After watching your reviews, I just got this bike today! Went for a short ride. It is very good.
Awesome man! Congrats on the new bike. We love riding the Nishiki when we go camping. We affectionately refer to it as "The Campfire Bike". I'm not sure if you have watched all of our videos on the Nishiki but we have done some upgrades on it. Thanks man and hope you enjoy your new bike.👍
Bought a Nishiki Pueblo today. As a casual rider, I'm looking forward to having it for years. My previous bike was a Walmart Schwinn Sidewinder that lasted 10 years. It all depends on usage & care!
We named this bike the campfire bike because we like to have it with us when we are camping. Great bike for us after our subtle upgrades. We like it when we camp do to the reliability and the good on and off road feel, plus both of us can ride it. Have you seen the 1X7 and other upgrade videos? Congrats and make sure you subscribe and turn on notifications because we have some more upgrades and reviews coming up on the Nishiki in a month or so. 🚵
The Nishiki Pueblo is made of steel so it should last a lifetime. You may have to replace everything outside the frame though
YES! LOL It is a heck of a frame and I am willing to bet it will last a long time:)
The chicken sound effect gets me every time and I love this about your channel. Unique thing like Boostmaster's fist bump sound!
Heck ya man we love it too! Thought it was pretty fitting with the chickens we got and all:)
thank you for the review! just got this bike for christmas
Congratulations man!! Merry Christmas and its a wonderful ride!!! Everyone loves the oldschool frame design and with a little upgrades its my perfect camping bike:) Thank you for watching man
Me too! Can't wait to try it out...it's been raining for days!
Same.
Is it good?
Just got this bike as my first one since I was 13! Now I’m 20 and after taking it around the neighborhood a few times I think it’s a good one. I wish I knew enough ab bikes to know what all the sounds it makes because they scare the crap out of me sometimes lol. Taking it home from dicks was a bit of a struggle and I might’ve done something to it and that always plays when I’m hearing it make noises. Good work on the video and nice trail!
🤣 noises scare you and me! Lol Thanks for the comment brother. The nishiki is not a bad ride at all and we have upgraded it as well. Your noises may be the front derailleur, the thingy that shifts your front 3 chainring gears.I believe Dicks offers a 1 time tune up when you buy a bike from them, check up on that for sure.
I had a Nishiki Pueblo for about 2 years, and I really enjoyed riding it. Of course, shifting isn’t that great when compared to the bike I have now (Giant Talon 2), but in my opinion, it is a great mountain bike for beginners, and I would totally recommend buying one 👍
It's old school geometry.
Build for looong rides back in the 80s and 90s.
It just works.
All the noises and shift problems can be fixed.
Chainslap also easy fix.
Good video Bro, thank you 😎🤙
Hey thank you! And I like the looks as well man, maybe a throwback paintjob and saddle would top it all off?
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS
Just give it your own twist .
Every bicycle need to be personalised imo .
You right!
How do you fix the chain slap and gear problems?
Thanks for this review. I'm looking to start biking soon and I think I will get this bike. I'll not do mountain trails as crazy as these, but still, this seems like a good entry level purchase.
I would agree, the bike is solid and can be upgraded slightly. Thank you for watching and commenting Paulo.
Sounded like a TIE fighter flew by at 8:01.
I haven't ridden a bike since I was like 11 (36 now!) but I've been really wanting to start biking again. Bikes are impossible to find now but I found this bike (96 miles away!) and will be picking it up soon. I live in NYC so I won't be on many trails, hopefully it holds up well on streets
Heck yeah ha ha ha! Glad you got one and It should be a great all around bike. I can tell you its an amazing 1x7 now, very simple. You should watch the 1x7 video if you have not yet, we will be doing a review of the changes made so far and plans sometime soon! Thanks and be safe Rob!
I bought this bike at Dick's,I only rode it once on a paved road, never even hit a bump and noticed something felt off with the back wheel. So I grabbed the wheel and wiggled and sure enough there was an issue with the bearings. I took it back to Dick's and told them i want to exchange it and pay a little more for the GT Aggressor pro.I haven't had any problems with this bike, not even a chain drop so far... Knock on wood
Right on man!!! Gotta watch that beastmode!!LOL Hope it holds up and you treat it good ha ha. Good luck with the GT and thanks for sharing brother! Stay Safe
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS Thanks brother, I'll be riding everyday until this brutal Wisconsin winter gets here.
Hell yeah man, good to hear.Maybe a new Malus??? For the snowtime ha ha!!! Check the video:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I've never rode a fat bike but they look like they would be fun on rough terrain.
Dude they are like big Tonka trucks ha ha! You need one!
