For her FIRST "new bicycle" to grow into was a great surprise. Target had the best price in town with free on time shipping. Put a couple add-ons, made a pretty bike. Thanks see less

I bought this online, very unhappy I had to pay for shipping, but I took it to target and they put it together in less than an hour. When I walked it outside a screw fell out, from somewhere. It rides great, there is some squeaking under the seat, when I ride it. It is a very nice bike, not sure where I would put the baby seat though see less

It was better than what I ... see more

It was better than what I expected for [$]. But I spent every night for almost a week trying t decipher the assembling sheet, the pictures were blurry, out of focus so there isn't any detail on them. And the worst part is that they were generic pictures, like one for many different models! So you are not able to actually see which part goes where, and they were some tiny pieces that were loose on the gigantic box that almost went to the trash. But after all the trouble assembling it, everything was worth it! I just live riding my girly purple bike around in the city under this hot summer's sun! see less

I love this bike it rides great and is nice to look at. I have had no problem with the bike itself, my only complaint was that it was difficult to put together. I recommend If you buy this bike and are unfamiliar with putting a bike together that you go to your local bike shop and get help. The directions are useless. There were also a few minor issues but they were easy to work out. The bike is great and I am enjoying my new wheels. see less

I bought this bike today ... see more

I bought this bike today and while it had a few bugs they were very easy to iron out. Yes, the bike made noises, but a simple manipulation fixed the issue quickly and almost effortlessly. I bought the bike already assembled, so set up was easy. The only drawback I found was the seat, but that also is an easy fix. I am a large woman so I was initially worried about the tires, but they have also proved to be a non-issue. All in all I am extremely happy with the bike and look forward to riding with my son and getting some exercise. see less

The bike came in a timely ... see more

The bike came in a timely manner in a big box and my husband put the bike together. however it was missing a key screw to hold the frame to the front steering mechanism. He had to improvise. The back tire came inflated and just had to be topped off . the front tire came flat and would not hold air for more than 20 min. both fenders rubbed on the tires when riding and could not be adjusted easily off the tires. [...]. Otherwise, it looked great. see less

What a great bike! I can't believe how little it costs and how nice it is. Quite simply it's a great value. see less

I got this bike and possibly was a floor model or clearance and I knew it had an issue that I thought I could fix myself. I couldn't so I called Huffy and they sent me the part I needed in 1 day. I will never buy another brand. The customer service at the factory here in CA was what you want from a company. I've bought other products from Target and have had missing screws and such on furniture that they never send on the RE products but being able to deal direct with Huffy was a nice surprise. This bike is awesome. It looks great and is made well and I'm enjoying it already. see less

I can't believe I bought ... see more

I can't believe I bought a Huffy at Target, not to sound like a snob, but I always bought "higher end" bikes at bike shops. I just had my SixThreeZero cruiser stolen a couple of weeks ago and didn't want to shell out another [$]. I was determined to buy a Schwinn at Target, but then I ran across this Huffy Nassau Cruiser - Wow! I can't believe how decked out this bike is, as well as so smooth and sturdy. I peeled off all the cheesy trim stickers, and this bike is beautiful - and for only [$]!!! I never thought I would be riding a Huffy, but I have to admit it - I Love My New Bike! Maybe even a little better than the SixThreeZero...... Pretty Sweet. see less

I have had this bike for over a year now, and I love it. It's very easy to ride and lightweight. I am 5'4". This bike has no fenders, so I had one installed on the front, and when it rains, I use a clip-on fender for the back. I also replaced the handlebar, the original one was too long and awkward. see less

I live in an urban, bike-friendly neighborhood, so I spend a lot of time on my Sconset. The best thing about it is that it's COMFY! Smooth ride, easy steering, and a nice, squishy seat. I'm about 5'4" with fairly short legs, and this frame is a very nice fit for my height. Since the top bar is low, it's easy to mount even if I've had a long day or a sore back. And serious bonus points for being skirt- and dress-friendly! I'm impressed with the quality at this price - my next bike will very likely be another Forge. It functions well and it looks good doing it. see less

