    Liz, you have such a kind and gentle nature about you -- what a sweet presence. I also appreciated the information you provided -- it was methodical and well thought out, and very considerate. Thank you for sharing:) Glad you like your bike!

    The basket zip tie was ingenious! I like the "I belong to" sticker too! Thanks for posting your experience!

    Thank you for making such a comprehensive review Liz. It is refreshing & helpful to hear your decisionmaking to meet your needs & budget. This is definitely a budget bike, and it's great that you adapted it to your needs like replacing the seat with a more woman-friendly one & modifying the rear rack to hold your things.

    The paper tray idea is genius.

    Might get a lightly used version of this bike (with a different shift layout, 8-speed). Appreciated this review. The work you did to index specific timepoints in the video really helped, thanks!

    As a dude I jumped on the seat and put a tilt forward on it and its a street bicycle's saddle. I put two points of my hip rest on the rear of the saddle. My brake cables came in pink and assumed this was a women's bicycle but I'm loving it as is.

    I got the same bike for my birthday. Honestly it was cheaper than some of the similar bikes at Target. My dad is going to assemble it. I love the look of it. I feel like it's perfect for the city. I got a basket for the front.

    Hi Liz, thanks for the review!
    I’m looking into buying this bike but I was wondering if it is too heavy to move it around.

    How's the bike treating you so far? 9 months later.

    Do you have plans to put panniers on your bike so you can get groceries? Do you walk to the store vs getting in your car?

      I don’t really have plans to put panniers on. I have ridden my bike to the store for small things, but since I’m already at the weight limit with it, I can’t load it up too much.
