Lots of features, but pricey and needed many adjustments
By Chuy!
My daughter is petite; so, we got her this pricey 5-speed bike with 20-inch wheels for xmas 2008. Item arrived well-packaged but with a few friction marks. I had to install the front wheel, seat, pedals, water bottle cage, and handlebar. I broke them down to these steps.1. Front wheel looked straight but the wheel did not spin freely. I had to regrease and repack the wheel bearings.2. Handlebars installed easily. The cables and shifters are pre-installed; I just had to loosen the adjusting bolt and the handlebar slipped into place.3. Pedals screwed in easily.4. Seat had to be adjusted to correct angle. The bolts are hard to get to, but hopefully, you only need to do this once.5. Water cage is flimsy and I hate where it goes 'cause the water bottle gets dirt and grime really fast.6. Brakes. The V-brakes are strong but I had to adjust the front brakes. I've always found cantilever and V-brakes a clumsy burdensome ordeal. These were no exception. If you don't have the patience to do it right, take the bike to a bike mechanic and get them set right the first time.7. The travel on the brake levers was too much for my daughter's small hands. On her maiden voyage I saw her struggle to grasp the levers to come to a stop. Turning the adjustment screws all the way in was still not enough. I contacted the manufacturer and they sent me longer adjustment screws. That did the trick. So, you may want to keep an eye on your brake levers. Lever to outside of handlebar should be no more than three inches. My mtn bike and hybrid bikes are 3.5. This bike was originally set at about 3.75 - way too large a gap for a 10 year old.Now that the bike is finely tuned, it rides great. My daughter loves it and it rides well and stops on a dime. The bike is heavy, but the extra gearing will compensate for that. Again, I only got this bike because my daughter is petite and quickly out grew a single-speed 20-inch bike, but she is not big enough to jump on a 24-inch bike. This will tie her over for a couple more years.I ride and work on my own bikes; I have a tandem, hybrid, mountain and even a lowrider bike. I have the tools and knowledge to make all the necessary adjustments to make this bike road worthy. I feel this bike should have been put together better at the factory than in the condition I received it - I should not have had to touch the bearings and brakes. Most buyers should consider taking this bike to a qualified bike mechanic.

Nice bike. Daughter loves it.
By S. Landers
We found the other review written by [..] very helpful.Our daughter is also petit for a 10 year old and there are not many 20" bikes with gears to choose from.The next size bike 24" is way too large for her.My husband was able to put it together without any problems.(There wasn't much to do - put on petals, handlebar, slip on gears)As in the other review, the brake lever is much too far away from thehandbar than it should be. It is farther away than my adult bike.We will probably see about getting the longer screws and see if we canclose this gap.The chain rattles in the lowest gears (1 and 2).Daughter loves it.

wouldn't buy again
By momof3
My daughter loves this bike. It was her first "mountain bike". The price was good and we like the look of it and we were happy not to get a brand that was too common. But we've had some issues with the brake cables. And she's had to learn to put the chain on herself, because she'll be riding and the bike will just come to a stop. She has to walk it to a safe place and then fix the chain. She's pretty independent for 9years old, but otherwise - I wouldn't recommend it.