What's not to love? Got t ... see more

What's not to love? Got this bike at the beginning of the season and couldn't be more pleased. Looked at many beach cruiser bikes but then I came across this one and knew this was the one. It has that vintage charm that I was looking for that the others just didn't seem to have. It was the color that I had always thought of in this style bike and the little red rose detail helped seal the deal! Gears shift easily and rides like a dream. Had some problems sliding forward on seat at first but think that was due to not having been on a bike in almost 20 yrs, much improved with practice. I only wished it came with fenders but don't let that stop you, I didn't!! You will love this bike!! see less

Great bike. Wish you sold it in the stores. Make sure you have metric allen wrenches. It even has that new Bike smell. see less

Found this bike at a local Target store and had to have it! It was ready to rite- just rolled it out of the store and got the first complement on it in the parking lot. [...] Runs smooth and fast - brake is very good.Never had such a comfortable seat on a bike ever. Overall it it almost to cheap to be true! see less

I did some research on this bike (and a number of others...) and decided to place my order. There were a number of very good, positive reviews. The bike arrived very quicklyand my only worry was the assembly part. But, my husband had no trouble putting it together, and it was ready to ride in less than 30 minutes. I love the bike! It's the right size for me and I feel confident, being able to get my feet on the ground easily when I need to.The value for money is excellent. When I go out on my bike, I feel like I'm 12 again - instead of 62! see less

I was very nervous about ... see more

I was very nervous about ordering a bike online that I couldn't return in the store and that I had to assemble myself, but I took a chance and it worked out. The bike arrived quickly and I was able to assemble it myself, even though I have never assembled a bike before. Be aware that you will need Allen wrenches in sizes 5 and 6 and a Phillips head screwdriver. The instructions could have been clearer, mostly because some of the illustrations were of parts that look different from the parts on this bike, but I was still able to follow them. The bike rides like a dream, and the aluminum frame and narrow 700C tires make it so light. I live on the third floor of a walk-up so I was really happy that I could lift this bike with ease. I am 5' 8" and found the size of the frame to be ideal. Women shorter then 5' 6" might want to go with the smaller Athena V. The seat was narrower than I expected, but I found it surprisingly comfortable. I have a 1970s Raleigh 3 speed with a heavy steel frame, and this bike felt like I was gliding on air in comparison to riding my Raleigh. Once I started riding, I didn't want to stop. I did exhaustive research before buying this bike, and I really think it's the best value. Other bikes with identical gears but heavier, inferior steel frames were more expensive than the Forge Athena. If you check out reviews of the other Forge bikes (i.e. the Devon) you will see that they all have high customer ratings. I initially wanted to buy another bike that is almost identical to this from a well-known outdoor catalog company, but it was $130 more. I feel confident that this is the better bike, and for a much better price. see less

I got this bike for my girlfriend and she really likes it. I really like how smooth it rides. I guess it's due to the large rim/tire size. For the price this is a great bike. I had a bit of trouble setting up the derailleurs, so I had to take it in to a bike shop, but after they adjusted them properly the shifting works great. By the way, she's 5'7" so if you're a bit shorter, you might want to go with the 15" frame. see less

Received my new Gridlock ... see more

Received my new Gridlock yesterday. The assembly was fairly straightforward however I never did find any assembly instructions. I found several bulletins for every mechanism on the bike and a large manual written in several languages covering several bikes. Bottom line is I did get it together while watching the evening news and managed to ride around the driveway a few laps to adjust the rear derailer. After that I brought it back in to add my Walds baskets to each side of the rear rack, Schwinn lighting, speedometer and water bottle holder then took it back out for a lap around the neighborhood. This morning I rode my new commuter bike to work in the dark, rear flasher flashing, headlight bouncing and me breathing hard because even though they call it "Comfort" you still need to pedal. At this point I believe I purchased the right bike. I need to wear business/business casual and needed the fenders and chain guard. The ergo hand grips, cushion seat mounted on a spring post and hydraulic front forks are the icing on the cake needed to keep me riding. see less

