need a cheap bike to get grocerys and go to dr


The GATEWAY / WAYFARER / Vilano Hybrid / ADMIRAL are essentially the same exact bicycles..............Same ONE-PIECE CRANK....Same "CloverLeaf Front Crank wheel....... same 7 speed set up--- Shimano rear derailleur....
All have Aluminum 700C (622mm wheel )
The Admiral has a mixte step through frame , where I think the others (Gateway, Wayfarer, Vilano..) have a regular step through frame.
They differ in paint color offerings. The Admiral has the most traditional handlebar shape. I think the GATEWAY is about the same shape, and the WAYFARER and VILANO hybrid have a handlebar shape that is more like a mountain bike shape than traditional Northroads cruiser bars.

THE MEN's Versions (DIAMOND FRAME) are probably exactly the same.

These Women's Step-Through versions are perhaps the best buys among these as the frame is large enough to accomodate most men, and the seat height adjustment is very good. Lets face it, if you have an older male friend that has not ridden a bicycle in 40 years, and is not what you'd regard as athletic with good reflexes and coordination..............then this step-through (Women's model) is the best bet for those outta shape men between age 45 and 80.
They are decent enough BASIC bicycles that are safe and reliable IF THEY HAVE BEEN ASSEMBLED PROPERLY...........ONLY IF THEY HAVE BEEN ASSEMBLED PROPERLY...............see the link above with other concerns that they will not have sufficient GREASE when you get them.....you'll have to GREASE the BB bearings and likely the headset (headtube/front fork/handlebar stem) bearings. These bicycles weigh about 35 to 36 pounds and are decent inexpensive basic bicycles that will serve the rider very well for many years if no major defects and properly assembled, adjusted and greased. The rear derailleur shifts nicely but unlike ancient rear derailleurs, is lightweight, and has no bashguard and is much more fragile and subject to breakage/problems if the bike is dropped, knocked over, or otherwise abused. Treat it properly and it should function very nicely for many years. Excellent value at approx $185 total cost or less for someone seeking a basic bicycle.