I got this bike used for $60 the guy had it for few years and it hardly rode it. no rust everything looks new and no dirt. overall good budget bike imo
You would be correct and should be arrested for theft! You stole that thing man!LOL Thanks for watching and hope you watched the review
Same thing here as well! Got mine for $40 and it’s in the shop getting the derailer fixed and a new chain. Literally didn’t work when I got it.
Going to go try to find more videos on this channel to see if upgrades are possible!
$80 clean hardly used. Liking the light gravel roads and paved bike paths. Not asking too much from it. A great COMFORTABLE riding bike. My butt, legs, back and arms felt great after a 10 mile ride.
Just bought my Nishiki Pueblo mountain bike from Rescue Workers Thrift Store Brand New Looking For $40 bucks.
It’s a badass mountain bike I thought when I first seen it for sale today.
Got it home just now and it is a badass mountain bike.
10 Subscribers to 1000 buddy way to go!! I’m betting the date to remember is gonna be May 29th 2020!!! Keep doing what your doing and surprise us here and there and you’ll keep growing!!
Thanks brother, i can feel it and im glad you can too:)
Hey man quick update on the bike the tires are going great and me and my friend bought the 1x and the tool needed but we got stopped by the arms so we bought the arms you have on one of your videos so yeah man the Gt is going great
Sound good dude! Make sure you pickup a chainring, thats cool as hell i am glad the tires are working out. Glad to hear it and thank you for the update. Later buddy
When I bought the bike the seat was uncomfortable so after a month with it I bought a new one for it. When I changed to the 7th gear it got stuck between the frame so I stayed away from that gear. Otherwise it's fine.
Funny man the same thing happened to me! Had to pry the chain out, TERRIBLE!!! LOL But all in all good bike man, thanks for commenting and watching
Nice review on that bike my friend, been waiting on the same bike for my daughter but is really hard to find it, actually any bike now, lol.
Once again nice video man, keep it up 💪✌
Thank you Magnum, she will like it. Very easy to ride and real fun it being a 26 and all. Thanks for watching as always and cant wait for our next bike!!!! Walmart is all i gotta say brother! Hope you watch it and comment as well:):):)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS testing the audio with the ole man lol. "Wanna talk about it??" Lol great review brother I wanna see The Wolf Man on that bike next video🤪 lol but looks like it be a great bike to pass down the old parts from the GT to And see exactly what you can come up with. Hell it may even be a good spare bike if you have someone that comes by and wants to ride or even a great new bike for a kid or someone wanting to get into riding and can't really afford a decent beginner bike or something? But, I'd def take some old parts from the GT and see what you can make of it first.
For sure man, all good ideas. It will be a frankenstein for sure.:)
You can try Dick's Sporting goods. I got mine from there.
Yup! The Pueblo makes a great looking commuter bike I’d say! But like you say ... it gets you on the trail for around $300. I know I’m not able to upgrade my Raleigh to disk breaks because of the year it is, but maybe the Pueblo is upgradeable! That brake sound makes me crazy!
How’s the GT coming along?? Guess what... I still haven’t received my repair stand yet!!
Something like the Schwinn boundary can be had for less money than the pueblo and three times the features The pueblo is an absolute rip off for the price at $300 I mean it has a quill stem cheep rim brakes single wall rims and the front fork is that that I would expect on a bike $100 or below.
Oh no! Still no stand yet? Well well well, thats a bummer man. And im with you on the brake noise!!! It looks like i may have to weld a plate to tube mount the caliper.Idk but thanks man, and the GT is great should have a video up of it Friday with the whole new drivetrain, very exciting!!!
Man right now walmart doesnt have any bikes at all. Atleast around here they didnt, just trying to show people if this bike is what you may have available during these times, well you might wanna watch this. But looked up the Boundary, not bad...
Yeah.. the availability right now of the Pueblo is spot on. And if you have nothing else to ride it will definitely ease your itch of cabin fever and get you on the trail. But anything this price and lower even if it has more features is definitely a work in progress to upgrade.
Happy to hear the GT is coming along! Looking forward to the next episode !!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS wow! walmart out of bikes cant say I've ever seen that! great review by the way!
Just bought this bike last week, rode for a few minutes and the back wheel started wobbling. I noticed that the barells were coming off from the hub. Taking this junk back to get the GT instead.
Man I cannot blame you!!! GT is gonna rock your world brother:) Good luck and I know a channel you can go to to get some ideas f needed;) Thanks Azhar!!