I actually just got this ... see more

I actually just got this bike, but thus far have had no issues. It's super comfy in comparison to some other Shwinns I looked at in the store, which was my #1 concern. For a $$$, it's a good buy if you are in the market for a affordable commuter, which was precisely what I needed. Also, it's great that it has a rack on the back already attached . see less

I bought this bike about ... see more

I bought this bike about 3 yrs ago. I LOVE it! I shopped around the local bike shops but they all wanted more than I could spend. So I searched ebay and all the on line stores. I chose this bike and glad I did. I could not put it together, nor my husband. We had to take it to a bike shop and pay to have it put together. That is my only complaint. I would suggest you figure that price into your budget. The bike is a dream to ride once you get the seat and handle bars adjusted to you, they will do that at the bike shop also. It's a breeze riding this bike-It's so light! Everyone who "test rides" my bike is impressed with it. Of all the bikes I looked at this one has the lowest bar, which was important to me. It's so easy getting on and off. Just what I wanted!!! see less

So far I have been as pleased with this bike as the other reviewers! The bike feels solid and is fun to ride. Assembly wasn't difficult, just be sure to also have a bike pump on hand when it arrives. see less

I am very happy with this bike. It is very solid and meets all of my needs. I ride the bike almost daily. I was looking for a reasonably priced bike that was built well. I found it.I had to call Forge customer service to ask a couple of questions, they were extremely prompt with their response. My wife is considering purchasing the ladies version in the Forge product line. see less

I bought this bike as a B-day gift for my son. I wanted something that was a step above the stamped out, steel frame, heavy bikes typically found in department stores. As I read through the specs of the Forge Vero LS I decided that if any bike at Target had a chance of meeting my expectations in this price range this would be it. [...] It was about 90% preassembled. As I completed the assembly with my son, I was impressed at the quality of the bikes parts and overall design. This bike is tall, comfortable, quiet, and a great value for the price. It definitely exceeded my expectations. see less

Great bike, easy assembly, shipped as promised. Quality is better than the Schwin we also found at Target. I shopped four bike shops, and this is by far the best value of all I found. see less

The bike unfortunatly had a few scratches when we received. But thats one of the unfortunate things that happen when you order online. The bike is great I have owned shwinn's prior. I was looking for something capable of trailing and path riding. This bike does it all. It comes partially assemble so out of the box it was ready in an hour. It says that it has Water bottle pegs but it does not. All around a great bike though. see less

I spent several months lo ... see more

I spent several months looking at bicycles in stores & online. I am always hesitant about purchasing anything online & spend time comparing products & reading customer reviews. I am pleased with my purchase. It was assembled in about 40 min. The front tire was out of balance & rubbing against the brake. My husband corrected this himself by looking online. There are videos that show you how to adjust spokes to correct this problem. He had this corrected in about 20 min. I am 5'5 with fairly long legs & this bike fits me well. The Sejour does well on most surfaces esp. dirt or packed small gravel like many bike trails are. I ride it alot in town & find it does o.k. on concrete etc., just be sure you have the tires inflated properly, this does make a difference. The tires are fairly wide. Shifting from low to high gears goes much smoother than from high to low. The one thing I don't like is the seat, it is not very comfortable. I made the right choice & recommend this for those who like to do a little more than just take a lesuirely ride. see less

