these types of low quality bikes are often cited as representing "good value for the money". but, it's difficult to argue that something is a good value if it is actually worth less than you paid for it.

save your money and search for deals. this is an example of "value for money":

I have some vey limited experiance of the Dunlop bike. It was surprisingly good value, the frame seemed well made and my only real concern was the folding handle stem was clumsy making the fold bigger than it could have been. The muddyfox looks very similar, particularly the frame but it comes with mud guards where the dunlop did not.

I just got the bike and looks ok but I couldn't take a ride now,but I noticed that when the chain is on the big cog theres a little space from the derailleur pulley to the wheel about 8mm,is this normal?

handlebar height is not adjustable with that stem. you could replace the existing handlebars with a riser handlebar or maybe use a stem extender.

I'm guessing you'd unbolt the entire handlepost at the base in the same manner you'd remove a threadless stem:
