Does the bike come 90% assembled as most competitors? If not, what all must be done? Is it essentially from scratch?

Ours came mostly put together and it didn't take long to finish the assembly.

It comes "mostly" assembled. Meaning, it's all together except I think I just had to attach the seat and align the handlebars. Very easy, very quick.

It's almost a full assembly job. The instructions are clear though, so that was helpful. The tension on the bike isn't that great. I was hoping for more tension with a wider range, but it's pretty much two settings (claims to have eight). And the pedals are already making some funny noises inside the unit, which wasn't part of the assembly so I'm not sure how to fix that issue. I think it might be worth it for you to spend a little more money and even get one that comes assembled (if there is such a thing nowadays!). Good luck!

Most of the parts are assembled. You need to put a seat, pedals, and a handle together. An instruction booklet is included and you can also find youtube instructional video online. Good luck!

Nothing. The first bike I purchased had fully assembled, except for one pedal that would not screw in at all. It was a major pain to dissemble the bike completely and "try" to get it back into the carton so UPS could pick it up. The second bike assembled with no issues. About 9 months later I started having the same issue with the pedals coming off. I finally had enough and ended up giving the bike to a local charity since I rarely used it anymore. I suppose you could try super gluing the threads on the pedals or on the crank arm when re-attaching. Of course if you ever want to change out the pedals it may not be possible. Now that I think about it, I even had the same problems when I used a set of clipless pedals with the bike. So this leads me to believe there is an issue with the the treads on the crank arm.

No. No, and no. It comes very unassembled. Very easy to assebmle for someone maderately capable. Fine tuning is a pain. If your not an avid bike tinkerer spend $30 at your local dealer and have the pro's dial it in. Note: my GF has small hands and we had to swap out the brake levers. This cost an extra $30 - $40. She loves the bike now.

No it is partially assembled. You have to put on the handle bars and pedals, etc. not too difficult at all

There was some assembly...the handlebars, seat, front tire. I did have to adjust the derailleurs. It is a cute bike and my daughter loves it.

The bike does not come assembled. It isn't too hard to put together in my opinion though.

Bike comes as a pre-assembled package, with some easy-to-do assembly steps to make it fully road-ready. Can very easily be done at home. No need to go to a store.

No. The bike does not come fully assembled. However it takes maybe 45 minutes to put it together with VERY little effort on your part. Great bike for the price.

I purchased this bicycle a couple of months ago. No, it is not fully assembled, but partially assembled. Off the top of my head, you have to attach the handle bars, put on the tires, add the seat. My husband helped me. It took about an hour. Right now my gears need some attention. I don't have all of the speeds, but there are directions how to do it. It isn't stopping me from riding the bike, however. I really love it. One of the best decisions I made to buy it. It is also beautiful.

My bike came mostly assembled. I think all I had to do was put the handle bars and pedals on. And maybe a wheel. Don't actually remember. Everything was already adjusted though. And it anything is not to your liking, the manual explains how to adjust everything. Seat height and handle bar height are easy and that's all I changed. Gearing setting are probably the most confusing but mine was set perfect right out of the box. With all that being said, if I could do over again I would probably get a different bike. I got the Schwinn midmoor. I don't really dislike anything about it but If given the opportunity, I would try another brand or style of bike. Maybe something more "sporty". If that makes any sense. My wife loves hers and we go on long rides often. If you get if I'm sure you will like it. It is very comfortable. Hope I haven't confused your decision even more. Lol. Good luck.

Yes, minor assembly that anyone can do. The only hangup was figuring out that the washers on the front fork holding the wheel on must go on the outside of the fork arm. Otherwise the wheel does not seat into the fork. It's a great bike. Enjoy!

The bike arrives with the primary components assembled. The rear wheel, hub, crank, chain and front fork arrive assembled. You will need to attach the saddle, seat post and front wheel and pedals, and you will have to install the fully-assembled handlebar arrangement into the front fork/ wheel assembly.Tires are only partially inflated and require full inflation. None of that is difficult, and can be done with a screwdriver and adjustable wrench. I did it in about an hour. The hardest part for me was getting the front brake right. You will need to know something about bicycle construction, as there are no assembly instructions included with the package. After I put everything together, I took the assembled bike to a bike shop to make sure that it was all correct. For a few dollars, it was worth the trouble. I like the finished product very much. It's very easy to ride, the bike is of excellent quality and everything works.

The bike was 95% assembled. Very little assembly required. I was very satisfied with the purchase!
