Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)First off, after a few days the stickers on the frame all started peeling off. I don't care about the stickers or decals anyway, so I pulled them all off. But still, being in the sun a few days shouldn't cause all the decals to start peeling off.
Secondly, I am having issues changing gears. If I want to go up or down one gear, sometimes I have to click the up or down lever two times, as once won't change it. This is frustrating after I spent $400 for the bike and another $100 to ship it! Even a cheap bike from Crap-Mart will change gears when I want it to! It doesn't happen every time, just when the bike is in a certain gear setting.
Another thing is, the gears just seem to be off. You know how the bike gears has 3 up front and 7 on the rear tire? I find I am mainly using gear # 3, the largest (and normally the hardest and slowest) gear for most of my level-road riding around. Most people would use this when going downhill or coasting with the wind on their back. The smallest gear (which people use when going up a hill) I rarely use at all, as all it does is spin! It seems to me they are all off. I would prefer to use the "middle" gear, #2 for most of my level-road riding, but I find I rarely use it, just when the wind is blowing against me.
In summary, while not a terrible bike, it sure isn't worth $400. I was riding a cheap $97 bike right before this, and I hate to say it, it was just as good. If I was able to, I'd get a refund but I'm sure that would be a pain.