I bought one of these bikes today from Dicks Sporting Goods. Mine is red & black. It handles pretty well. Haven't taken it in the woods yet. Mine was $260 on sale. ☠️☠️☠️
I guess you are noticing the difference in reach, this bike is bigger, so reach is longer. Which gives you more room, and can have more relaxed position. But the steep headangle and the outdated cockpit is not great, but atleast you can get a ide ahow a bigger bike feels, but it will still be very different to a bike like my G1. But the increase in stability is due to the wheelbase, weight.
Yeah the bigger approach isnt bad, not hard to ride quite impressed actually for the price and build.
Hi. Very nice review. I have one. Have had it for probably 5 years or so. My goal is to start using it for exercise, no real rough terrain, but 50/50 trails and pavement. I ran over the back wheel with my truck....surprisingly I only warped the rear wheel. Could you possibly provide a recommendation for replacement? 26”. Would replacing both front and back be financially/performance more beneficial. I had no idea how difficult it would be just to find a replacement online. Head spinning. Thanks in advance!
Hey brother, here is an affiliate link for a rear wheel 26" it is a QR which would work and I believe it is a v brake. Check it out and you can just have a bike shop swap over your freewheel, but you are correct:) very headspinny!! I would just replace the rear wheel then eventually get a new ride:) But the Nishiki is pretty sweet ha ha! Thanks man:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS So I could not find the affiliate link, but I just got a wheel from the local bike shop here, 70 bucks, they switched everything over. Got it together, and now it seems like the bottom bracket is making a stress sound with down pressure on the left pedal. I am thinking I am going to order the Neco that you used in your upgrade video as I know it will fit, and try to keep all the additional parts that are already on it. My plan is just to follow your upgrade video, I assume I am going to need some specialized tools. Thanks again!
We ll man we will be sure to heck up on that Thanks and if it is a freehub they changed out for you that is very cheap!! Good find on that ha ha. Now you will need a BB Tool and of course the BB. Here is the one I used, it fits with just enough chainring clearence. Just depends on how much you try to center it. Here is an affiliate link and one for the tool:) Thanks man amzn.to/3qo6Ccn oh and here is a set with a puller as well:) rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2FUS-Bike-Bicycle-Cycle-Crank-Extractor-Puller-Bottom-Bracket-Remover-Spanner-Tool%2F353163047755%3F_trkparms%3Daid%253D1110006%2526algo%253DHOMESPLICE.SIM%2526ao%253D1%2526asc%253D20200520130048%2526meid%253D8cc63d82d99a4cc3856aac0cf540d14f%2526pid%253D100005%2526rk%253D4%2526rkt%253D12%2526mehot%253Dpf%2526sd%253D173342741328%2526itm%253D353163047755%2526pmt%253D1%2526noa%253D0%2526pg%253D2047675%2526algv%253DSimplAMLv5PairwiseWebWithDarwoV3BBEV2b%2526brand%253DUnbranded%252FGeneric%26_trksid%3Dp2047675.c100005.m1851&campid=5338684594&toolid=10001&customid=CranksetPuller
Just got this bike, I’m just getting into mountain biking so I didn’t want to spend a lot of money. I’m loving it so far tho. What are some of the upgrades you’d do right off the bat?
Well right of the bat I think the chain slap is a must to address. I plan on going to a 1X7 and changing from the grip shifters to a simple and cheap single old school clicky shifter. After that I will see what it needs most. I think that the next Nishiki Pueblo video is scheduled for 6-17-20 not 100% sure scheduling is more of my Dad's (Wolfman) thing. Okay we have the dates from the man himself lol and he says the 17th and the 1st are the dates that he has down for the next two Nishiki videos. So stay tuned and feel free to ask any questions you have and I will try to help you. Thanks for being a subscriber.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS Nice! Looking forward to the new videos.
Just filmed tonight man!!! Should be out sometime next week brother!!!
WOLFTICK VIDEOS did you ever post that video?
Yes we did give our channel a looksey.
On bike share this lightly modifying you should get one of those Shimano megarange freewheels at the back if you can find any Ranger gear set from 14 32
Hey man thanks for the input, may be doing that when we cycle back through it for sure, but dude it cruises so nicely on the campgrounds ha ha. Thanks Kris
Both of my brakes squeak and squeal really loud when I hold them in a certain place. It's annoying but the bike is awesome.
If you end up seeing my comment I wanted to ask what and how the left gear shift works.
Bike is pretty legit and the geometry is very sweet! Maybe some new pads??? Thay may be a future video for is, new pads would be nice lol. Thanks for watching man and see you soon!!👍👍🍻
The left gear shift is a friction shifter-it controls the front derailleur and adjusts the chain on the 3 chainrings when climbing or cruising. The largest chainring is for going fast, the medium chainring is for a mixture of the two and the smallest is when it is time to climb. You want to keep it on the one of the three chainrings up front while riding and change the rear freewheel only.