So I've had this bike for ... see more

So I've had this bike for a few weeks now. I was looking for a 15" frame hybrid/comfort bike (since I'm 5'2") to take my toddler on rides. After checking out my local Target, [...], sporting goods stores and bike shops without finding anything I really loved, I stumbled onto the Forge bikes online. They had only positive reviews and seemed to have quality components, so I took a chance on ordering the Devon and I love it. It arrived very quickly (ordered on a Sat., arrived on Tue.), in perfect condition, and mostly assembled, basically you just need to attach the handlebars and front tire. The bike feels like it's made from solid, quality parts. It feels pretty light to me, I can easily carry it. It's very easy & fun to ride. The look and color is pretty, but doesn't scream that it's a "ladies" bike. The seat could be bigger, it's fairly comfy-- but not for long rides. I plan on getting a better one. The seat is very easy to adjust for height. My 6'2" husband can ride this without a complaint! The Ibert front mounted child seat fits this bike perfectly. Unfortunately, I found out I am too short to ride the bike with the Ibert safely. So my husband takes our son for bike rides. We plan on buying the men's Saranac version for him soon, and getting a Copilot Limo child seat for my Devon.I only wish that Target had the Forge bikes available in their stores. [...] It would be nice to save on shipping costs, and not have to assemble yourself. But I am impressed by Forge, will buy from them again, and would recommend them to anyone looking for a quality bike for casual riding. see less

I just got my Forge Devon CM path bike and I love it. It's well-built and has a very smooth ride. It's easy to change gears and rides better than my last bike, which was a Trek....no kidding! see less

I bought this bike for my wife for her birthday and she loves it. It is really light weight but it has been durable. The aspect of the bike that I like the most is the quick fasten seat, front wheel and rear wheel. The brakes were really easy to adjust as well. Everything about the bike as been exactly what I expected for the price I paid. There are similar bikes on the market for twice the price. If I were to make one critizism is that the bike didn't come with a kick stand. I remedied that problem shortly after I bought the bike with the kick stand off my wifes old bike. I also looked at new kick stands and they were only about $10-$15. Good birthday present. see less

I bought this bike a while back ago and is still runs great.... I get great workouts through this machine. Love the style and the design but the only thing is that I'm 5'3 tall and it's just a bit big for me, but it's still good. see less

Bought this bike last yea ... see more

Bought this bike last year for my wife for christmas and a year later we are thrilled with the performance of this bike. In all truthfulness it has seen very little of the trail but hauls my daughter across hilly streets with ease. She is 5'6" and has no trouble riding this bike and the easyfire shifters make life easy. The Negative: reflectors fell off the petals and the petals as a whole are kinda cheap, but they still work and my nephew just rode the bike 50 miles for the eaglescout trials and had no problems. So all in all, too many positives to talk about, only a minor negative, and I'm leaving a review becasue I'm on here looking for myself a forge bike this year. You should do the same. see less

This is a bike you will love to ride. Smooth and Fast. Very good price. Ask the bike specialist in the store to adjust the seat if needed. see less

I got my Forge Saranac last July. The bike is holding up great after putting on about 600 miles on NYC streets as well as mountain trails. Even after having a bike accident on a trail that ended up breaking my rib, the bike just needed a brake adjustment. I'm planning on putting on about 2,000 miles this year on this bike and feel confident that the bike can take it. My wife liked my bike so much, she got the ladies version of the same bike Forge Devon. Highly recommended bike for anyone. see less

I got back into bicycling ... see more

I got back into bicycling about a year ago and ride anywhere from 15-35 miles when I go out. I was looking for a good hybrid bike to ride on my "usual" paved trail. After putting 400+ miles on this bike I couldn't be happier with the purchase. The components are all very high quality and were set almost perfectly right out of the box. The Kenda tires ride smoothly and provide distinctively less resistance than the mountain bike that I was used to riding. The WTB seat and shock-absorbing neck do a great job of keeping me comfortable during my rides (no easy feat since I'm 200+ pounds). The shifts are smooth and the trigger-shifters are convenient and highly accurate (no jumping gears with these). Both the brakes are tires holding up extremely well after 400+ miles, and I expect I'll get a lot more miles from them. If you're someone who simply enjoys biking and is looking for a good quality hybrid bike at a really decent price then I would highly recommend this model. I've enjoyed every mile and gotten some great exercise, and I have no doubt that this bike would do just the same for anyone else. Bottom line - GET THIS BIKE! see less

