Good video, I just bought this bike and so far like it. I also use the map my ride app. Tip buy the RAM mount for your smart phone and it gives you great access and view to your phone that way you dont need s watch or bag for your phone. I have my RAM MOUNT universal cell phone/pda mounted on my handle bars
I bought one of these at Walmart recently. scored it for $96. It had been returned, and was sold at a discount because of this. I like it very much. Mine works exactly as it should, and hasn't needed adjusting yet. All the fasteners were tight on mine. I am very happy with this. This is my first bike in over 20 years. Not every bike assembler at Walmart will be as efficient as the one who put mine together naturally. Everyone has a different idea of a "nice bike". I like mine. Thanks for sharing
never buy a Walmart bike they are cheep and may look cool but looks are deceiving. this bike will break in 2 years. you need to step it up a natch. go to nashbar.com and you can buy 650 dollar bike for 400 dollars and you get 20% off witch takes care of shipping. i bought the mongoose tyax elite witch was the best bang for your buck i have ever seen. i has hydraulic disc brakes and a suntor fork with 1mm trave, double walled tires.
i like this bike, im going to do alot of offroad with mine... or thinking about it.. so it will get pretty dirty and dusty, i guess cant avoid that, but first try the chain fel off and got stuck ... i had to take the bolt off to get it back out.. which tells me... walmart... bah. But now it's running great .. i like it so far.
heres a trick me and my buddies use for the shock problem...any synthetic motor oil...works better than any lube or grease and has better value just be sure to wipe the extra off and pump the shocks a few times to get it in there
man i just bought this bike and both of the brakes rub just a little bit, i cant go into a few gears such as on the front derailer i cant reach 3rd gear. on the rear i cant go into 1st.i guess its all just where you buy it from.but the plusses were the suspension, speed, and tires.
@bamaboy042898 I have found that if I keep my gear on 7 (which is 1 on left and 7 on right) I can easily switch from anywhere on the gears. Another you might want to do lube the chain or when riding move the chain around onto the other gears. Sometimes when buy something from Walmart or other stores you need to lube them or tighten bolts up or whatever. But I love the bike I have not had any problems with so far. Thanks for your comment hopefully my tips will work for you :-)
hey man, really nice video.one of the best reviews ive seen.you point out both the flaws and bonuses not just flaws.and you go over pretty much everything.keep up the good work.

The reason the front suspension dries out so quickly is because WD-40 is a SOLVENT not a LUBRICANT. It does the opposite of what a lubricant does.
gopatriots35 7 months ago
@gopatriots35 Yes I understand now (:
DeanC993 7 months ago
@gopatriots35 fun fact for all WD-40 was developed by nasa and stands for W-ater D-isplacer and the 40 means it was the 40th try

@bamaboy042898 A way to fix that is too adjust the front derailer u may have to adjust the rear one somehow.
