i like the bike. its light and sturdy at the same time. its easy to get on it and rides smooth with a smooth shifting from gear to gear. it was easy to assemble. however i was shipped the wrong color. i can accept the color burgundy but preferred the silver rose. as a matter of fact, silver rose was the only color available on line. I can't imagine sending it back. the down side to ordering a bike over the internet. I also feel that i paid to much for this bike expecially at this time of year. was expecting a sale price. also was disappointed in the seat. it wasn't very wide as advertised. the advertisement claimed the seat was engineered for women, but i had to order a seat that was wider and made for women at a cost of 25 dollars. over al i like the bike.
