An attractive vintage style bike that is fantastic for the price. It is tricky to put together; I recommend reading the instructions and looking at the pictures carefully. Take your time, it is worth it. I bungee-d a milk crate onto the back for additional package space, as the basket is a little small; listed as being able to carry a max of 22 lbs the measurements are: H7.5 x Width at top 10.25 X Width at bottom 7.5 X D 7″. The seat is becoming squeaky as I use it more, but hopefully a little WD40 will take care of that. Lastly, I went over it with a fine tooth comb making sure that any of the metal decorative sheeting wasn’t rubbing against the wheels or chain; it is a silent bike (aside from my aforementioned squeaky seat); thus initially I had to manipulate and bend the sheeting over the chain so it didn’t rub. An easy solution. The silicone handle grips can be removed so you can slide the drink holder off to switch sides for lefties, but it requires determination and patience – it was not an easy task. It is heavy and the handle bars are wide so carrying it up stairs or through doorways can be a bit of a struggle and as it is a one speed I recommend walking it up hills; unless you have quads and knees of steel! I recommend getting a heavy duty security chain for this beauty; on my first day toodling around town, I had people calling out “I like your bike!” And several people approached me asking me where I got it. Keep this baby safe! It is well worth it.
