Okay Bike - Not Easy To Assemble, December 22, 2009
By Peter Becerra (Sacramento)
|

First off, you get what you pay for. My wife and I bought Men's and Women's Victory Touring Cruiser Bikes for occasional riding for exercise - not any serious cycling. For that purpose, these bikes were great. If you want a thorough bike which will handle well off road and will be using it a ton, I would not recommend these bikes.
Secondly, these bikes were not easy for me to put together. Probably took me 3 hours for the first bike, and once I got the hang of it, 2 hours for the second. Glad I had my own tools too, because the tools they provide are cheap and shotty. The instructions that came with both bikes did NOT help. I tried refering to them, but they were not an easy read unless you're an engineer. Also, it seems like the bike company had a single manual for all their bikes, and just ship that manual with each bike, which was frustrating. For example, these are Crusier bikes with wheel fenders, but the instruction manual didn't specifically cover Cruiser bikes, so there were no section on the fenders. I had to look up the image on Amazon to figure out that I had the front wheel turned the wrong way, which meant the fender didn't fit correctly and when I peddled, my feet would sometimes hit the tire when I turned. And configuring the brakes was probably the most difficult part because of the many moving parts and again, the instruction manual was pretty useless. Finally figured it out after messing with each component and reverse engineering their purpose.
I'm just glad I'm done putting them together and my wife and I can enjoy them.

Great bike for an older rider, July 18, 2011
By Barbara S. Mccann
|

I am an older man who has had 8 leg surgeries & has zero cartiledge
in my knees. I cannot even do long walking anymore for the pain
but wanted to find a bike, reasonable, that would be SEVERAL THINGS.
EZ to ride & comfortable. Allow for me to remain seated at stops.
Would be well made. Would not look dorky. Was reasonably priced.
I spent three weeks comparing dozens of models before ordering.
This bike is all that. It has a 17 1/2in canted frame, dropped lower,
so its nestled lower between those 26in fat tires. I am 5'9". I can
stay seated at all times. Seat is wide, well padded & heavy springs.
The aluminum rims are well made and have alot of SS steel spokes. Frame
is heavy aluminum alloy & all other parts are either SS steel, aluminum
or chrome. This bike will not rust.
It is NOT one of those flimsy, light, small rimmed, narrow tires, very
cheaply made, but fancy painted bikes that fall apart quickly. It will last.
This bike is not a trail bike. Cmon now. Anyone smart knows a trail bike
is NOT A COMFORT CRUISER BIKE. And, no bike under $450 should be used for
trail riding anyway. If I were young I donot think I would pay less than $600
really if I was going to put a bike through the tough riding on trails.
This bike is reasonable priced. It's quality level is not a $500+ bike. BUT,
it looks more like a $350 price range bike than the price charged here. Its a
casual riding smooth city street or a city paved bike trail kinda riding bicycle.
The gearing is great and ez. I can cruise sitting down on a residential street
at 25mph for a one hour ride. If I get a run on it I can pull a semi steep hill
up to 275 feet long in climb before I need it to crown over. So I pick in choose
my routes. I have been riding it 3 to 4 times a week for 5 months. Mostly 16 to
20 city blocks a ride. But 6 times I rode the bike for about 90 minutes and was not
overwhelmed.
I bought the 4-color silver/grey/white/black one. Very handsome. Its more manly
looking than the other colors. The double center frame tubing give the bike a "hybrid"
male-female kinda look. I get ppl call out to me frequently "nice bike" when I am
riding. Have rode it 3 times up into the edge of several hundred ppl at summer street
dances with live bands. People like the bike and compliment me about it. And the
canted frame allows me to casually step thru without damaging my ego. (I got crushed
in a car wreck) So I gave the rating 4 stars because its a very nice 4 star quality
bike. MAYBE THOUGH, given this very low price, maybe it deserves 4 stars. I LOVE IT.
It is a little difficult to assemble but not terribly so. And if it has a flaw it is
the aluminum screws that using ALLEN wrench attach the handle bars. Torque them too
much and you will strip them EZ. I took one to Lowes and bought steel replacements
cheaply and that was an ez fix to that worry.
If you want an ez to ride casual retro looker - this one is really a bargain.
Shhhhh, don't tell anyone you paid less than $250 cause they will think you
went to a bike shop and paid $400. LOL (oh - I used my friends acct to order it)
