Sixthreezero EVRYjourney Men's Hybrid Cruiser Bike - Comfortable & Stylish for Commuting, Leisure Rides & Beach Cruising

Finished assembling the bike and took it for a short hop. So far, I am impressed with how pleasant it is to ride. I was looking for something I could use to commute, and didn't want to use the family mountain bike due to my height requiring a substantial forward lean which lead to neck strain while riding.With this bike, however, you sit upright with your feet slightly forward. This naturally means more air resistance, but also means it's far easier on your back and neck and makes for a far more scenic ride. Combine that with a wide saddle and handlebars and it feels like something you could ride for hours.Fair warning to any would-be buyers, though, it's not an easy build. The fenders are the worst culprit, as the support wires generally need some finagling to get aligned so the fender is centered and doesn't risk rubbing the wheel. Everything else on the bike seems pretty study, including the rack, though it takes a lot of time and energy to put it all on.You should be prepared with proper tools and some grease, though. On mine, the brake cables were too tight and the brake arms needed to be removed, greased, and then reinstalled with the springs one notch looser so that they moved smoothly. The included multi-tool and hex wrenches are acceptable, but not ideal, so having your own tools for tightening bolts and getting the thing adjusted is a good idea.All that being said, if you're willing to put in the elbow grease, the bike feels like a very solid product and now that the hard part is over, I'm quite happy with how things are looking. I'll update this if anything changes over the next few weeks as I take the thing out to run it through it's paces.UPDATE: It has now been a few weeks of commuting to work, and so far there have been no major problems. The 2 criticisms I have are that 1) the cables are run through the frame, which means they bounce around and clang over bumps, which isn't a problem as much as a nuisance, and 2) I developed creaky crank syndrome recently and had to pull, grease, and reinstall the arms. Yet another instance of poor attention to detail on the part of the manufacturer, but not a huge issue. If you're not one for DIY maintenance, though, it's mean you either cope with the creak, or make yet another visit to the bike shop to have them fix it.All that being said, the bike is still incredibly comfortable to ride. I've been able to consistently male the 5-mile ride to and from work almost every day with no sore butt or legs. Additionally, having the step-through frame makes it a cinch to mount and dismount even with bags on the rear. Since I work grocery, I usually bungee my lunch on top and have bought a pair of fold-out baskets to carry any groceries I need for the day, so I regularly have stuff strapped to the rear.So really I think I can comfortably stick with my original assessment of "takes some elbow grease, but ultimately a good buy"