I have been riding an ine ... see more

I have been riding an inexpensive mountain bike from Sears for the last 15 years or so and, since it is on it's last legs, I decided that it was time to upgrade. I live in a small, hilly town in the blue ridge mountains (Blacksburg) and I ride mainly on roads and paved bicycle trails, although I imagine that I might one day do some off road riding as well (but not mountains, most likely). After much research, and after talking to the people at Forge, I settled on this bicycle as I was looking for a "hybrid" bike that would be good for the type of riding I actually do, and imagine that I might do. I compared this bike, first of all, to the 17.5" Forge of the same model, as well as to the Schwinn Tourist bike (http://www.target.com/s?keywords=schwin n+tourist&searchNodeID=1038576}128799101 1&ref=sr_bx_1_1&x=0&y=0) which I actually purchased first and took home to try out. The Schwinn is a nice bike too, but the tires are 700c and are much narrower than those on the Forge. I'd say the Schwinn is really more of an urban bike and the Forge is more of a true hybrid, although it leans towards mountain bike. I returned the Schwinn as I did not feel it was a true hybrid bike, which is what I was looking for (it is a nice bike though and is very fast and light).As to the size, I am 5'9" and this bike fits me just right, I think the 17.5" frame would have been too small. That said, if I was really riding this off-road, I would not have the recommended 2-3 inches of clearance straddling the bike, more like 1 inch (but that is how I like it).The quality and look of the bike is very good for a "department store" bike - I have had it at the LBS and they had nice things to say about it. Here are a few pictures of my bike [...]. I had to assemble the bike, of course, and I had to adjust the front and rear derailleurs as well as the brakes. None of it very difficult, although the derailleurs were a bit tricky to get set exactly right (a lot of good videos on YouTube for that).The tires are about 1.9" wide and are not knobby - they definitely seem like "cross-over" tires to me.The bike has a good suspension system and the seat is stiff, but comfortable. It does not come with a kickstand (like most mountain bikes), but I have added one.As I mentioned, I called Forge a couple of times in advance to ask questions about the bike - they were responsive and helpful. see less

well built,sturdy & easy assembly. well packaged speedy delivery [...] I am so pleased with this purchase and would definatley recommend this bike to everyone. The gear shifter is incredibly smooth, the bike handles well and the combination of front handbrake/rear coaster brake is exceptional. I also paid almost [$] bucks less than the Nirve website price see less

I purchased the Victory ... see more

I purchased the Victory Touring One last February because of its classic Baby Boomer design. The frame is rugged, the saddle is comfortable and the handle bars can be adjusted so it fits the rider not the other way around. You can go for a leisurely ride with friends or cover a lot of ground, either way it is just plain fun. With the classic white wall tires and chrome fenders, it will turn a lot of heads and if you get stuck out in a rain storm, the fenders keep the mud on the streets not up your back. The paint and finish are something to be proud of. Bob E from the foot hills of Maine see less

I have been riding this bike for about six months. I ride about 75 miles a week on pavement and it perfect for my style of riding. I have owned more expensive bikes before but, I get more compliments on this bike. They think it cost a lot more than I paid for it. My neighbor saw it and ordered it a week later. I am 5'9 and the bike fits me perfect. Forge has a great support group if you have any problems with the bike. I would recommend this bike to anyone who wants a comfortable, quality, bike for the money. see less

Arriving on time in a box ... see more

Arriving on time in a box, this Huffy bicycle requires you to read the instructions, before you assemble it together yourself. If you are not a bike aficionado, you may be discouraged or overwhelmed. Basically, the body of the bicycle already has 1 tire connected to the back wheel. You have to connect the front tire yourself, though. Other parts to fix together include the seat, the handle bars, and the pedals. Most of the necessary screws are provided, even though some of these parts do not require any screws, or nuts at all. Instead of ranting angrily, I will just give you this piece of advice which is after ordering the bicycle, you are probably best of taking it to a bicycle store and having them assemble it for you. This is because the bike store workers tend to properly TIGHTEN the screws, nuts and bolts on the bicycle, correctly, and that is very necessary for your safety while riding it. see less

