The Kent is a WalMart offering. I have bopped around the bike trails with my kids on one and cuss it more often than not. I have built up a couple bikes with quality components that work like a dream. The Kent I can get to work for a little while, but it just doesn't have the quality of components to work right for more than a couple miles - and that was after swapping the front deraileur for a Shimano wide cage model, swapped the chain for a lower end Shimano and dumped the Falcon Freewheel for the now discontinued Shimano 11-34 7 speed. Bottom line is if you want it for cruizing around the neighborhood and don't care if it doesn't work quite -right you will be fine. Just don't expect it to work like a bike shop bike.
