Great Price
Despite seeing other reviews I've found the bike to be very sturdy with no quality problems. It was easy to put together and with a new comfier saddle, basket, rear bike pannier and mud guards it's a very good price for a basic starter Bike for both on and off road use.

Wouldn't buy absolutely awful it's supposed to be a man's bike more like a teens pedal snapped with in a day all the thread wear the pedal screws into has been worn down so it's completely no good avoid this product

Mostly good
Been using this a month now . Mostly good with the exception of the of the cranks that the pedals attach to coming loose and falling off. I am not a bicycle mechanic but I managed to re attach it PLus am still gettting use to the ideal of adjusting the derailer Am still getting used to understanding how to maintain and care for the bike. Usable but not without faults.

The peddle has come off and keeps coming off and squeaky already. I am able to take it back and get a other one though as within 30 days so that's a bonus