I got that same bike for my son but he only rode it once and bent the cranks so the pedal rubs now gotta get it fixed. He never rides it. We got a great deal on it for $149 on sale half off with coupon in 2018. but the one u have is a better color we got the gray and red
Hmmm... Im looking at possibly going to a 1x7? Maybe it will be a good option in the future for your sons bike. And that is a good price man! Hope to be doing some stuff with her this summer, thanks for commenting and watching and everyone comments on that cool colorLOL
Chain slap will happen even with a clutch on a proper rear derailleur, but not as bad as on this bike but wrapping the chainstay with a inner tube works great it dampens the noise too. But for bikes with cnc machined parts use a tape that sticks to it self I for got the name, but several videos on i. It's a 3M tape,i want to buy it, I will try to find the name agian. I want it for the chainstay close to the chainring.
Absolutely!
If the reach is good then you might want a bike that has even longer reach but has shorter stem. I reccomend checking out Nicolai/Geometron, but there are brands like Pole, too, but I went for Nicolai. I was confident in what I was getting,i had my reasons.
Well when it comes time i may check those out, thanks Johannes
I just bought the bike today. I'll only be using it to ride around the neighborhood, not doing any mountain biking. I've not ridden the bike yet, but for casual use, do you think the bike was worth $279.00?
Well it's all in how you look at it. We like this bike for when we go camping. We ride it on light trails and pavement. I think it is a solid bike that looks good and shifts better than most of the budget bikes that we have tested. Our Pueblo has become part of the family, but that's the emotional thinking. As far as logical thinking goes the Ozone Fragment from Academy is $199 and it is not bad. But for what your going to use it for it will be fine. For the $80 dollars difference I don't think it would be worth the time to take it back and then find a Fragment. I know this probably did nothing for you, but I like both bikes mentioned and could go either way. Make sure you check out our other Pueblo videos, you might like some of the upgrades. Thanks for commenting.
If you are gonna upgrade this bike at all you could throw the derailleur and shifter from the aggressor pro on it
That's right, there's a nice pile of parts from the GT.
Yeah man!!!! Just wait and see what we got coming in the mail! You will love it, WALMART BABY LOL:) Great budget
Not a bad idea, Dad said the same thing:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS I've got a few videos comin along hopefully soon! if this rain ever stops.....
Good we will be watching and im with you on the rain!!! TerribleLOL
im looking for a bike to take out on public roads and public trails but im not sure if a mountain bike like this one would be fine for casual cruising?
Man we use ours for campsite riding, light trails and paved plus asphalt stuff. It is just fine and it being a 3x upfront you will have plenty of gears to choose from. Good luck man👍 and thanks for watching.
Is this bike good to ride on a regular road or street? Also out of 10 what would us give this bike overall
Man we love that bike but if you compare it to something like the Ardor just $20 or $30 more than not so sure. The best part of this bike is that you can get it in different sizes. We love ours especially after some upgrades and usually use it for a campsite bike. If you are not planning to take it on anything crazy it should be just fine. Can't give it a number without having a certain criteria to score it by, but for around $300 dollars it's acceptable just not exceptional. Thanks man
You guys do great reviews.
Hey man thanks for the kind words. We hope you subscribed so you can stay up with out videos. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks
Is this ok to just ride on streets?
I would say that is were she would shine, that and light trails. You can always get some street tires for her? They are pretty cheap for a good cruiser compound. But I would say yes kinda has a frame built for the road.
Definitely slap a old inner tube wrap on that chain stay for protection .
ended up buying the girls version today as they didnt have the mens one avaliable, the seat is pretty uncomfortable, and gearing clicked for a while, but after breaking it in, it is a solid bike and enjoyable experience for its price. Would recommend if looking for something at 200-300👍
Very cool man, glad you got the kinks worked out:) It seems the bike is a great beginner bike for people to get out and ride, CONGRATS!!
Im a novice at mtb, i got gifted this exact bike. Ive taken it to CO a couple weeks ago and it was definitely fun!
Man I think its a great bike fir the money, fun and dont you just love the way it climbs over things with those 26" tires?😄😄
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS most definitely, thinking about upgrades but thatll wait till i brake smth haha.
😃Sounds good man let us know!
Y’all are only about dirty away from 1000 sub I hope u guys become very successful and great video
Hey thanks alot guys!
What the info on the upgrades I just got this bike and needing some info plz!?
Man we got a vidoe for that!! LOL
The tyres have a nice round profile, so they will transition from mid to side well.
