twist Shifters, Linear Pull Brake, Front Suspension, and Steel Frame

Bike is very nice. You may need two people to assemble it, although assembling it is not difficult to do.Seat is quite narrow, so, I recommend upgrading it for a wider, cushioned bike seat.Had to contact the manufacturer for a warranty issue. The response was superb, and the issue was solved within days. I recommend this bike and manufacturer.

Ordered this for my son’s 12th birthday. Amazon delivered on time and it came mostly out together which was awesome— no messing with the break lines or chain etc. y husband was able to finish the job fairly easily although be aware that the instructions are generic for more than one model ad it confused my husband because some of the instructions were already done for us— so if you get confused, it’s because it is steps that the factory did ahead of time. It is the perfect height for my kiddo at 5’ tall, and he has room to grow and raise the seat so it should last him for a while. I’m assuming the quality is good— he’s only ridden it for about an hour and he isn’t experienced with shifting gears yet, so I’m going on an assumption here.

This bike is poorly put together. All the gears like brakes will not perform their stop function and gears for derailleurs adjustments are impossible to take apart without breaking them due to everything being over-tightened. Amazon will not do any replacement and if you got the bike on sale, you are out of luck, andwill refund can take up to 45 days to get it. At the same time, if you want another bike you will have to come up with new money and pay for it at a higher price.Another option that Amazon likes is to tell customers to go to mfg for help so that they do have to deal with customers that need replacement. Pacific Cycle is a joke too! They will waste your time asking you to provide purchase info and bike info, and in the end, they will do nothing for you, just refer you back to Amazon for replacement or refund if you are within the refund period, and state that the bike was purchased through a third party which they cannot help you.

Look, this bike isn’t going to win any awards for design, weight, performance, or components. The tires will cause you grief if you take it on a MTB trail.…ok now that my fellow bike snobs are gone, let’s talk about this great casual bike. This is a fairly heavy steel frame bike with basic amenities like a front shock. The saddle is a fairly standard one that would be at home on a street bike, which is what many mountain bikes come with. It’s comfortable enough if you are accustomed to this kind of saddle, and is easily replaceable if you prefer something softer, more akin to a cruiser, or with anatomical cutouts for pressure relief. The saddle is also the only place there is a quick release lever on the bike. I would prefer them on my wheel hubs, but that’s not a deal breaker. I’ve just had one too many flats and would rather not need to carry a 13mm wrench with me on a ride.Let’s talk about the wheels. They are not bad, and the pattern is directional, so be aware of the arrow when installing the front wheel. They may be ok for a well groomed gravel trail, but the tread is really more suited to city riding and will provide some extra grip if you hit a wet patch.The breaks are side pull and adjustable. In fact, you will need to adjust them as part of assembly, so read the entire setup section so you know what to do. The frame does have mount points for center pull calipers if you prefer those.The hearing is nice for city cruising, and the twist to shift selectors are easy to use. While the front selector only has 2 gears to choose from, it also has about a dozen stops between “H” and “L”. That’s annoying if you’ve tuned everything correctly as you really only need two positions, but it does allow a little leeway in adjusting. How so? Good question! If you shift the rear gears and something is just slightly out of alignment, a click one way or the other on the front derailleur will quiet the chain rubbing. That’s nice and beginner friendly, so bonus for that.The handlebar stem is a fairly low profile, so you will be leaning forward over the frame, but it isn’t so long you’ll have your face over the headset as is popular with more aggressive riders. It’s a quill type stem, and if you prefer a more upright posture, it’s not an expensive or difficult piece to replace.Assembly isn’t too bad, but you will need tools. Metric Allen key wrenches, a cross head screw driver, and a set of open end metric wrenches. If you have combo wrenches with a ratchet in one end, those will be best and can tighten everything but the pedals. For those use either an open ended wrench, or an adjustable one. I used my beloved channel locks, as they have both the ability to properly close around a nut and thinner jaws than my adjustable wrench.My one mistake was on size. I usually ride a 26” frame and am 5’10”. The top bar on this bike would make a quick stop, well, uncomfortable. Not going to stop me from enjoying tooling around town, I’m just going to be using a curb whenever I have a chance at stops.Overall, I am really enjoying tooling around on this bike and look forward to my town’s monthly glow ride. A fun social ride at dusk every month.

It was a bit of a hassle to assemble it, as the brakes needed some adjustments, but my son loves it. It's fast, easy to ride, excellent bike for the money.The frame is a bit small, my son is 5'5" and I think he'll outgrow it when he reaches 5'8" (probably next year).

This bike looks nice but came with no mounting tools making it difficult to have the bike assembled.

Great bike! Have done a few trails with no issues.If you are slightly handy you should have no Ori one assembling this

Fairly easy to assemble. Rides well. We took the bike on beginner type trails in Southern CO area, and later Northern NM. Handled well, no issues at all over the terrain. Seat that comes with bike is not at all comfortable, but we purchased a cushioned cover to fit over it, and that made things better. We are happy with the purchase.
