I don't understand the negative responses on this bike. For the money, you can't beat it. The only negative I found is that I wish the seat could be adjusted higher. I'm using it for knee replacements and the extra height would be beneficial. Also, easy to assemble. My 13 year old grandson had it together in about an hour.

If you are taller that about 5'-8, do not buy this exercise bike. The seat height and arm levers are too low for anyone taller. The crank arms are also shorter than most bikes (about 150mm vs most bikes at 170-175mm). I used for knee replacement rehab which worked fine. The bike seems well built, especially for $110. All moving parts have wear bushings and the heavy flywheel gives it a good "feel" when you pedal.

This is very sturdy! I've had mine for about 3 yrs now and have gotten up to 25 mph holding there a few minutes several times during my ride. I'm on it at least 3x wk for 15-30 minutes while maintaining 12-14 mph. I've not even had to tighten anything other than the seat due to my 3 yr old grand-daughter having a thing for turning knobs and pushing buttons, LOL! When I got this I weighed 240 and am now 180. I love it!

Yes it is. I really am satisfied with mine. I weigh 210 lbs and have no problems with it.

Have to be careful of what you read on the internet. There are a lot of folks on this forum that don't own a bike nor have they even ridden one since kiddie tricycle days, but are completely engrossed into the space occupied by a supposed 16 pound bike they will not ever own....and that would cost at least $5,000. For a bike in this real world price range (under $500), 25 pounds would be quite light-weight and completely acceptable. The Northwoods I bought for my wife (this model), it is in the 25 pound range (21-24 pounds +/-) seems quite light and sporty. It is not at all clunky or heavy like some bikes you might buy at a department or hardware store. This bike has an aluminum frame and almost all allow gears and components which the dept store bike won't. You could buy this Northwoods with confidence and find it is quite a good ride. On the other side; in only a few rare cases is the shipping weight quoted in an ad anywhere close to correct, nor is the ratio of shipping weight to product weight consistent enough to make it useful.

I had no issues assembling this bike, there were, however, parts missing(nuts and bolts) i replaced those got the bike together and went for a short ride to test it all out before i let my GF(who the bike is for) ride it. Well i immediately regretted buying the bike. The frame is bent and pulls to the right. i should have spent a little more and got a better bike. She seems to like it overall but she also regrets the purchase and i probably wont ever buy a bike off amazon again because of it Local Bike shops for me from now on. the 6 speed gears are a plus. having the baskets is nice but the whole bike seems poorly engineered.

I think it should be fine, it has a adjustable seat height. I like the bike, You can adjust the tension to regulate how hard it is to pedal. It's a nice bike for the price. Don't expect a expensive one, but it works fine, if you use it.

This bike is very well built and strong. I'm 5'-10", 190 lbs. I have been very satisfied with this bike and I have no complaints.

It is a very nice trail bike but not for professional purpose. Don't push so hard. It goes ok for jumps and rocks as well but again, not in professional use. I am very satisfied that effect.

I'm also 6.1 and have had this bike for a little over 2 years now. With some minor adjustments the bike is perfect and strong considering the cost.

I got this bike for my son's 4th birthday and it has been great! It is really durable and sturdy. He loves it and goes everywhere in it. Hope this helps.

I traded this bike in for a better model. After my 4 star review, the pedal cracked and I had to replace it ( 1 weight 180 lbs). I sold the bike to a friend and bought the higher end model used at the gym. I am very happy I did. These bikes weight 100 lbs (give or take) but I suggest getting the higher end model. I had no problem with shipping because it was included in the price. Assembly was not a problem. Updgrade to the higher in bike like I did.

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.

the bike has good weight, about 18 pounds or so. I use it only for racing because the weight is excellent for running competitions.

No problem at all. Very stable. I'm very pleased with the Bikehand. Good value and stores nicely.

I found the packaging good. In fact, I thought it was packaged very well. I did not have any problems with the pedals. I have been riding the bike for about 3 months and really enjoy it. I think it is a great bike.
