Kent bicycles present the flexor dual-suspension mountain bike, an affordable way to experience the great outdoors. A sturdy steel urt dual-suspension frame with a front suspension fork is the heart of the package. Motivation comes in the form of a 21-speed drivetrain featuring a Shimano rear derailleur. Slow-taxation is accomplished with sure-stopping front and rear linear-pull handbrakes. Fat knobby tires provide grippy traction and high-profile wheels with machined braking surfaces keep the ride straight and true. When the journey gets long, you'll be happy with the Vitesse padded saddle and easily adjusted seat height with no tools required via the quick-release seat post clamp. Ideal for adult males.

This is a really mediocre to bad bike. $75 might get you a OK beach cruiser or single speed commuter bike, but something as complicated as a full sus MTB at this price point is a catastrophic failure trying to happen. Just avoid

Agreed. This bike is fully suss.
A neighbor kid has something like this. It's super heavy and barely works right. He hates it and has nicknamed it the Sledgehammer.

What you mean. It comes with full damp NSB coils which is great for this price. Very straight forward.

Everyone is entitled to an opinion, and so are you.
I gave mine, which I think was pretty straightforward.
This is a needlessly complicated and heavy bike. You gain zero performance from all the make-belief "suspension", extra gears etc.
Don't get me wrong, this can make many kids who cannot afford anything better, to smile for miles. Any bike adds value to a "no bike" situation.
BUT, if you want something to last with minimal maintenance and good chances to work properly out of the box, I would avoid this and all stupidly complicated, make-belief bikes, and get something simple and honest. Look up the 700c Kent Ridgeland Hybrid Bike for example. A simple, classic commuter bike that can work for years with nearly zero maintenance (yes, I had a previous version of that exact bike). If you know how to work on bikes and can borrow a couple of tools, you can tear it down to make sure it is properly greased (not always the case with these super-cheapo-bikes) and with some regular maintenance this bike can last "forever".
Brakes were a bit of a joke, but "worked" OK for the character of the bike, and if you really want to upgrade it, you can get a couple of better V brakes from Amazon or walmart's own marketplace and make it happen. They just cannot afford to put anything better when they built it to such a low pricepoint.
If we are critical about the flimsy stamped rim-brakes on that Ridgeland, the OP bike, is "a joke" from top to bottom and I expect it to creak and bust and break and rust all the time. Consider yourself lucky if that thing gives you no issues.
If you have to have an all around decent bike from Walmart, look into their Ozark Trail MTB and Gravel bike...these are decent, but ofc we are over $200.

These bikes are as good as the person that assembled it.
They're not great out of the box but if you take your time to put it together right, grease fittings, adjust derailleurs and brakes, etc.. it'll be fine. Especially for this price.
