I have had this bike for a year.

I am a little disappointed with the folding latching mechanism; I think it could have been designed a bit better. I put velcro over it to keep it in place. One time while I was riding the bike actually started folding up on me; weird experience, but fortunately no harm done to me or the bike!

After purchase I had a bike shop tune up. (I got a tuneup Groupon). This made a world of difference in the bike's performance, and I highly recommend it!

I'm 5'11, 185#, and I find the bike quite comfortable. I generally ride 12 miles or less per trip. It's not a lean mean road machine, but for short trips I actually prefer it over a hybrid bike I own. I like the wide tires for city/suburban biking, although wider tires are not speed demons.

This is a standard size bike, and is not, in my opinion, light weight. It is not easy to lug into our transit system (BART), so I don't use it for the purpose I originally... Read more

Handle bars are too low!

Now if you are use to riding in a hunched over position (aerodynamically) than this could be a great bike for you. I do not like riding a bike this way.

I felt than the bike is advertised as an urban street bike (no off-road) for the casual rider and being the large model I hoped it would accommodate my 6' body. That being said, I find the handle bars can not be raised to an adequate height to which I may ride with a straight spine.

I tried adjusting the seat, no good. I tried reversing the stem neck, no good. I tried a stem extender, the treads did no match (not industry standard).

I took the bike to an authorized dealer and he could not offer a way to extend the stem w/o compromising the structural integrity. He did suggest replacing the factory handle bars w/ 5" riser bars.

For $25 thru amazon.com I purchased Pyramid Mountain Bike Riser Handlebars (5" Rise, Alloy, Silver) which I was able install on my... Read more

I ordered this bike for my Partner, it shipped quickly, was easy to assemble, and has been easy to store indoors where we live in a condo.

He is very happy with it, and I am happy it fits in a closet!
