Tags: Take care of Rack Trunk 3-Bike Express E3 Hollywood Mount Racks
December 30th, 2009
Good fit. I have an 04 Malibu with a spoiler and Hollywood Racks E3 Express 3-Bike Trunk Mount Rack fits fine. You need something to tie down the excessive slack but no problem on short trips. Also on the spoiler you need to put down a rag so the metal on metal don’t scratch the paint. All in all for the price i am very pleased.
Wanna Razor Dirt Bike MX650 Motocross Rocket Electric
December 29th, 2009
O.K. product. It seems well built as far as durability goes. I can’t give Razor MX650 Dirt Rocket Electric Motocross Bike 5 stars because there is a glitch in the electrical system. After riding for 25 minutes or so, the motor will cut in and out. There’s a battery indicator on the handlebars that still shows full when this occurs so battery life seems good as far as I can tell. Customer service promptly sent me a new controller, I haven’t had a chance to replace it yet so I don’t know for sure if that’s the problem, but they shipped it out right away without any hassle and I had it in about a week.
What people think about Bike LED Safety Planet Light BRT Multi-Use Bicycle Strap
December 23rd, 2009
This is the one to buy!. We read about this light first when Planet Bike BRT Strap Multi-Use LED Bicycle Safety Light was praised by the NY Times. They were right! My wife runs in the dark and this light protects her better and is more comfortable than any other light that previously she has used. L. Sherman
1300 Upright Resistance Bike Magnetic Stamina line
December 17th, 2009
Stamina 1300. The bike is as advertised. Easy to put together and stable to “ride”.
Only drawback so far, is the seat. The seat angle could/should be adjustable – but it’s not. Also the seat is very low end, hard/not comfortable. Will be looking for another seat or gel type pad/cover soon. Overall though, good value for the $$.
Running Bike Yellow Strider – PREbike™ OK?
December 17th, 2009
Awesome balance bike!. We got this bike for our son for his second birthday (ours is orange). He is now a month over 3 and rode is peddle bike 3 miles last weekend – and never had training wheels! We love the Strider. It is light weight, making Strider PREbike™ Running Bike – Yellow easy for a youngster to control. It has a low cross bar making it easy to let the bike fall while the child remains standing, straddled over the bike, and unharmed. We thought the fake air valves on the solid tires were just silly, until we were airing our tires and he insisted we add air to his tires as well! Well played! – no tantrums! At just over 2 1/2 he was riding his Strider at the skate park, navigating the bumps, riding down the smaller features, and thoroughly enjoying himself. I was amazed at his increased ability to steer after only one trip to the skate park. Even though he is very good at his peddle bike now, we keep the Strider around for riding down the dirt slope at our house, or trips to the skate park. An excellent training bike!
GMC Bike Denali Road chance
December 17th, 2009
Cyclists BEWARE.. I received my gmc denal road bike about a week and a half ago, the first day I received this bike the stock tubes blew out after about 20 minutes into riding, then the following day the kick stand on the bike snapped off
when GMC Denali Road Bike was adjusted back up (not exagerating), and on top of these things the chain constantly slips and the brakes are horrible even when adjusted. And when riding one day the allen nut that hold the handle bars and the fork together loosened completely and almosty made me wreck.
I guess the saying is true “you get what you pay for”…I highly DO NOT recommend this bike to anyone, not even a begginer it is dangerous and a number of things go wrong with these bikes. So in conclusion I had to send this bike back after not even 2 weeks of riding it!? unbelievable.
Down with wal-mart bikes!
Think of Mens Road Schwinn Bike Prelude ?
December 17th, 2009
A great Start. After a stressful day of going around with an Avid cyclist, trying to find a good road bike to fit my budget, we gave up on going to all the local cycle stores and took our hunt online. We came across this bike and my friend was hesitant with giving Schwinn Prelude Mens Road Bike the o.k, however it turned out to be a good call. I’m around 5′10 200 lbs, and the bike fits me great, though as previously stated the handle bars are a bit iffy, but you get used to it pretty quick. After riding about a year I’m now ready to upgrade, but it’s definitely a great bike for any starter. I’ve put at least 500 miles on it and I stress at least, and its held up great.
Yes.. Mountain Girls Pacific Bike Evolution
December 17th, 2009
Inexpensive 6-speed 20″ girls bike. I purchased this bike for a specific goal – an inexpensive 20″ girls bike with speeds or gears for an almost 8 year old who outgrew a 16″ single speed bike. Use will be for streets & rail trail rather than true mountain biking. I was looking for hand brakes and multi speeds, but not necessarily a derailer bike, as this is. But 20″ 3 and 5 speeds were hard to find. So, despite some low ratings on other Pacific models, and no ratings or evaluations on this one, for under $100 I took a chance. Main reason – I found that Pacific is a sister company to Schwinn. That said, the bike is made in China.
We’ve had Pacific Evolution Girls Mountain Bike for 3 weeks, so I have can review it for everything but longevity. Its not too bad, but not too good either. Pluses are 6 speeds, cam adjustable seat height, comes with kick stand, attractive design. Basic assembly was easy, but derailler adjustments less so. Minuses are cheap construction (not than an 8 year old would notice) like very visible welds and cheap parts. Manual isn’t model specific. In my case, the shaft for the handlebars was a bear to get into the frame. I would have liked the seat to go a little lower, but my daughter’s growth will fix that in a month or two. But I can’t use the red reflector at the seat height she needs now. Rather than not have a rear reflector, I mounted a reflector on the back of the seat.
The hand index shifter broke while I was trying to get the speeds adjusted. (Out of the box it wouldn’t go to either end of the range). Probably my fault (hint – don’t try changing gears without cranking the pedals). Called the 800# and got the replacement in 4 days. So, customer service seems pretty good (although I was a little scared when they said the shifter was backordered and didn’t have a shipping date).
Took my time this time and got all 6 speeds shifting fine in about 1/2 hour. If you can’t handle pliers, hex wrenches and a phillips screwdriver, don’t get a bike online (and definitely don’t get this one). But if you’re somewhat mechanically inclined and don’t want to shell out more than $250 bucks for a bike your kid will outgrow in a couple years, this one is worth considering.
I’m hoping its built to stand up to kids’ ordinary use and abuse to last while my dauther goes from 8 to 10 or 11. But if it doesn’t, I won’t be out much $$ and I may have bought enough time for her to grow into a 24″ that she’ll have for a while.
