Compared to Huffys and Schwinns this is a cheaply made bike. I love the look though. Matte black with the purple rims - looks great. Bike it heavy. Black paint scratches easily off (while assembling bike). Grips are a fake leather with plastic ends(thought they would at least be metal). Seat is ok. For the money you would expect more since Huffys are comparable in price but nope! Just letting you know what to expect.
