EUROBIKE 29in X9 3 Spoke Wheel Mountain Bike 21 Speed

very well built. my son is enjoying the bike very much. looks slick. but only worry is most of the design are stckers, insteas of paint. not sure how long it will last. but doesnt effect the built and performance.

Reading some of the reviews I was a little bit worried but by bike came unscathed. Set up took a little bit but it wasn't anything too terrible. It rides nice and I look forward to riding this summer.

Right off the bat, I gotta say this bike is pretty cool.For me, this bike is replacing a GT Peace 9r that was stolen (Thank you whoever you are) and at half the price I'm pretty happy. There were a couple of parts I could tell immediately I wasn't even going to deal with. I am not a fan of squishy suspension forks, so I never even installed the fork this bike came with because I could tell it was pogo stick squishy, and immediately upgraded it to a better fork. And for full disclosure, I also put on a more comfortable seat, grips, and reversible clipless pedals. And even with all those this bike was still less than half the price of other bikes I was considering purchasing.So let's start with the pros (besides the price)The ride feels good. Like my old GT Peace, 29" wheels roll over obstacles super well. While commuting in towns that have potholes and drain ditches in narrow bike lanes, this bike has done great! I have not yet felt like I'm being railed between pavement and cement, so the tires are good. The tubes are holding pressure really well but I will definitely replace them with slime tubes the moment I get a thorn through them. Weight-wise this bike is really comparable to my old GT Peace, not sure if that's really a pro since that was steel and this is aluminum, but I also had a solid fork on that one and this has a suspension fork. The rolling resistance is nice and low, you can duck into a downhill and pick up speed just fine. I've also gotten LOTS of compliments on how cool-looking the three-spoke wheels are. I also had a Trek FX hybrid bike in this price range, decent bike, but the hub in this bike blows that one away! On the Trek bike, I always felt like the pedals clanked really hard when I'd start pedaling after coasting because of the hub response, and while this one isn't super fast, it is a lot better than that!Cons:As I said, I could tell the suspension fork this bike came with was really bouncy, so I immediately threw that away. The fork I got, also on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09XL7C6R7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1) has been great but was almost half the price of the bike for a single part.The gearing and derailleurs all say Shimano, and they're not bad. I have a habit that even though I ride 21-speed bikes I really only ever use the top three gears of the gearset. That said, while riding slow speed uphill, the rear derailer has a tendency to not keep enough pressure on the chain which can cause the gear to slip with a jarring pop that almost feels like your foot is falling straight to the ground for a moment. I've had to change my riding style and actually use lower gears at slow speeds to compensate for this, not a huge deal, but something I thought I'd mention.I'm also slightly worried about the rims on this bike. As I said, I get a lot of compliments about how cool the three-spoke design is, but while installing them they definitely feel flimsy to me. Most of the visible material is just plastic, and from what I can tell each spoke has a single metal core inside the spoke. They're lightweight, easy to spin, and definitely cool looking, but I just don't think I'd trust them on super rocky trails or long drops. I'm just worried they wouldn't be able to take the pressure from certain angles and that they could end up snapping on me. They've proven great for commuting, but I can't say I'd recommend them for much beyond beginner off-road trails. I can't even find replacement 3-spoke wheels for a 9r bike on Amazon for less than this entire bike, so I'm thinking I should invest in a second set of wheels for actual mountain biking, and then just use the included wheels for commuting around town.Final thoughts...If you're looking for an inexpensive bike that would be a cool commuter bike around town, this is definitely one to consider. Eurobike isn't a brand that's listed on online Bike Registries, but there is still a serial number etched on the frame under the crank that can be registered on Bike Registration sites to help with recovery in case of a theft. If you're into more hardcore/professional mountain biking, I'd suggest skipping over this one and looking for something higher-end. But, if you're just getting started, or want something to help you stay fit and get around, or maybe want an inexpensive bike for a friend to occasionally join you, or just want a bike that looks pretty cool, I'd say you'd be hard-pressed to find a better deal than this one.

Great bike to ride but after 2 weeks of riding this is what happens. I’ve initiated a replacement order because I really enjoyed hitting the trails but we’ll see how it goes. This bike is 5 stars all day long considering everything stays together but if you don’t ride much then it may hold up but if your like me and look forward to every cool morning or sun filled afternoon then you may want to reconsider. I’ll post the results of my replacement bike and see if it holds up.

Best Bike I’ve ever purchased. Light weight, strong, and looks great.

I love the color and the rims. I get a lot of compliments of my bike. Rides smooth.

The Seller's video and description on set-up required are materially inaccurate. Not only do you have to install all that they state, you also have to install the front disk brake and adjust the tension on the front and rear disk brakes and the derailer that controls the gears. Plus, the instruction manual seems designed for multiple bikes, not just this one, so it is confusing. Also, while the bike looks cool in pictures, they use stickers instead of paint, and certain of the stickers were already peeling off when I removed the bike from the box. The bike still doesn't work properly, as the brakes aren't sufficient, and the bike won't go into anything but the first seven gears no matter how much I attempted to adjust the derailer. And yes, their instruction manual discuses adjusting the derailer, so apparently this is a common problem. While I've assembled lots of products previously (including a cheaper bike previously purchased from Walmart that was much better than this one), I couldn't make it work, so I've now had to take the bike to a bike shop to see if they can make it work, and I know that the minimum charge that I'll bear for that will be at least $90 in addition to what I paid for the bike. I would have just shipped the whole thing back, but once you remove it from the box and begin configuring it for installation, you'll never get the bike back in the box. I almost just threw the whole thing in the trash. There are lots of bikes available from lots of retailers. Don't make the same mistake that I did by purchasing this one. In fact, I'd stay away from any bike or product sold by this retailer.

Easy to put Together and smooth ride
