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.

80 percent. You'll have to assemble the handle bars, front tire, peddles, and seat. The back wheel and chain come assembled. All in all, pretty easy to put together. Instructions are included with pictures.

The bike comes in a box about 85% assembled. You are responsible in assembling the handle bar , pedals and tires. The box is about 6x2x1. Unfortunately i would not recommend this bike , I have used it less than 3 months and my gears have broken. I use it only for my commute which is about a quarter of a mile, thrice a week to work.

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.

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.

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.

Sorry, it's been too long since I assembled it to remember. I do, however, remember assembling the bike twice and thinking, how would someone who is not extrememly careful ever assemble this bike without breaking something? I would take S. White advice and check out the YouTube.

While not fully assembled, it is nearly so. I think I had to put on the wheels, pedals, seat-seatpost assembly, and stem-handlebar assembly. Certainly didn't require a bike mechanic.

Partial assembly required. I put it together but then took it to a bike shop for an inspection and full tune up. I like it!

This bike is semi-assembled. It should take you less then 1 hour. Or you can take it to a bike shop and have them do it for you

No it wasn't assembled. You have to put the wheels and seat on, but it was no big deal. My husband had it all put together in minutes. It's a great bike! My 4 year old has loved it!

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.

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.

No it doesn't. Not completely. The stuff you do have to put together is not that bad. You need to put on the tires, handle bars, brake calipers on the frame, align brakes correctly, seat, and pedals. I think that was it. It is an amazing bike though for the money. I am a big guy and it has performed well for me.

No it is not completely assembled,however,I followed the instructions and was able to put it together. The peddles, front wheel, handlebars and seat must be put on. The tires have to be inflated. If you can follow instructions, you should not have a problem.