I received this bike in a ... see more

I received this bike in a box! You would think it would include instructions to put it together, NOPE. You would think it would come with some sort of tools to put together, NOPE. You would think it would come with all the parts needed to put it together, NOPE. All the nuts and bolts were just loose in the box so some were missing, had to buy some nuts to put on the finders with. Well then I think its all together yeah right you need the strength of God to put it together. I finally get it together and take it on the road and what do you know the chain is to big so the second that you stop peddling and then try to peddle again the chain has come off! What a waste of time. I called a local bike company and asked how much it would cost to have a chain link taken out, 15 dollars. And their CS is outsourced so you can get anywhere with them. see less

This aluminum bike is ama ... see more

This aluminum bike is amazingly well priced compared to designer bikes elsewhere. It is so light! We went from hunched over the handlebars of our mountain bikes on nearby beach trails to an upright position. Let me get this straight. This is just a pleasure seeker's bike for fun leisure and not a serious trail or speed bike. Suddenly, we can ride down our local beach trails paved, sit upright and enjoy the sights. It is lightweight aluminum, sturdy with stylish giant tires and "pimped out" rims, You somehow feel younger on this bike and it makes teenagers salivate. Anyway, welded weather resistant aluminum, came assembled when purchased in the store so no set up, solid quality for the money and features and certainly a great value as far as I'm concerned. I compared a dozen bikes at both [...] and Target and this bike at Target was the winner. see less

[...] The bike assembled ... see more

[...] The bike assembled fairly easily. I inflated both tires and I didn't get 10' before the front tire blew out. The tire was not overinflated. When the tube blew, it ruined the bead on the tire. I finally got through to Kent for warranty replacement. I gave them all the info they asked for and e-mailed the sales receipt. That was 3 weeks ago, and I still haven't received a new tire and tube. I bought a new tire and tube from a local bicycle shop and compared the tubes. The tube that came with the bike is very cheaply made. The bike is advertised as a kid's bike, but it is too tall for any kid I know. I am 6 feet tall, and it is almost too high for me. see less

The High Roller came assembled from Target local store so, setup was no problem. After having a flat tire, I took the tube out and patched it. As soon as I put it back in, it went flat again. I have searched the web and also called Kent Internationsal trying to get a tire for the bicycle. Kent said to call back in three weeks and they might have the tubes back in stock. Because of the Vitese wheels, the tube must have an extra long valve stem or it will not work. The bicycle is no good with out good tubes and tires. Porr design choice to use wheels that must have special tubes and not carry an adequate supply to meet customer demand. see less

While I love this bike and previously posted the great experience immediately after buying, the bike is not a good choice if you're planning to use it for exercise. Recently I've begun to ride more for exercise and longer time/distance and the 7 gears just aren't sufficient for that. Still a great value and fun to ride, but I notice I am riding mostly in the top 2-3 gears. see less

The bike arrived in less than one week and assembly only took my wife and I about 90 minutes. Here's the best part; since the invoice said I could return the bike to my local Target if dissatisfied, I called and spoke w/the bike assembly guy. I offered to pay for them to look it over and adjust the brakes. He said bring the bike by, I did and he adjusted the brakes, seat height and tire pressure. Although I was willing to pay, he didn't charge me.The bike came with whitewall tires and a nice looking brown seat. The derailleur (shimano tourney) is the same that was on a [$] Trek. The frame is lightweight aluminum and the pullback handlebars make for a very comfortable ride.I looked for comparable bikes; i.e. aluminum frame, pullback handlebars, 7 speeds or more, shimano parts. Every one I could find was significantly more expensive.Great value! see less

