Mountain-Bicycles High Timber

Got the 24" size for my 9 year old and won't need to buy another bike for awhile. This bike checked all the boxes we were looking for: great quality, disk brakes, small frame, light weight material that won't rust. Arrived when expected and was relatively easy to assemble with the directions. Very impressed.

I have been using the bike for over a month. I find it very reliable. I use it for road biking. I used to have a 24 speed 29” bike that gave me more speed and was more challenging. When I ordered this one, I was aware of the diminishing. However, this bike is challenging enough for me. When it arrived, it required some assembling but nothing major. From the beginning and over three weeks the disk rotors (front and back) were rubbing some against the break pad. I assumed that of let alone the accumulation of rubbing would fix the problem itself. This is important because the rubbing creates friction and it holds you back when going up hill. Easy fix. Read the instructions on how to adjust disk brakes and do it. You will figure out easily. I recommend this bike, especially to the bike enthusiast. Enjoy it.

El color coral no se aprecia bien en las fotografias del articulo, pero en persona, es casi fosforecente. El armado fue sencillo, tarde como unos 45 minutos. Lo mas complicado fue el manubrio, oues venia desalineado el eje y tuve que re alinearlo. La llanta delantera viene desensablada y fue facilisimo instalarla con su sistema de montaje y desmontaje rapido de la llanta. El asiento no tuvo mayor problema en su instalacion, tambien fue muy sencillo. Las llantas vienen sin aire, hay que ponerle entre 40-60 PSI. El resultado es una muy buena bicicleta con frenos de disco delanteros y traseros asi como 21 velocidades.

I needed to consult some you tube videos in order to make some small adjustments to the derailleur, but nothing more. Very nice and good bike. Light and solid. My son ( 12 y/o, 5'3'') loves it.

This is a great bike and we foresee many years of use. It's sturdy and the individual pieces seem of high quality. My son has had it a few months and it's been good so far. However, as other reviews mentioned, this bike arrives only partially-assembled. You need some bike know-how and special tools to finish putting the bike together. The back wheel is not on, you need to put that on and figure out the gear assembly. Gear assembly needs some finessing to synch and may need additional adjustment to prevent it from catching or slipping. The front wheel was backwards and needed to be removed and flipped in order for the brake tread to work properly and safely. Even if the front wheel hadn't been backwards, it would have still needed to be removed because the brake line was twisted through the frame and couldn't work. If you didn't flip the front wheel and correct the brake line, you would not be able to brake the bike. Basically, it's as if they showed the people handling the partial assembly a picture, but provided no instruction or training in how to put it together. The lack of instruction extends to the buyer as the ones in the box are very unclear. If you don't know how a bike is supposed to work or have the right tools, you will NOT be able to do this yourself. If you know bikes and have a socket wrench set, budget at least an hour to correct and complete the assembly; if you don't, budget at least $100 to have the local bike shop correct and complete the assembly.
