Look at the picture and look at the front fender. |
That's priceless. I guess you get what you pay for...
|
"Key Specs:
Bike Gender:Men's" Does he have a name? |
I wonder if they will post my review.
|
I have seen other dept. store bikes with the front fender on backwards too.
|
At least the fork wasn't backwards (which I have seen before...savages!).
|
It's supposed to be like that to remove road debris. :p
|
doesn't the back fender seem a little odd too? maybe thats the way it was designed, but it doesn't seem like it would protect the rider from gettin a water on his back.
|
The back fender is just for funsies.
|
Are you telling me I've been riding with a back wards fender for all of this time!!! Joking. I saw a wally world bike with the handlebars put on wrong, and one with the suspension forks on backwards.

Sports Authority-where quality is job #2.....sometimes #3.
|
I love that that is the MANUFACTUERER'S picture. That's the "nice" photo that is supposed to make you want to buy the bike...

Its an otherwise nifty looking bike though, i like the color scheme.

OK, wiseguys....
The fender is installed abominably, but not backwards -- the flare is SUPPOSED to be towards the back; it's the "bobbed" fender styling. Shouldn't be touching the tire up front, obviously, but we're talking about a bike that's WM quality (in other words, zero quality!). If you're 5'9", 165 lbs., average build/fitness/health, go for it...otherwise, point at it and shake your head in disdain. |

Enlarge the photo and look at the front fender again. It's the front, but you can't tell in the small photo.
I could tell, I was just asking ATAC49er what he was seeing. It really is pretty obvious. All websites selling that bike are using the same pic. I just wanted to show atac49er what was wrong but I thought he might have been referring to the rear fender. |
Better question is why on earth were you looking at this trashy bike in the first place.

Unfortunately, it's not a brakeless fixed gear. No wonder people worry about doing an endo if you use your front brake. They probably had a bike like this.
