For those who have purchased this bike, are the tassels removable? DS likes the bike but not the tassels.

I'm pretty sure you can pull out the attachment, but you can also just untie them leaving only a small black loop. This bike is awesome, highly recommend

The tassels are not attached to the bike grips. You can put them on or leave them off.
1999302
Yes, the tassels come out very easily and are completely optional on the bike.

I believe so. They appear to be cinched in with a zip tie. You should be able to cut zip tie and pull them out. We Love the bike! Very well made, sturdy, and fun!

The tassels are separate so you have the option to put them on or not. My grandson loves this bike (without the tassels :-) )

If u check my review I updated it stating they did change the picture after I complained. Other than the circles design on the wheel it is what I got. Actual design I got looks better IMO. It is good for the price, my complaint was due to me getting this bike when they had a different picture representing it.

Unfortunately, no, but the bike is doing well considering it is used by my son st college. It's taking a beating and still holding up well!

Mine is similar to the 2nd image with the bike. The design has obviously changed over the years since I bought mine because the one in the first picture has the black device which has to be pulled to release holder from the rack. Mine did not. Any design with the releasable pull is better because it is more apt to not be knocked off of the rail when you are either picking up or rehanging your bike on the rail.

Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here. I just bought the large, and I am 5'10, but I have a 30" inseam and it fits ok and I have even had to adjust the seat up quite a bit more than I was expecting. I added a diamondback pillowtop saddle, since I am new to biking also and the saddle that it comes with was killing me. If you are mechanically adept, you can assemble the bike easily but it is good to have a REAL bike shop look it over, the box store assembled mine and it ended up scratched, with under inflated tires, the brakes squeaked, handle bars were not aligned properly, and the deraillers needed adjustment Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here.

No and when I ordered that bike they sent a pink bike. Emailed company and they said they'd send a return label and never did. Ended up donating it.

The bike comes partially assembled. The front wheel and fender, pedals, seat, and handlebar must be attached once it is unpacked. Once the bike was assembled, I took it to a bike shop to have the derailleur and brakes adjusted. Telephone support was very good, but the bike shop had experience.

They are removable. Overall I think the piece is a great one, though those bars are a bit flimsy and often fall out.

I have this same bell on two different bikes. ( cruiser and hybrid - both Scwhinn) We did not remove handle bar grips. Mine are placed right next to the grips so that it is easy to reach while riding. I am able to hold my handlebar grips and use my thumb for the bell when needed. :)

I just bought mine before Christmas. So, I have just a few days to ride it. But, I do like what I have seen so far. This being my second year to compete in triathlon, I think this is going to be a good bike for me for this year. Compared to my first triathlon bike, it's a lot lighter in weight and handles well! I hope this helps your decision.

Wish I could help with your question. For me, it's a great bike, but the tires that came with it were too narrow for the best ride, even on roads. Changed tires and it's a great ride.

It has been a while since I put the one together for my granddaughter, but if you would email the seller through Amazon, in my experience they will contact you quickly to resolve the problem. I thought I was missing a part, emailed them, & they called right away (a Saturday afternoon) and resolved the problem (it wasn't missing, I just had not looked close enough). Superb quality bike!

As someone who owns this bike I would advise against standing on the pedals at any point they are not incredibly strong and I've had to replace the entire right side pedal unit because it was poorly machined. It took a me about an hour to take the bike apart and reassemble it.The arm bars swing and if you were standing upright on it, they would repeatedly smack you in the abdomen. Seems uncomfortable.

This is probably excessive overkill for your Ninja. Having said that, the frame saddles are adjustable and removable, so if you don 't mind throwing your money away, have at it. I would rather go down to the local sport bike shop and show the owner a little love by letting him sell me something more appropriate and less expensive for the tasks you are contemplating. Such support may help ensure that he is still there when you really need him.

I have had the bike for about five years and put thousands of miles on it. I have had no problem with the display going off when peddling. The problems I had were getting the heart monitor hooked up correctly. The instructions were wrong and the fan is useless. I resolved this problem by getting a portable fan. This was an amazingly good deal. I have not seen it listed for sale for many years. This does not mean I am unsympathetic to Tanya's complaint, but I do not know how to fix it. Jeff

Mine came with white. It's a remake of the old style though. Not actually a vintage bike. Though the first bike I received was purple with flowers and black tires! Amazon did good though and got it picked up and overnighted the right one since it was a present. I would ask the seller bc it seems to be inter-changeable for them.

BTW it's a great looking bike and comes from this seller darn near put together!! Just install the front tire and handle bars and your ready to ride! I did have to adjust the de-railer but that was a 30 second fix!!
