My expectations were not that high for this product. At about half the cost of a similar bike from a reputable bike shop I assumed the quality would be much lower.The bike arrived in the factory huffy box which is about 10" x 30" x 50". The box is large but not as big as I expected. The bike comes mostly assembled but be careful when removing it from the box as they pack it such that just grabbing parts out may bend a few of the wheel spokes.The instructions could really use more pictures but I ended up not even using them. For the most part it is obvious how to put the bike together. The pedals have little L and R stickers to denote which side the attach to. Be careful as the thread direction is different on each (standard on bicycles). Before installing the front basket I recommend giving the bike a test ride to ensure you like the handlebar location as the basket blocks the handlebar adjustment screw.All together the first bike took me about an hour or so to assemble and the second one about 30 minutes. For tools you really needs some nut drivers or wrenches and a Phillips head screwdriver. You will also need a few allen / hex keys. The bolt sizes are metric so standard tools don't work as well.Once assembled I inflated the tires and went for a ride. I was surprised at the ride of the bike for the price. It is a very good value. It does not feel as solid as a more expensive bike but for the money it is a good purchase. The quality seems high enough that I expect it to last for years. The frame is solid steel. My only complaint is the seat feels a bit flimsy and plasticy but it is still soft and comfortable.The bike is single speed and geared pretty high so I only recommend this bike for riding in flat areas. If there are slight hills you'll find yourself standing up to pedal.On one of the bikes I had a tire rubbing the fender making an annoying noise. To fix this I closely inspected the tire as it rotated and saw where it was rubbing. Pulling on the fender to bend it just slightly I was able to create the few millimeter clearance necessary to eliminate the noise.The other issue was the chain had been set a hair too tight by the factory resulting in a loud clicking noise every time the rear hub cycled. To remedy this I loosened the rear wheel hub bolts moved the wheel forward just a hair to achieve 1/2" chain deflection as directed in the instruction manual. I then re-tightened the bolts and the bike is pretty much silent.For the cost I think this bike is hard to beat.

First thing about this bike that caught my eyes was how it looked and the price. I didn't expect much before ordering it, but am surprised to say the least.It took me about an 1.5 hours to install everything, and this is coming from someone who has never built a bicycle before. Would've went by quicker had the instructions made any sense. The main set was for a variety of bikes, and I found only 2 of the subjects of the entire book to be useful. The separate set, which consists of loose black and white papers, were alright but still lacking in information. Albeit two of the 4 talked about how to install something that were already finished at the factory. More information about how to adjust/install the seats would've sped things up for me, and more about how to install the handle bars would've too.A few other cons to keep mind, such as the paint finish. You can see a lot of bubbling and a few missed spots that could've used another layer. The front fender took some elbow grease to get it aligned with the wheel, and lastly the basket main mount came bent. Even after bending it back, it was too short to fit the basket when used with the bottom fork mounts.With the negatives out of the way, there are a few good things about the bicycle. Rides very smoothly, and handles fine. Its geared pretty high, but I was able to get up small inclines with a little effort. Not getting any random noises, as it did come from the factory with plenty of grease/lubricant in vital areas. After assembly, I took it out for a quick spin and ended up being a 45 minute ride. It didn't feel uncomfortable or anything either. In short, I can see myself commuting with this. Did get compliments on the looks, so its definitely a looker.

You research purchases, big and small, in order to make the best decision with your hard-earned money.This bicycle doesn't disappoint.This is solid construction by Huffy and comes semi-assembled for you. Want more positives to justify purchasing? The color is a vibrant red. The basket seems very sturdy and could (likely) handle more than the recommended 10lbs by the manufacturer.Why shouldn't you purchase this bicycle? Well, for one thing, there seems to be a lot of reviews stating damage on arrival. I bought this bicycle through Amazon regardless thinking they were flukes and "It wouldn't happen to me." I was wrong. The bicycle had a few scratched marks over the front forks. The front fender was slightly bent as was the basket. It wasn't catastrophic. I decided I could fix the scratches with touch-up paint and I bent the basket and the fender back in place upon opening the box.Overall, this is an good-to-great value for your money. The only advice I would recommend is to either purchase elsewhere or be at home when this is delivered so you can reject the box if damaged.
