Huffy 26in Women’s Trail Runner Bike

I bought a different color of this bicycle at the store although it was available online for about $10 less. The main reason I purchased at the store rather than home delivery was to avoid damage during transport. I suspect that when these are shipped en mass to the store that the similar boxes tend to protect each other. As other reviewers note, I have had problems with bent parts or rims when they are shipped directly to my home. I do enjoy bicycle building and repair. I saved some time with the assembly, though I did need to adjust the gears, brakes and seat for better performance. The rims were minimally out of true. I did not need to true them as I often do at this price point. I typically have little to no need to adjust these things when purchased from a quality bike shop. Talk about value. Rock solid steel frame with a shock that would be hard for my daughter to break. Alloy rims to avoid rust and be able to stop (previously steel rims dominated the less than $100 price point). Alloy rather than steel V brakes. Suspension fork. Cheap SRAM and shimano parts and a cushioned slightly uncomfortable seat round out this package. If my daughter rides it all the time, I’ll buy her a real bicycle. Meanwhile, this is a one size fits all killer deal to get my children off the couch and on 2 wheels.