They do , you are exactly right.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS did you figure out which tyre manufacturer it is?
No brand name man. Just plain with sizes
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS ok, I suspected that.
Hey Wolftick, please answer my question. I got this bike and the back gears wobble when I spin the peddles on the stand. Is this something I should be worried about?
Well I have had similar problems with a similar bike. The bike does have a freewheel and it means you have got a bent cog and or hub. I would look at getting a new rear wheel or maybe you have got warranty form Dicks?
I just want to grab a bike to ride around the city , don’t plan on going off road to any crazy terrain, seems like this bike will hold up how I plan on riding jt
Has held up nicely for us, hope you can make a decision!! LOL
WOLFTICK VIDEOS subbed btw thank you 👌🏼
nice dude....i need to find a sweet fat bike you heard me mention in our video today....you guys probably can point me in the right direction....I need a big one 28 inches at least....I don't need all the fancy stuff ....we don't even like to use gears....it's more fun to just stand up and chug and makes for a better workout....if you know a company or link please send it my way....thanks guys
Hey Jack and Dan, were not in with any companys but... I did some searching and was looking at different price points, now for what you want its looking like $379.00 at the cheapest.The bike will not become available on amazon till july but heres some info. The bike has 7 speeds and is considered a 1x7 drivetrain. So a little easier when it comes to shifting, but that doesnt mean you cant upgrade to a simple single speed. Bikes companys these days upsale the single speeds so trying to find a cheaper one is gonna be hard. But anyways it has a 26" wheel diameter and its tires are 4"! Very fun im sure from snow to sand. It does have mechanical disc brakes which i recommend simple and efficient.Its got a threadless headset which basically means the whole front of the bike is upgrade ready of you wanted to go down that hole. Oh and the frame size is an 18" so it will fit riders most likely from 5"5-6'3". Guys appreciate the question and if yall ever get a bike in the near future i hope to see it showcased in one of your awesome vids! Thanks Jack and Dan:):):):):)www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01GZSMDR8?pf_rd_r=K6C36FMWQGNMKAXJE5JK&pf_rd_p=edaba0ee-c2fe-4124-9f5d-b31d6b1bfbee
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thanks so much.....we are going to start looking more into these and thanks for the link......
You made some great points, but the thing about 26er wheels anndlarge frame combo, that's not the case, it's not because it's 26er it's cus frame is longer, so wheelbase is longer, making it more stable, but steering will still not be optimal, cus steep head angle will make front wheel wander, and the the stem makes the steering less direct, but puts more weight on the front wheel than a short would, a longer reach, shorter stem, and slacker head angle would be better, but that requires a stronger frame. So wishing for that for a bike like thst is unrealistic. You made many great points, yea the grips, shifters, yea I had the same issue but I had a kids bike with even narrower grip, but grips are way too narrow on the bike you got there, rear deraileur, the shifting problems is caused by weak cage spring, atleast on eof the causes I guess.
Well i think since the wheels are 26 theres less area when turning and climbing therefore resulting in less to have to respond to. And when i do it makes it that much more agile with such a small area to move.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS it won't make the bike more agile, short chainstay makes rear end easier to initiate a slide, steep head angle makes steering wobbly, bu actual agility, that wont make big difference, if you try a tandem, that lacks agility. but of course a bike that is too big for the rider won't be agile.
also there are those bikes that make steering hard, cus they got things wrong with how the fork is so when steering, bike wants to continue to steer you into a crash and you have to work hard to keep it where you want to, this is too complicated for me to explain now, there are many videos explaining, steering axis/head angle,trail,offset......
there is a common misconception that long wheelbase is not agile, and that you will struggle to get around a sharp turn, that's not the case, I know for sure, that's logic, but also i have a bike with such geo, sizing, and it handles great.
also, tyre contact contact patch, won't make much difference on rolling resistance or agility, unless it's low pressures, and huge difference in contact patch size.
but of course there are tyres that want to transition to mid to side easier, but having a tyre that is too eager to change direction is not desirable for me.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS i am not sure what you mean, but i made a comment, explaining some different things, that might relate to what you mean.
I for this bike for 15 dollars at a thrift store😂 . Love it
Great find!
Man who would even find this enjoyable, I guess I'm spoiled riding a Honda XR 200 R. Talk about getting beat to death I think I'll stick with gas powered.
C'mon now man, Dont knock it till you try it!! HA HA we call that the lazy way😝😝Appreciate you watching but what about an E bike??? Would you give that a chance? I would like to see a motocross guy on one!
i’m wondering if this bike can take some grass, potholes and some rocky dirt because i’m not a huge mountain trail guy
Hey aloe for sure dude! I think the way it is out of the box would be a perfect puddle jumper!