I purchased this bike for ... see more

I purchased this bike for my use after reading the reviews on Target for this bike and others built by Forge. In fact I also purchased my wife the Forge Coco bike. I have to say that these bikes are constructed from top quality components seen on more expensive bikes, and the fit and finish were great. The instructions for the minor amount of bike assembly were not the best, but I did put it together and it has been a safe and smooth ride. (...) You will enjoy this bike, and I expect many years of enjoyable bike riding.PS. The shipping was quick. see less

I couldn't have asked more for a basic bike from Schwinn! All I needed was a bike to do run some quick errands and jog my dog with. The bike was already assembled at the store and I only needed to attach my basket, inflate the tires, and off I went. My only complaint is the first ride, the seat was a bit uncomfortable but quickly adjusted to the firmness. see less

I got this bike last night at Target but I got one that is blue and vintage burgandy looking with a blue and white seat. I aired up the tires in the store with the tire pumps that were on the shelf before I left, and went out and rode for about and hour and a half and had no problems with flat tires as some other reviewers have mentioned. The front fender was rattling a little bit, but I just kind of "nudged" it forcefully with my foot and it quit. The seat on this bike is very comfortable. My husband and I sat on one of the Magna bikes that were in the store, and it was seriously painful to sit on, and this bike is a thousand times more comfortable for barely more. Overall, I am very pleased with this bike, and I am going to purchase the wicker basket to attach to the handle bars this week. see less

Very satisfied with the bike. It is light, very comfortable to ride, and quite fast. The seat is big and comfy. I am not a tall person, so the back reflector had to be taken off to allow for the seat to go as low as possible, and that was OK. Riding it feels like cruising, the shocks of road bumps are well-absorbed. It is also a beautiful bike, silver with tasteful faux brown leather seat and matching handles. The wheels are 28 inch, but that is a bonus, not a problem, even for a shortish person like me. see less

I just brought this bike on 6/30/12 and can't put it down. I'm in love, haven't rode a bike in over 6yrs. this was a good investment. Thanks Target!!!!!!!!!!! see less

I'm a beginner. I have been riding a schwinn cruiser bike but it was impossible to pedal up hill or on rougher ground. I decided I needed a bike with gears and this was well priced. Today was my first time really riding it and I'm thrilled. I rode 17 miles, mostly down hill. The bike did great, it was fast and very sturdy. Overall it was comfortable to ride, seat was a little uncomfortable but what do you expect when riding that far. I'm deffinetly on the heavy side but I felt completely comfortable and safe. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a affordable, comfortable ride. see less

OMG, I am rating this on its cuteness factor as I just took it out of my trunk and have not yet ridden it. It has been a few years since I have ridden and want to check out the air pressure before I ride it. I have considered buying a bike for a couple of years but this really was an impulse purchase today as I was going thru Target. It was love at first sight!!!! Yes this bike is purple but with the beige it is a great color combination. The style is what got me I think, it is just like my first Huffy that I had in blue decades ago. I rushed home to ck pricing online to find Target was the cheapest and also the bike was already assembled, so I rushed back to Target. As I was at the register, the guy in line behind me was commenting on how cool and retro it looked and that it looked like bikes from 50 years ago and that he was envious. I told him "exactly" and that was why I was purchasing it. I have had a couple of bikes over the years but never could get into the hand brakes. If this bike gives me 1/10th of the pleasure that my first Huffy did (sans the skinned knees from learning to ride), I will be more than satisfied. I got my first Huffy for Christimas when I was around 10, last week I turned 63, Happy Birthday to Me!!!! see less

