I don't have to see it in person that is has zero quality. It's the kind of bike you buy to putt around the neighborhood and on a gravel trail. Which, honestly, you should just buy a street bike so it's less work to ride.

It literally weights 40 pounds. Either steel or cast. Heavy AF

I bought these last time there was a deal for $60 something way before COVID. Sold them at a garage sale for the same price a year or so later. Bought it at this price because the wife is feeling the itch again. I expect it will be in the garage sale next year, but it is what it is.

Wrong. Used a cheap $98 bike from Wally and rode it all the way from Miami Beach to Orlando.

I got the Men's version of this bike this February. It's a decent bike for its price (I paid $120 for it). The derailers had to be tuned for the index shift to work properly but overall it has good build and working parts for a commuter or riding on bike path / streets.

I just finished a 20-mile ride with the bike this morning. I know it is heavy and so what? I am not racing with this bike. I use it to work out so when I upgrade it to a lightweight bike it will be a great experience.

Some youtube videos give this bike a low score during their reviews but they assembled the bike incorrectly. The brake brackets of the front wheel should be in front of the front fork, not behind it. So basically their front wheels are installed backwards.
