1) It's made by the same parent company if you didn't know (Brunswick bicycles,was it?),so the "brand name" sticker plastered on it really doesn't mean much (assuming you're talking about the OP's bike...which she bought years ago and did have her neighbor go over it,sigh,people,READ THE THREAD,ugh!)
2) REALLY good advice-with any bike,but especially a dept. store bike
