Firstly I'll like to say I'm a fan of big wheeled bikes. This bike looks awesome especially the blue rims. For a bike with the size wheels it's actually light weight and feels very sturdy.

This is a GREAT bike, if you don't want to have the ability to steer. The bolt for the handle bars doesn't tighten down enough to be able to steer. I tightened it down to the point it would strip the bolt, and the handle bars still spun freely while the tire was stationary. I took the handle bars apart, and there was nothing to stop it from staying loose. This is a very cool looking bike, just make sure you buy replacement pieces because that's the only way to ride the thing, with different handlebars, different seat, and who knows what else.

it looks and rides great, just be prepared that it is longer and heavier than even a steel beach cruiser (my last bike). I'm going to add a motor for hills. I had mine professionally put together and added a basket and back rack also a super thick chain because u locks are too small (that added 7.5 pounds) and I add a anti-theft alarm--they are cheap and loud and really work! This bike gets a lot of attention, and you need to protect from thievesI love my new bike

I waited sometime before writing review. Have done close to 1000 miles on this bike. Had bike shop put together. Had gel seat added as well as handlebar extension. Made it way more comfortable. Heavy bike no lie. Solid on almost all terrain. Wheels are rugged show only mild ware after much mileage. Brakes are poor and have replaced many brake shoes. It should have had better brakes. It should have had water bottle holder. But it is cheap. You get a lot of fat tire bike for much less. Solid frame and gears. 7 speeds is ok would have proffered more. Great into to fat tire bike at low cost point. Except for a bit of rust it has held up well for heavy use. Normally do 8 to 12 Miles a ride. The real benefit of the heaviness is that when you try another bike you just fly. It would be a challenge to go 14 mph on this bike. But by training on this when I get on my Trek road bike I am flying at 21mph. If your rich I would say go for a costly fat tire bike. Manu I had looked at were 1500 plus. For the 675 I paid I have gotten my money's worth. It needed the seat and handlebar upgrades. If they manufacture again they should make sure to upgrade the brakes. Great intro fat tire bike but be Willington haul the extra weight. At mile 9 and 10 you truly feel it. But your better trained for it and your wallet is happier as well

I saw this bike listed for $525 on the manufacturer's site and $475 at Academy, so I thought it was a heck of a deal for $350 at Amazon. Other reviews said the brakes aren't great so I knew that going into it but I'm only giving 3 stars because the package arrived damaged, the bike had several spots of scratches and marring, and the fork was bent so badly that the front tire would not fit between the lowers and the axle would not line up in the drop outs. This was also mentioned in one other review.Amazon would have accepted a return but that would be a pain since it is large, heavy, and I'd already unpackaged it. Plus, it is a birthday present for my son and I don't have time to order another bike so I would have to buy whatever happens to be in stock at a retail store. So, I decided to make it work.After trying brute force and hurting myself, I ended up using the jack from my wife's Sienna. I positioned it with wood blocks between the lowers and spread it out enough to get the tire mounted. It hasn't been ridden yet, but it's assembled. I'll update this review after a test ride.

This is a pretty decent bike for the price I got this to ride to work I only live a few blocks away from work. and it has been a good ride so far. I have had it about a month now and ride it almost every day. I added some bags and a rack to carry stuff and I am really happy. im excided to see how it does in the winter. over all great bike for the price.

Purchasing this bike was the biggest mistake I’ve ever made. From the moment it arrived, I knew something was wrong—it was damaged, with faulty brakes and gears that simply don’t work. The bike is nothing like what’s advertised. It’s extremely heavy, making it a struggle to handle, and the shifting mechanism is unreliable and noisy. The ride is bumpy and far from smooth, which completely defeats the purpose of having a bike. To top it all off, the bike doesn’t fit properly, making it uncomfortable and impractical to use. I strongly recommend against buying this bike.

I'm soon to be 69 years old and am 6' and 250 lbs (heading towards 200 which is the reason for buying this fat bike). It is a solid performer and everywhere I go people yell "nice bike" as I go by. Everything works well and I'll be riding well into winter getting my legs in shape for skiing. I've got a short inseam of 31" . I had to deflate and reinflate the tires to achieve proper seating of the tire on the rim and the front tire is still a bit out of round but it's geared for low speed so perfect tuning is not needed for a comfortable ride

Had a great experience with this bike so far. Instructions are surprisingly clear and detailed. The parts are good enough quality for the price. What sells me is the v brakes that are pre-installed instead of the disc brakes. It's much easier and cheaper to maintain, tune, and replace. After riding this bike in 15cm of snow, I can attest that it is fully capable, and exactly what I wanted from a winter bike.

Pour le prix c'est un bon et un beau vélo pour s'initier aux plaisirs du vélo hivernales. Il est confortable et se contrôle bien grâce aux pneus de 4 pouces de large. Cependant, il n'est pas fait pour les sentiers extrêmes (assez lourd et 7 vitesses). Il faut prévoir plusieurs heures (3 pour moi) pour l'assemblage si vous n'êtes pas familier avec l'ajustement des vitesses et des freins. (conseiller de le faire ajuster dans un bike shop) Les freins manquent un peu de mordant. Malgré tout, le Takara Nobu reste un bonne option pour commencer la pratique de ce sport. Je suis très satisfait de ses performances. J'ai eu du plaisir toute l'hiver et même au printemps.

Great bike, not so heavy as it looks. Breaks are ok. Assembly instructions can be more illustrative.
