I know nothing about bikes and bought this last night to ride to work ( i live really close to my job ) now im kind of concerned
For some reason this reminds me of Regular Car Review. You should start a new channel called Regular Bike Review.
I got this TODAY
i cant ride 26 in anymore i used to but it just was too scrunched for me. i switched to 27.5 i like it alot too because the cranks are bigger so u can pick up speed a little easier. This is a great deal though for 80 bucks i just hope you are happy with it. if u ever change your mind u can get a good 27.5 inch for real cheap.
Have the same exact bike, replace the stock junk to shimano equipment
ya greezy bastard. thanks for the videos, and thank you for explaining the 2 types of shifters in plain english for everyone. it was an older vid but its still relevant super helpfull now. one less car dude
Great review! So how is this bike holding up so far?
first of all, this was a fun review. I’ve been looking into walmart bikes recently because I am on a budget and trying to keep it under 120. I haven’t pulled the trigger yet because, well, its from walmart and I want to make sure I don’t die. Im not an extreme biker but I was looking to take it on some smooth trails and a minor dirt ones for about 16-30 miles on the weekends. Any suggestions on the best walmart bikes?
I’ve had this for almost a year, front breaks are gone, suspension does nothing, the bottom gears are virtually the same, the top gear you have to hold down to work, & broke on my first trail. Getting a nice Diamondback Hardtail ASAP.
Bought this bike, just needed one for college. Nothing crazy, just kept it simple
It’s fantastic for 80, buy it, build it, buy it built, replace parts. Or Spend more money elsewhere…simple
100th like!
I just bought that bike today
If you ever took this bike on a trail where there was even the hint of granite, let alone the peak of the trail, good luck! I wouldn’t put anything bigger than a 350w motor in this thing. I think even a weak 500w motor would be pushing it.
I have own a few these bikes they been really good to me I ride everywhere I had never had major problems I don’t why people always talk bad about cheep bikes
Electrify it with a taser in the seat…keeps thieves at bay!….Shwing!
Is this good enough to go around the neighborhood? My old walmart bike’s wheel popped after 2 months. Also what PSI should i use for the wheels
Great vid did my bike reserch on this video hope to see more mountain biking vids
this bike is legit i won the tour de france with this
Whats worse guys, this bike or this video? Yepp, the video 🙁
umm..great review why didn’t you ride it for the review.
Thanks for the review
I’m in the market for an inexpensive budget bike to use for commuting to campus, which is about ~3/4 of a mile down the road. I know that these box store bikes get a bad rep among the biking community for falling apart easily, but I have zero intention of doing tricks or going off-road, just asphalt.
How well has this bike held up for you in these past 6 months? For $80, this bike seems like it would be a strong contender for what I should purchase, but I just want to know if it is reliable at all. If not, do you know of any other decent bikes at a similar price range?
That’s sweet
Try the Titan Alpha Bike instead or the DiamondBack Recoil 29 Walmart Online only
i really liked the video, and so a actually went and bought one (1)
Is it a good bike for touring?? Im scared of tires poppin while running at 50 mph.
Nino schurter watches this video every night,he is so jealous that he is stuck with his Scott Spark.
Idk if bike hypebeast is a thing cuz i think im one.
I found one of these. Someone taco’d the rear wheel, and threw it away. Tightened cranks, replaced the rear wheel, and greased the bearing and all is good. This is worth $79. Weak point is mostly the fork. Almost to the point of being dangerous. I replaced the levers too, they were way flexy. Brakes are great otherwise. Really a good buy for anyone on a budget. Steel frame, but strong and well built. Well worth the money as long as you don’t plan on doing drops on that fork.
If you’re considering one of these, GET THE WARRANTY!! I went through 3 bottom brackets in less than a year. The wheels bend easy so be prepped to true them back. Killed the pedals in about a month, but I hate plastic pedals. The exposed cables can be a problem so just keep them really clean and lube the openings by the housings or the twist shifters get really stiff. It’s a great intro/throwaway bike. I’d say it’s best asset is the frame. The geometry is comfortable and I regularly rode 15 miles at a time after replacing the saddle. I learned a lot about bike maintenance because of all the problems. All of the issues due to the low quality of this bike helped me to justify spending $300+ for better quality.
I have the same bike!
Quality is great, funny to watch. Simply Well Done! 🙂
Did you get a reflector rigged up ?
I have this bike but black. Almost 2 years It’s a reliable bike.
You call that Weaker?
I have the same brakes
I applied when a kitten came infront of me and WoOSH!!
I M flYIng up in the Air
BTW the Kitten got no harm 😀
