Retrospec Dart 20 & 24 Inch Hybrid Kids Bike - 7 Speed for Ages 6-11 Boys and Girls Youth Bicycle with 29" All Season Tires and Shock-Absorbing Suspension

great sturdy bike. I have a 7 year old girl, and the seat is right now all the way down, and she is very comfortable.Changing gears is very smooth, beautiful design, the color is nice.

Easy to put together, looks great, rides and brakes well. We have not had any issues and have had for about a year.

Really nice looking bike, the exact schoolbus yellow color my son wanted, would be a 5 star if the bike hadn't arrived with paint damage on the front fork.

I don't normally post negative reviews because I'm a 'benefit of the doubt' type of person, but this experience has been rough - especially for the money, time, and research that went into the purchase.I got this for my son for Christmas. I assembled it by the book. Each word and picture carefully reviewed. The first issue that we had was the handlebars (and stem) were not connecting to the front wheel. There appeared to be some kind of disconnect between the two parts. The handlebars can be attached to the stem via the front stem clamp, but the stem just spins on the pole, and the handlebars turn loosely in either direction. The stem can also be easily removed by lifting it off of the pole. There is no communication with the front wheel. I reached out for assistance but never heard anything back.I tightened everything the best that I could after referencing the manual again. We could tell something was off but since the handlebars were communicating with the front wheel again, he decided to carefully continue riding it to school.A couple days later I get a call to pick him up because the handlebars had completely disconnected from the bike and along with it some additional parts scattered to the ground. At this point, we feel it is beyond repair. This is my sons FIRST bike. He just learned to ride, he's careful, he doesn't do tricks or BMX. So, I'm at a loss. We loved the bike and thought it looked really cool, but it only lasted for a hand full of rides.

Kid loves it. He has beat it up and it hasn't broke yet. Good bike for the price!

My daughter just turned 7 and I wanted something with a hand brake and gears.Assembly: The bike is fairly easy to assemble with the instructions. Will need some extra bike knowledge to adjust the handles and brakes to kids liking. Most of that can be figured out or looked up on-line.Quality: Solid bike, parts looks solid. Shimano gears. Peak brakes. Steel frame so it is heavy but a lighter bike would be much more expensive. Not really worth it for a transitional bike that gets occasional road use.

I was looking for an inexpensive bike with a neck that went through to the forks. I bought 2 of these in different sizes for my kids. Fast shipping? Easy to put together, just make sure everything is tightened down appropriately including parts already put together. I found some loose nuts here and there.

Looks nice. I had an easy time with assembly until I noticed the chain was off. No biggie I thought. But it was very tangled and threaded incorrect through the gear shifter. Cost me a lot of time and extra $ to work it out, and put a wrinkle in an occasion. It was a very poor pre assembly so last time with this brand. Hey! Maybe get a QC guy over there!!!
