Missing one tiny screw and a slightly bent front mud guard. Other than that absolutely mint. Superb value for the money.
Only reason its four star is because gears needs a bit of adjustment and there was a bend on the fork, but not a showstopper and I got discount for the fork and unbent it myself – I could have refunded but rather take discount because it runs nicely now so I’m attached to it.
Item was almost assembled in the box, took about 40 minutes to put together. One of the front fork axle receivers had taken a knock and had to be bent back into shape before the wheel would fit. Good strong rack on the back and metal mudguards. Got a feeling I’ll be replacing gears and upgrading at least the front crank to 2 or three speeds but should last for weekly local shopping trips mostly on the level.
Because if the price I was frankly expecting something very entry level. I’m not serious about cycling and wanted something that I could use leasurely to get around London. It’s actually a very nice bike. Looks fantastic and its solid. On the road its comfortable and velvety smooth. If assembling it is not complicated but if you’ve never done it before I’d say that its a good idea to spend an extra 50 or so and have a full checkup done.
good quality bike for the price, the 18 inch frame is however very large so if you aren’t very tall buy the 16 inch
Easy to setup comfortable locally not ridden it far yet.looks substantial machine
Easy to assemble. I love it! Nice colour. Comfortable to go around with.
If you are willing and able to take the front wheel and the saddle off when you are going to leave the bike parked up, the quick release fittings would make that easier. But if you’re not going to take them off, the quick release fittings just make them a whole lot easier to steal :-/
Other than that, I was pleasantly surprised how well equipped the bike is and that it arrived mostly assembled and only needed the front wheel and mud guard and the seat post and saddle fitting. It has a rear carrier, front and rear reflectors, front and rear spoke reflectors, a bell and even a prop stand!
I put this together in 15 minutes with the tools supplied..
I bought this as a 4 miles flat road commuter. It does exactly what I wanted.
7 gears okay but not great range uphill..
The gearing is cheap I will probably replace this within a year.
Bike just arrived takes about 1 hour to put together. Looks nice a good bike for my collection. Going to ride at work to test it. My paper round takes around 2 hours so it a good test. Will update review later .
As someone who doesn’t drive. Having a bike like this is fantastic as it has a luggage rack with a clasp. And supports my rucksack when I go shopping. Very easy ride and looks grea
My husband is very satisfied with this bike after riding this bike for a couple of months now.
It came partially assembled so it was easy and quick to finish assembling to get the first ride, as we were both excited to try this bike. After minor adjustments, following the detailed instruction manual, the brakes and gear shifters work very well.
Rides with ease. Much better than a mountain bike for getting around town using the streets or sidewalks.
For the price, the bike is well built, with good steering, braking, and shifting.
The handlebars are not wide, and the seat is on the smaller side, but still works fine.
Easy to climb on to, smooth ride nice turning, smooth braking. The carrier on the bag is a great addition for storing stuff, while on the ride.
Great quality, highly recommended!
Oh my dayz. When this arrived I thought my sons would use it. However my partner has shocked us all when he said he wanted to ride it. He’s in his sixties and hasn’t rode a bike since he was a young lad lol Putting this together wasn’t a problem quite easy he said. Once together it looks lovely.
My partner thinks it’s got a retro kinda look which he loves.
He has been on this a few times- each time getting better lol He says it’s really comfortable to ride and I agree after trying it out too.
We are looking forward to the warmer weather when we can finally go out for some decent cycle rides.
I am not cycling very often and when I do, I don’t go for very long distances (always under 10 miles at a time). This bike is perfect for my needs.
It is designed in a stylish way and I really love the bright green colour. It arrived well packed and took about 10-20 minutes to assemble (everything needed for this process was provided). Tires needed to be pumped with air upon arrival but this was not an issue to me.
It is easy to cycle with this bike. There is a good range of gears to choose from and they change easily. The bike has quite thick tires so driving in the park or light woods would not be a problem. The pedals are big enough to feel comfortable and not get painful feet. The handles are comfortable to hold for a longer time. The brakes are working well (which makes this bike safe to use). The seat is also relatively comfortable.
One thing to note would be that I found this bike quite heavy so going uphill was a challenge. This might be important for those who might use this bike more regularly for commuting.
Overall, this is a great bike with a lovely design. Easy to assemble and comfortable to cycle.
Wow such a beautiful big bike! Honestly so well made and the attention to detail is… A+.
Easy to put together, is really big and heavy… was a two man job. The bike rides perfectly, been using for about 4 weeks. No problems at all. So comfortable, seat is well padded and supportive. Handle bars again are padded and comfortable. Love the colour, bright and eye catching.
Well worth the money, excellent quality!
The bike arrives in a large box, disassembled and it is very easy to put it back together. My partner checked some videos online just to be sure, but the whole process was smooth. My job is not far from home, but not close to walking.. so using a taxi has been dreadful for the last few months. This bike is beautiful, looks just like the pictures – a bit bigger than I expected and I have a problem with its storage. I like the fact that has 7 speed rear derailleur, smooth transition, but it does feel different when changing and riding through the forest… i do not feel safe enough to take it to the woods in the near future. I like the overall vintage feel and the rack is perfect for a bag. Good value for money overall, and a good option to save some money and not use taxi, a good healthy alternative.