I am giving this bicycle ... see more

I am giving this bicycle 5 stars because aside from one mishap, this bicycle is just fantastic, especially for only [$]. Yes, the bicycle is Raspberry instead of "red" but it is a nice raspberry. Target's mistake in the product listing. Assembly was easy. It is already mostly assembled. it comes with what seems to be an instruction booklet packaged with all of Huffy's bicycles, and then 3-4 sheets with more specified instructions. use these extra instructions, but follow the order specified in the main manual. I had one issue when i was assembling the bicycle, the front tube blew out. the back one is fine though, so i think i put too much air in too quickly. dont put the 50lbs of air in that the tires suggest. the tires are great tires, nice and thick with good tread, but the tubes may not be able to take 50lbs of air pressure, i have mine between 35-40 for a nice comfortable ride. for [$] i think that is reasonable, and the back tube is still fine after a few rides so it may have just been that one tube. the rack in the back actually can adjust out to be longer and is part of the frame. It is a high quality frame and very well made. When my Father saw the bicycle fully assembled he suggested that huffy took an old bicycle they used to make in the 40's/50's and simply copied it. It looks exactly like the old ones he said and comparing it to my mother old bicycle i think he's right. much nicer retro feel than other retro coasters on the market. Very comfortable ride, seat is also comfortable. The coaster brakes are good and only take a little getting used to if you are used to hand breaks. they do not skid you to a sudden stop like a fixed axle on a child's bike, i was worried about that, no need to worry. the bolts are nether metric or english, but you can find a fit in any wrench set. Seat is already attached to post, just needs to me unfolded. I almost left off the cup holder, but its actually quite nice. Place it right next the the handle bars post after the reflector and it shouldn't get in your way. The basket isn't huge, but spacious enough for a few things, this morning i had my wristlet, extra bottle of water for my riding companion, travel pack of tissues, Netflix DVD, and 2 paper bags containing 2 large pastries and a large soft pretzel. I highly Recommend this bicycle, Yes it is RASPBERRY and not RED, but it is very nice color, and goes well with the trim color. you will enjoy this bicycle of you are looking for a nice cruiser bicycle. see less

I did my research and read lots of reviews before purchasing this bike. And I have to say I definitely got my moneys worth. It was a little complicated to put together and I did take it to my local REI store for them to give it a once over and discovered the crank and one of the pedals was cross-threaded. they fixed it though only cost me 19 bucks. And I will say although it looks a deep burgundy in the picture its more of a sparkly purple. But still a very cute bike. I also liked that it came with the basket, cup holder, and rack. As many bikes you have to purchase those separately. see less

Looks like the one I had in the 50's! My husband said there was one bolt missing,so he went to the hardware store and got one.Purchased a basket only 19.99 online through Target and added a bell.......feel like a kid again! I've taken it for a couple rides and it's a very comfortable cruiser bike.Also like the coaster brakes. see less

Bought this bike at Target and they did awesome job of assembly. No dings or sratches. This is a Candy Red paint and looks great. I love the way this bike rides. Similar to my bike in the 50's. I took it to a bike shop to have a front brake added and re pack the hubs with grease just for extra protection. Add a mirror, light and speedometer and you are all set. I like this bike more with each passing day and you will be very happy with such a nice bike at such a great price. see less

Inexpensive simple bike bought for flat terrain biking. Single gear so a little bit more effort needed to go up inclines. Simple foot brake. Ordered blue but got red bike instead. Brilliant metallic red, not a single scratch or blemish. Neighbors have commented how retro nice it looks. Now to assembly, the best news is that this bike is so simple that assembly is a few short steps. First, we took the bike out of the box and checked all items were there. Second, tools. We only needed scissors, a 6mm Allen key, an adjustable wrench, and a Phillips head screwdriver. Third, we lightly installed handlebars and seat, turned the bike upside down to install the front wheel, fenders and foot pedals. Last, we turned bike right side up, checked for alignment of front wheel and handlebars, tightened all the bolts and screws and checked tires were at full pressure. see less

I noticed on most reviews of this bike, people were very unhappy. They said that it was broken when they bought it. Well, i bought this and it was perfect for me. I never saw any problem. I think that in later days they may have fixed earlier problems. Because most of those reviews were in 2008. I got mine around early june 2010, I say they must have had manufacturing problems or store problems with this bike early on and fixed them. I love this bike and i'd recommend it to anyone! see less
