Bike is fun to ride. I use it for urban roads and gravel trails.
Factory assembled portion needs to be checked before riding. Disc brakes take time to figure out how to adjust so they don't squeal while riding. They have a tendency to rub and squeal after use, needing to be frequently realigned. Gears once they are adjusted shifting is smooth.
The ride of the suspension is smooth however, there is questionable frame manufacture quality with the suspention hinge system. Looking from the back of the bike, holding the bike straight, it looks as if the rear wheel is misaligned with the frame. The top of the wheel seems to be twisted to the left of the seat post by about 1/2 inch. Checked to see if wheel was mounted crooked on the frame but it's set. Suspension hinge bolts seem to be unajustable.

I found it easy to assemble out of the box, but do not see need for all those gears. I use about 3.

I own different bikes since last 20 years. This one is the best I have ever owned. My first trip on this bike was around 8 miles which was super smooth n I loved its ride.Assembly instructions were not too clear especially assembly manual is awfully written n contains black n white pictures which are not clear. Disk breaks were little difficult to adjust, however over all assembly was easy to do.I will definitely recommend it to my friends. However I will suggest new buyers to spend 20 bucks extra to have assembly from some professional assembler.

I had a Schwinn which i got for about 180 and lasted me 3 years+ years. I finally decided to get a new bike for around 300 and came across this bike. It was selling for about 270 plus S&H, but it was still the best price anywhere and i was expecting it to be at least 2 times better than what i had.
When i got the bike I had 2 Broken plastic pieces in the box.(no clue what they were for) and the bike had a dent and scratches in 4 5 different spots. The bike kinda looked like it was used and abused before.

When I assembled it, the front and the back breaks were touching the plate and slowing the bike down. And when I made that annoying sound go away (tightened and loosened a few screws on the breaks) I couldn't break properly, so i took it to a bike shop. The guy tells me that he'll need to open the breaks up and sand them down so they align properly. He wanted 20 for each break. I went around to a few different stores and a guy looked at the biked and said the the breaks and gears were no good for the bike.

O and the gears for the back wheel hit the spokes if I had them to the extreme. No genius but I'm pretty sure that is not supposed to happen either.

The same guy who said that the breaks and gears on the bike were pretty cheap also said the bike should cost around 200, and I should return it if i can. I haven't made up my mind as of right now but certainly I am very disappointed with what I got.