I just went to Dick’s sporting goods today I’m a small man I needed an XS 13 inch frame 26 inch wheel. Do I have a choice of colors on this bike at that size
What's up bud? Thanks for the videos. Hey I have to get a stem extender to change the handlebars out. I was wondering if 22.2 mm is the right size. I don't ha e the tool to measure the stem, if you know the size or if u could take I quick sizing for me it would help me out a lot!!!!!!!
22.4 is the size:) Good luck and hope it works out!! Thanks for watching man:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thanks so much for the response, you are the man!
Welcome👍
i take mine on trailes it does fine its just that those tires are trash
Absolutely man, we do need some new 26" tires, they are little stiff as well:) thanks for watching and commenting man:)
Did I get the wrong nishinki I got a 24 basically like this one just smaller is that ok I’m a man not a boy but I’m very short lol does it matter
😀 not at all man, if your comfy on it then that's fine lol. Your a man ha h me too but I'm only 5'5" so this frames waaaay to big for me!!! Good Luck
Can the handle bars be extended to make it easier on the back?
Yes you can get a new set of bars or simply get a new stem. That will raise up the height of the bars as well.
Is there any disc break mounts on the bike? or any possible way to upgrade to disc breaks?
Hey cam, sadly there are no disc mounts on the frame or forks.:( I will be looking at some upgrades here pretty soon as far as simplifying things in the drivetrain dep. But in order to upgrade to disc you would have to go with a new fork and rim that accepts the 6 bolts for a rotor. Then considering the bike is steel you would have to weld on a plate to bolt a caliper to for the rear. Its a massive budget bike man, but thank you for watching and hoped you liked and subbed brother!!!
Hey man! Nice video, where did you get that helmet? Pretty sick, I need that!
Hey Shamman thanks brother and the helmet I picked up at dicks sporting goods, for around $44 appreciate it man. Not too budget but its def better to be safe than sorry!!!!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS 44 is for sure budget most helemts are 80 and above
@Kalvin Lenoir-really is man, im surprised Ik got it that cheap! Right now there like $80, its crazy
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS yeah i found a good Giro one from dicks for 60
I haven’t had a bike since I was a kid but am interested in getting into it. I found the women’s Pueblo at Dicks today and they have it on hold for me. I wanted to do a little research on it before I bought it. Do you think the women’s will be comparable to the men’s review you just did?
Well other than the frame geometry(lower upper bar design) im sure the components will remain the same. So id say go for it! Remember I got mine and put it together myself LOL So any clanky noises were probably my fault. I think its a good bike for the price & to learn the ropes on again. But maybe you should look at the no sweat protection plan, it covers alot and includes free tune ups and 1 flat change. Let us know what you endup doing, im curious.Thanks for the question and hope you subbed!!!
WOLFTICK VIDEOS thank you so much for your input. I probably won’t end up with it because while I had it on hold, they sold it to someone else. I was so mad. But definitely subbing.
Hey well thanks for subbing! And thats a shame they sold your bike! had a campsite sold out from under me onetime really upset me!LOL But maybe if your still looking at getting into it I would checkout the Womens Laguna pro mountain bike from Dicks. Its $479.00 a little much but... Disc brakes all around and my buddies wife rides one and she loves it, a little higher $ but comes with some better amenities. Maybe think about it, thanks for subbing again and be on the lookout for my next budget bike, should be the next video coming out this week.$170.00
Cool video. I have a feeling you'll be doing some nice budget upgrades on the steel Nishiki? Bummer about those grip shifters..oh well.
Yeah man a little pain in the butt. But I wonder if i can change the grips without the shifters? Idk looks complicated. I just wanna shred the front and rerar derailleur and make it a single speed!:)
I just got this a week or so a go as it was literally the only option available from a brick and mortar location. I'm a truck driver and I've been in and out of multiple stores across the country all sold out of everything.
My experience with this bike was exactly the same. Everything was the same as if I made the video.
Ok for light work, low price point or beginning.
For sure man it is really hard to find a bike!!! Checkout my new video coming out Tuesday I think? I transform the Nishiki to a 1X7 and shed some weight. Thanks for the comment and hope you continue to watch brother.
1X7!!!!!!Coming in Tuesday!!!!!!!!!
I'm considering buying this bike from Dicks. I plan to use it just for exercise around town and cemented bike trail. Would that be suitable for this bike?
Hwy Rosa, I think it would be better suited for that style of riding. It is built well and has a solid frame. We love ours! Hopefully we can help with a few upgrade ideas if and when you get it. Thanks for watching and let is know👍👍
would it be a good bike to do wheelies on?
