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.

Yes, it does require assembly which was quite difficult but once we got it together it is awesome! My wife loves it! It took about 2 hours to put together but very solid bike and looks great when done! If you have a little bit of mechanical skills with screwdriver and wrench should be no big deal and well with it.

It comes in a big box. You do have to assemble, but it is fairly easy. I did it, and have no experience with building or bikes. Brakes are the hardest thing, but still manageable.

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.

The bike is mainly assembled , you must put wheels, handle bars , and seat on. Very simple

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.

Yes, It is. You should have knowledge, in assembling the Bike. Otherwise it may be assembled poorly. I had my purchase returned, because of that fact. Then I found the bike at a Walmart Retail store pre-assembled, as well as a cheaper price no less!

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.

This does not come assembled. It comes mostly assembled. The back wheel and chain are connected to the frame correctly which also has the handlebars and brakes already assembled, however, you have to put on the front tire, pedals and seat. It took me about 10-20 minutes if I remember correctly.

Mostly assembled, just had to screw on the pedals, affix handlebars and front tire. Pretty simple and only required an Allen key set, if I remember right.

The model does come 90% assembled in the box. You will have to assemble the front wheel, handle bars, seat, pedals and adjust the brake and gears if needed.

It requires a little assembly, but it isn't too bad. However, and see my review, I don't recommend this bike at all.

Yes it needs to be assembled . When you receive this bike, it is 80% assembled in the box. The rest of it has to be put together and assembled by a licensed mechanic.

Yes it is totally assembled. All you have to do is extend the seat, lock the frame, lock the handlebars to the stem and raise them, then extend the handlebars...hop on the bike and ride. Bike is fairly well adjusted right out of the box,but probably good idea to have everything adjusted by a Dahon bike shop.
