Nirve Starliner Men's Hybrid Cruiser Bike Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought my 17" Men's Nirve Starliner from Amazon, on sale, way below the list price. The package arrived on time, and was in very good condition.Parts were carefully packed and undamaged. One lock-nut was missing and was easily replaced. Everything went together easily; though the brake assembly was not the type pictured in the assembly booklet and I had to go online at the Nirve website to download the correct instructions to adjust them. Once assembled, it differed from the product picture in three respects -- the seat does not have chromed springs, but black rubber bushings; the tires are blackwall, not gumwall; and the derailleur gear was not painted red. Otherwise exactly as pictured.
The bike is a pleasure to ride. Solid feel. The seat is basic and might need an upgrade, but otherwise there's been no need to change things. Shifting is easy and reliable, though there's a big step between 1st and 2nd, and between 6th and 7th; otherwise the gears are nicely spaced. All in all a great deal, a very good bike. Highly recommended.

Whether you're meandering around your beach community or commuting to work each morning, the Nirve Starliner men's hybrid cruiser bike is an excellent choice. The Starliner sports an aluminum Sport Cruiser frame and lightweight, easy-rolling alloy 700c wheels, making it extremely sturdy but light enough to lift onto a hitch-mounted bike rack. The Shimano Mega-Range seven-speed transmission, meanwhile, accommodates several types of terrain, from moderate hills to flat streets.
Perhaps the best feature, however, is the Sport Cruiser handlebars, which help you ride upright for the ultimate in comfort. Other details include a Nirve comfort saddle with springs, impact-resistant polycarbonate fenders, and an alloy kickstand. The Starliner carries a three-year warranty on the aluminum frame and a one-year warranty on the components.

26" Men's Good Vibrations Cruiser Huffy Bike (EA) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My 26" Huffy "Good Vibrations" bicycle is a very nice bike. It is wide enough to fit a large man. It looks large and heavy, but it really is light and rides very smooth. The wide tires allow easy ride on grass, sand, and dirt. I've really enjoyed my bicycle rides around town along with my wife and kids. I recommend this smooth ride.

Schwinn Lakeshore Men's Cruiser Bike (26-Inch Wheels) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I really like this bike. My friends have compared it to riding an arm chair it's so comfortable. Here is everything that is wrong or has gone wrong with it:
-two of the bolts to attach the seat were missing. $5 to replace
-a tube went flat immediately. $5 to replace
-the rear derailleur up and broke. $35 to replace
Despite this, it was still worth the money and when the bike is working, I like it a lot. A lot of strangers admire it.

Schwinn Network 7 Women's Hybrid Bike (700C Wheels) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered this bike after trying for about 3 weeks to get Amazon to ship me the Schwinn Discovery. I'm happy to say that it is a good bike, even though it wasn't what I originally wanted. It is a bit heavy, but not so much that it's difficult to get up and down the stairs of my apartment. It provides a smooth ride even over bumps. I'm used to riding mountain bikes so it took a bit of getting used to, but now I'm in love. Also the bike is a bit large, I'm just under 5'5 and it's very nearly too big for me(I have to drop the seat all the way down) so if you're a shorter woman this may not be your cycle of choice. I'm also a big fan of the fact that the rear rack matches the bike so it doesn't look like an after thought. It also makes the bike great for a commuter.I would have given a full five stars, but when I received and assembled my bike the wheels were not true and there were some issues with the gearing. I had to take it to my local sporting goods store to have it adjusted because those things were beyond my skill set. Now if I can find a good set of panniers or a basket to mount on the back rack I'm all set.

Schwinn Miramar Men's Comfort Bike (26-Inch Wheels) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ordered this because I'd seen another Amazon review saying the assembly was easy, and I was happy to find this is true for me too. Since there are no directions, I thought I'd do my part by giving other buyers a couple of tips. You will need a couple of hex wrenches -- I already owned one of those little Craftsman sets with all the sizes attached to the plastic grip handle. You will need the inch measurement ones, which is the set with the orange handle. This is the only tool required. You will need a pair of household scissors, too, and an air pump for the tires.
The bike will arrive with the handlebars detached and folded over by the cables and strapped to the bike frame with a plastic fastener strip. The front wheel and the seat post (with the seat already on) are also on the side of the frame. Cut the fastener strips off. To put the front wheel on, find the axle in the little cardboard box, put it through the wheel after uncrewing the axle cap so you can put it through the wheel. Now just put the axle through the front fork and flip the end lever on the axle to hold the front wheel on.
Put the seat post in, and then turn the lever on the band which adjusts the seat until you have the height and direction of the seat where you want it, and lock down the lever.
To put the handlebars on, first take the protective black cap off the end of the handlebar post. You do need to hold the handlebars just the right way because the cables are already attached, which is good in the long term. It took me about three minutes of trying several positions until I figured out how to slip the handlebar post in, but eventually the light bulb came on over my head and it was simple. Once they were in, it was a snap to put the handlebars where I wanted them. I took the protective little black cap off the adjustment nut at the top of the stem, and used the Craftsman allen wrench. Turning the nut makes the bottom of the handlebar stem 9down in the bike frame) expand and this holds the handlebars in position. After adjustment, put the protector cap back over the nut to keep the rain and dirt off the nut.
Now pump up both tires, and you are almost done. Now you just have to fasten the front brake cable. Use a smaller allen wrench from the Craftsman set to slightly loosen the nut which holds the cable, and thread the cable through the little holder bar on the left, and then put the cable back where it originally was, and tighten it. You can look at the back brakes to see how it goes.
The pedals are in the cardboard box with the axle for the front wheel, and they are labeled L and R so just match them to the L and R stickers on the crank arms, and screw in the pedals. You are done!
The whole thing did take me an hour, but that's because I had to figure it out. Now that you have the steps, you can do it all in half and hour, easy. Happy riding!