Man that bike being a 26" is very easy to pop a wheelie! Now it is steel so it is not very light but it is easy if that answers your question
I have the same bike, I have a bent rear axle, do you know what axle I should look for? Or have any recommendations on what axle I should replace it with
Man I'm sorry but I have no clue what size or even were to start. I would go to dicks and ask them for a proper size and or rim. Hope they can help😁
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thank you, I went to a local bike shop here in Houston and they were able to help, they got it back up and running. It's my first bike, excited to take back out in the trails and learn some more . Thank you!
Man cool! I hate when I cant help but a bike shop is soooo much better! LOL thanks for the update my man! Have fun out there
It’s an awesome bike
Man it really is not a bad ride!! Thanks for watching and we love our NISHIKI!! Thanks for watching, checkout the other vids as well👍👍
How would this bike perform if I wanted to ride it on a concrete trail or through the city for fitness?
Well thinking may be a little clunky to really try and push it to the limits. Concrete trails and light stuff would be great but it has more of a laid back frame setup and dont think it would be to good to really try and push yourself with it. A little too upright.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS Thanks
I have the same bike, how do you fix the chain slapping?
Well I'm working on that now actually. I'm trying to figure out if I can fix it without replacing the derailleur, but starting to loose hope on that. We will see or something soon I hope. I will let you know as soon as I have a good answer to your question.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS lose, not loose.
i kind of want tyo see what you can get away riding on this thing in the out-of-box setup.
Well that was it!LOL A little clanky and rough. But 279? Not bad...
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS idk I feel when I was a kid I had moreorless an equally janky bike and got away with more stuff haha. I'm curious to see how much you can get out of this thing without changing any major components. I.e. adding chain guides or rubber to the chainstay to reduce the chain slap, maybe swapping the brake pads to grippier ones. The mowing-lawn-money bike if you will :P
Dude every bike feels like my mowing the lawn money bike;)But yeah a little here a little there will be fun. Im looking forward to it.
Is this bike good for heavy riders ?
Well I'm 6'4" and weigh about 290lbs and so far with mainly just light trails and pavement it has done just fine. The stock fork is not great but works good enough for a camping bike. Hope this helps.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thanks man and yes this helped a lot
Can you make a video on how to adjust the gears
Well actually I would for ya man but just got done upgrading to a 1x drivetrain!!!!!:( Are you having problems with the rear derailleur?If so just remember adjust the first three-four gears first with only the high screw, it has a small H beside it. Then after that attack the low ones for the remaining three take it slow and remain calm!!!:) The new video should be out Tuesday on my nishiki, sorry we couldent help you out more brother.
WOLFTICK VIDEOS thanks man. I’m a beginner and I’m just learning the bike gears lol. I’ve got it figured out now thanks a lot. However can you explain what the gears on the left side of the handle bars do?
No problem man LOL, they are the controls to the front derailleur to adjust what the best type of gearing you are in for what kind of riding you are doing. Alot of climbing? Then shift the left side shifter all the way down to the ground and that will be the lowest gear set. Mountain/Trail? Then you want to be in the 2nd chainring, right in the middle. This will be a smooth transition from climbing and descending. Now Road? Going fast most of the time with little climbing, shift up like you are pulling the throttle. This will make it to wear you will have to peddle less but it will create more resistance making you go faster. Man I got that new video done and should be up Tuesday morning! Hope you subscribe and watch!!!!! Good luck and hope we helped brother
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS Thanks a lot man! I have already subscribed also lol. I will definitely watch the video. Thanks again!
Cool man later buddy!
what 1x did u buy
We reused the FMFXTR off of the Aggressor before we switched it to the IXF. The video will be out in the morning.
im in like dire need of a bike today is this worth it if I went out right now to get it?
Man it depends on your plans. Light trails it's very fun and for the future you maybe can upgrade a little. I would say if you are meeting up to do some light trail stuff and nothing crazy, go for it. If you want it for a downhill bomber and a jumper, no go. All depends brother, we love ours but it does have its place. If you are in need of a bike that bad though you might not have any other options.
Hey man thanks for responding, also is it worthit to wait for the walmart redline instead of this bike, thx
Well man for the price and the what you get, the redline is far superior to the nishiki. But if you are that hard up for a bike like in the previous post then waiting might be a long while? Maybe a bike we will checkout as well! Thanks for the question and good luck on the bike search.
nice clip 👌
Hey thanks man. Are you real or a bot?
