This is also not a $400 MSRP bike by any stretch of imagination, this is a $120-150 bike, or at least it was pre-pandemic.
Good value for riding around the neighborhood or gifting to a wife or a kid that won't try crazy shit on it.

I'm cleaning up these suspension posts from a couple used "comfort" bikes (specialized and diamondback) I got at the thrift store so I can sell them to pay for solid posts. Not a fan of the bouncy seats! Lol.
However the 27" tire is usually a small relatively skinny road tire and the 27.5" is usually a more voluminous knobby mountain bike tire.
So the kickstand will probably work, but no guarantee. A bike shop will often just stock an extra long kickstand and chop it down to fit the bike.
Had a bit of trouble adjusting the calipers, on both rear and front, the pads where not centered and very unbalanced (one side had 4mm separation and the other 1mm), anyways it took me like 1 hour to get everything properly adjusted.
Other than the "upgrades" and time you have to dedicate to get everything properly adjusted, it's a decent bike for $100 before upgrades. I think I like that this is actually decent for being that price. Absolutely not worth it at the original price, the components are extremely cheap, on their own (break system, gear changer, etc), the expensive part is the frame itself. So like someone else commented, this is a serviceable, upgradeable, decent bike for $100.
Suspension is decent! I had to break very suddenly and I felt the suspension absorbing the energy instead of catapulting me face first, that was awesome 👍...
If you want a better bike, you have to, simply put; spent more money... but I like that I'm getting my money worth for the $100 I wanted to spend at having a basic bike. I didn't need a bike, but I was willing to throw $100 at it, it was worth it (to me)
If you have any questions let me know.
Within the last month, I have bought two Huffy Rock Creek at $98 each and a Schwinn Sidewinder at $168. All three have issues with the front derailler, so I converted the front drive train to 1x. The mechanical disc brakes on the Schwinn are not the best, as the calipers only clamp from one side, ending up twisting the disc every time.
This Decathlon ST100 at $98 came in a well packaged box to prevent damages. It took 30 minutes to assemble. Everything worked. Additional point for the finish: the matt red paint scheme makes the bike seem modern while not being too loud.
I'll still keep all four bikes for the family to ride around town for exercise.

I build bikes and I know this type of kickstand is good for this bike, as this bike has flat chainstays for better clamping and you need the top extension to support its mass weight.
