At this price points, anything complex is almost impossible to be of decent quality.
There is a reason a "dual suspension" bike with 3x6 drivetrain MSRPs less than the cruiser bike in the same deal: it's probably trash.
Get a simple bike for strolling around. That cruiser, or a rigid (no "pretend to have suspension") bike with a few speeds (say 1x7) if where you live has a few small hills you'd like to tackle.

You're crazy if you don't buy this
For $98 I would say this is an ok deal. The single gear is kind of weak. The overall cruiser feel is decent for rides around a neighborhood but with a single gear this may be tough on any hills.

Where was this "competition"?

The brakes were properly adjusted out of the box. The shifter didn't go into 1st gear but all other gears worked. I didn't know much about adjusting derailleurs but after one YouTube video and with a few simple hand tools, had it adjusted and now all gears are working great. I can't speak to whether this bike will hold up for heavy mountain biking but for the paved and dirt trails we ride it's been good.
Oh - the seat is very hard. I bought my wife a replacement from Amazon. Would buy again.
