sweet deal. i picked this up on a tday sale.
got this for 30 bucks less by buying it on a tday sale. didn't even realize it was on sale!! lol. it got here today, box was damage. but the contents we all unscathed. took me about 20 mins to put it together. would have been less, but my pet pig wanted to help. he enjoys using the petals as a scratching post. tires come partially inflated, just ad air to your liking. saved me a few minutes on pumping. frame is thick, was easy to finish assembly. rims are standard rims, which i'll eventually replace with mags. for the price of $70, it was worth every penny. i might buy a few more of these for project bikes.Update feb 2020: bikes still going strong. Been modified to accept a motor too. Frame holding up great. Just one piece of advice, don't jump off a 15 foot wall with this bike. The rims will smash. Yup, i did it at 25mph. Frame held up great. Just all the weight of me and the motor, well back rim didn't like that very much. Great bike, great price. I will be buying another one, but in green, very soon. Strong steel frame, worth it for heavy duty riding. Aluminum can't handle the stress, but steel begs for more. 5 stars all the way and thats after almost 2 years of brutal motorized trail riding. Love this bike.

Just right
My 10 year old son loves it! He is small for his age and is just able to fit on it with a lot of room to grow.

Good for a while, but has developed shifting problems.
In most respects this is a nice bike BUT something is wrong with the rear shifter. It worked well for the first few days but got harder and harder to downshift. Everything seems to move freely when the cable is disconnected. Twist grip is smooth and moves easily, cable slides easily (both halves) and the shift arm by the wheel moves fine too. But when all assembled, you have to use incredible force to get that twist grip to turn and sometimes even that does not do it. No idea what's up.

Missing parts. Useless assembly instructions which could be so much more clear.
Since most smaller bikes are sold out I had to purchase this model and it WAS NOT EASY to put together. The package was missing the seat clamp so, beware. The instructions are useless if you’ve never put a bike together and you are lacking certain tools. The bolt on handlebar is so tightly screwed in it can’t be adjusted. It almost looks painted on. The instructions on attaching font wheel are basically missing. I had to watch a YouTube video to figure out what I’d done wrong and I will probably have to take to a bike shop to have reassembled. Trust me, if you buy this bike, watch a YouTube video on how to assemble. I wish I’d done that sooner. I’m sure the bike isn’t safe to ride at this point and of course, no seat clamp and now, handlebars won’t attach correctly. I’m sure the bike is okay for the money if you have assembled bikes, but watch a video if you’ve never put a bike together. Covid has made getting local help impossible. Ordered from Speedys Wharehouse, who said they could not replace the seat clamp because they don’t make them. I can return, but the box is history since it arrived completely in tatters and was shipping taped to hell. Speedys was not unpleasant; just not very helpful. I’m sure the made in China factor doesn’t help. The one star was because of the instructions and missing parts. I have no idea if the bike is any good because I can’t ride it.

Funky Derailer Mount
The derailer has a bolt and special nut that allows it to mount to the slot in the frame for the rear wheel axle. The derailer mounting bolt limits the rear axle's travel to about 1/2 the slot depth on the right side. The left side had a full range of travel. This wouldn't have been a big deal, but the chain that came with the bike was long enough to where it would slip off, and I could not slide the rear-wheel any further back because of the derailer mount on the right side.I took a link out of the chain to shorten it, then reassembled the bike, and that corrected the chain slipping issue and also improved the tension on the derailer.5th gear was difficult to adjust on the derailer. The derailer kept shifting from 6th gear to 4th gear, bypassing 5th. After playing with the cable adjustment for about an hour, I managed to find a good compromise for the shifting issues, but I am still not very happy with the derailer, derailer mounting method, and derailer adjustability.

Unreliable Seller - Awesome Deals and Discounts
We purchased this bike in the middle of June from Awesome Deals and Discounts with an expected delivery date 4-6 weeks out. We received confirmation the bike shipped but no tracking number. It has now been 7 weeks and the seller has notified us that the bike has been CANCELLED. Very disappointed Grandson! I do not recommend working with this seller.

Do not buy
All the cables are positioned where they hit the boys legs, shifting is not in sync and noisy and causing the chain to come off over and over.

Gears don’t work.
Nice and pleasant bike, but lost three stars due to gears being almost impossible to adjust, it’s a very bad feature on quite a decent bike.
