I bought this bike about 2 months ago and I've ridden it many times already. Cruising around the neighborhood with my kids, taking it to the skate parks, and riding it at the dirt jumps. And I can say that it's a perfect bike to start with.
I'm 5'11" and 180lbs. This bike is very comfortable for me. It is surprisingly light and nimble and maneuvers easily. I like that this bike feels really sturdy while I'm jumping and practicing tricks at the skatepark. For the price, you simply cannot get a nicer entry level bike. While I am giving this bike a 5 star rating, I do believe there are some flaws worth mentioning.
- the wheels/rims arrived out of true and need to be adjusted with a spoke wrench.
- the first time I installed the front tire, one of the tire-stays bent. It's a cheap fix but still a annoying that it bent the first time.
- the rear wheel is constantly slipping. No matter how tight I get the nuts, it seems as though the rear tire slips forward eventually. I highly recommend a set of chain/tire tensioner with bike. However, the rear axle is just long enough for a tensioner. If you intend on putting pegs on the rear tire , will essentially have to choose between pegs or a tensioner.
Other than these few gripes, I would still recommend the bike as a modest entry level bike that will leave you entirely satisfied with your purchase.