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS what do you mean? ^^ I guess I'm real :D
Cool sorry for the late reply just you get put into the spam folder? Ha ha well man thank you for watching our content and hope you continue to!:) Got the Nishiki 1X7 video coming out Tommorow if you are interested
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS well that's strange... but as you can see, I'm real and also do video stuff 😅 I'm check out. I hope I don't forget 😉
Cool man Good luck.
whats the wheels size??
26" we gp thro all that on the initial impression videos
11:42
I can grab it for 130. I am 5 8 230 lbs and i want to spend more time on the trail..
Sad someone stole my Pueblo. It was a good bike but the gearing was absolutely terrible lol
Man that sucks! Hope you have some better luck soon. Yes it is a good bike. We enjoy it every time we go camping.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS awesome! Glad you guys are enjoying it!
Is this bike suitable for commutes as well as trailing?
I would say its more apt to commuting than light trail use. The gearing is fine when it comes to road stuff and the design is tough and simple. The frame does weigh a bit but, this bike with some flashers and road tires. I think it would settle in just fine. Thanks for the question man. It is our camping bike, travel on the road all the time with it to everyone of my fishing holes.
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOSThanks! One last question about the features of the bike. Would it have a derailleur hanger, or is the fork reliable while trailing?
Well i think thats two questions!LOL light trails the forks are fine and as far as the hanger goes, im pretty sure it doesnt have a hanger, its welded on the bike. But we have so much bikes i can let you know for sure man, maybe this weekend.:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS LOL. Ok, thank you so much man, your making my "journey to buying a budget mountain bike" soooooo easy :)
Cool dude and hope you can get your hands on one!!! If we didnt like ours so much we would sell it to you:) Peace man and be safe!!!
Also the grips and rubbers over the shifters wear out incredibly fast
Im sure they do! I think the whole bike might LOL
What the heck is this? The classic Nishiki Pueblo Comp with the Chromoly frame is worth it. Walmart style bikes with a steel frame aren't worth hearing about.
I have never heard of the Pueblo Comp. Is the Pueblo Comp more like the Pueblo or the Colorado? We only have one steel frame bike from Walmart, it is called Schwinn Sidewinder. We are actually looking to make the Sidewinder into a Dirt Jumper in a few weeks or so. This Nishiki Pueblo from Dick's Sporting Goods in this video is also a steel frame which a lot of people actually prefer. We use it for our camp bike and it has a decent size following which is indicated by the 20.5K views this video alone has. Welcome to Wolftick Videos and thanks for watching.
these bikes are best suited for light paved trails and commuting lol
Yeah found that out with that rattle trap! HA HA Not gunna put a bunch of money into it but maybe a little something something. Just wait for our next bike!!!! WALMART SPECIAL!!! Should come in soon
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS lol im excited and cant wait lol u should take this bike in a new direction like a comute bike with smooth comute tires and what not i think that would be neat.
Hmmmmmm? I like that idea ALOT. If we got hat direction we will give you credit, and dont think im just saying that!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS thanks man like i said im super excited to see where you take this
Oh steve just wait! Next bike video when and if we hit 1000!!!
That's your dad?
That's him in the flesh. You think I would take that crap off someone else lol.
Hard pass for me,look at that chain slap
OUCH!!! Man we changed it to a 1X nd it seems to help, well that with a shortening of a chain:) Thanks for watching man and maybe checkout the stage 1 upgrades?
What helmet is that?
It is a GIRO, got it at Dicks for $44? Pretty sweet huh!
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS really nice! Cant find it at dicks is it this one on amazon!!??

#defultimovie
👍👍Gotts to keep it budget man:)
Lol I know it’s ok great vid I dropped a like I would have done 2 if I could
LOL very funny!!! You can always like other videos??😂😂Ive got a 27" I mac that gets the job done btu funny, I bought the damn thing thinking (was told by an employee) it came with final cut pro!! It didnt and I threw a fit when I found out it was $250! For the price $2500 it should edit stuff for you!!
wrestler's ears..
Glad you noticed man! HA HA now sub or else!!!!:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS i was looking at both the Pueblo and the Aggressor (GT), i assume based on what you said.. the Aggressor is worth the extra $200? My kid is a HS fresh wrestler at 152lbs.
I feel it is, aluminum frame and 27.5 a little better than the Pueblo, I would say $200 better yes. 152 huh? Thats hell of a weight class man, best of luck to him and hope you let us know how he does here pretty soon! Go with the GT:)
@@WOLFTICKVIDEOS the GT is for him, i am going to take his Trek 820, which he has beat the heck out of in the last year. Thanks for the advice, the GT seems to be a better deal.
For sure man and hope you get that 820 going strong!!Good luck
😂
Yeah dude total mess!!! LOL Its all good though tough bike so far? We will see in the near future, cant wait for the next bike to come in.
