Great value for money!
By M. Eldridge on Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2021
I'm 6'2" and the largest frame is the perfect size! I'd only ever used gear shifters mounted to the handlebars prior to purchasing this bike, but the frame mounted shifters were fairly easy to get used to. They actually feel sturdier than any shifters I've used previously, and I've not yet needed to tune them in 4 months of riding. The wheel alignment was surprisingly good straight out of the box. I usually expect to have to make adjustments with these cheap bikes from China, but tweaking a few spokes in the rear wheel was all it took to make both wheels true. If you don't own a spoke wrench, I recommend getting this assembled at a professional bike store. To the multiple commenters complaining about the pedal/crank arms falling off - this is operator error. You need a socket wrench to screw the cranks on REALLY tight, and a regular wrench to get the pedals REALLY tight. I made this mistake with the first bike I bought my wife from Walmart. Once they start to loosen, the thread gets more damaged with every rotation of the pedals. In that case, I had to replace the crank - not the end of the world, and lesson learned; I now tighten the pedals and cranks on really hard, and have had no problem since. If you're on the fence about buying this bike because of the negative reviews, I would encourage you to go for it! If you know how to assemble a bike you won't be disappointed. FYI my daily commute is 12.5 miles each way, mostly on roads and a few paved trails. I bought 25mm gatorskin continental tires at the same time as the bike (the cheap tires that come with these bikes are hopeless for commuting in the DC region - you'll get a puncture every week). It makes my commute a lot more fun!

Wrong manual. Loose stem. Terrible bike.
By Kristen on Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2020
It was awful.... I returned it and got a refund. The manual that came with it was for a completely different bike.... there were no instructions for how to properly put on the gears...and the place that it shows them at in the online photo was too wide to actually properly fit them because the screw was too short.... the stem for the handlebars would not lock into place properly, so every time you tried to turn the handlebars, the entire stem would turn instead of the bike tire.... would have been slightly more helpful had the instructions actually gone with this bike, but like I said... they didn’t.... the bike also was supposed to be a “small” and seemed rather large, even for a road bike. Would not recommend. Would give zero stars if I could...
