Steel pedal, good choice. If you have time swap the crank, for a beefier tough heavy duty crank. The original one looks like for normal use. And better brakes.
Hi , I am thinking of buying this bike. Would you guys recommend it based on your experience? I would usually use it to just drive along neighborhood / trails
@@baccanalion Hi! Thanks for the comment. It's a great looking bike for neighborhood riding or flat surfaces but not so good for the rough trails. I have another bike and it holds better on the trails. This bike is very cool looking but it wouldn't last on the rough trails. I hope that helps.
@@daprince27studio Thanks for responding . Yeah the looks + folding bike + price really grabbed my attention. But we are just casual bikers so guess it should be fine. Will give it a thought. Thanks :)
For people with smaller cars, thinking this is the solution....it will not fit in the trunk of a Civic. The handlebars cannot be maneuvered with the wheels in order for it to fit
The bike is of good quality, and it also depends on how you plan to use it. It is not a true mountain bike, but it's a nice bike to ride on regular road surfaces.
It's been around 11 months. Is the bike working properly? Numerous bicycle experts recommended not to purchase this bicycle for long term purposes, is it true?
I'm a casual biker, I typically ride on flat paved surfaces. So the bike is as good as when I bought it last year. It depends on how you plan to use it.
I wouldn't, and wish I would've read more reviews first. This thing fell apart on me while riding on the street going down hill. The quick lock wheel latch came loose twice...unsafe garbage
Thanks for the video. I have the same bike and I saw a lot of these bikes on amazon too for difference prices. Just wondering where can you get replacement parts for the locking clip? As the locking clip wasn't connected on my bike, but I figured it out today. Tomorrow I'm taking it out for a ride.
kind of want to buy a very similar bike (looks same but different random brand), my main issue, however, is the lack of space in the apartment. Do you think its worth it? Does seem quite cheap in general, looks seem fine also, but I heard the locking mechanism can come loose. Do you think it would be good for a daily commute to work on light dirt roads and weekend trips further away?
I personally, have not had any significant problem with my bike, but I have heard others have. It does fold, but otherwise it's the same footprint as any other similar bike if you are looking to keep it in your apartment. It's not the best built quality, but if you are using it like a casual biker without the extreme off-roading, you should be fine. I hope that helps.
Mine practically fell apart the first time out on a mountain, two flats, handle bar got loose, I almost ate dirt. Im upgrading the tires and will give it a second chance, but a bike shop told me these are basically for roads and very light dirt roads, not a mountain bike by any means
@@nelsonmolina1846 ah I sold it after a month, its quite slow in general, but did ride ok, brakes were good. Also heavy... that might be one of the main reasons - weight.
Hi! If you are talking about a child bike seat, I don't see why not because it's just like any other bike. The same components are there. I hope that helps.
@@francofarese6684 I can't say for sure from the top of my head, but I know it's adjustable to accommodate different individuals based on size and height. I hope that helps
Thanks for asking. It still works fine. I'm only a casual biker, and it's fine for that. Wouldn't recommend it for mountain biking or hard-core biking.
Top speed - do you mean top speed on smooth flat ground? I would say between 20 and 25 MPH if you are strong and fit enough to paddle up to that speed and keep up with the high cadence in the hardest gear. Top speed going down a long smooth and steep hill without pedaling can be much higher than that obviously. Gravity will speed you up without the need of even pedaling. But then don't forget that you have to brake and come to a stop! 😂😂
