Title: Poor workmanship
Review: We bought this for my daughter for Christmas. The selling points were the lack of all the girly-girl cliche crap you see on most girl's bikes, and the fact it has a hand-brake, which she's already used to from her original push bike. We were out of town until just before Christmas, and this was a night-before assembly job. Thank all my lucky stars for friends who are serious cyclers and who know bikes, because this would have been a ruined Christmas morning. Both wheels were completely out of true and wobbled horribly, the chain-guard (cheap plastic) was uneven and being raked by the chain (from the factory, not part of the home install), and the brake mechanism is less than desirable. The worst is the wheels. We got them functional, but I won't feel good about them until we can get them trued up with a spoke tool. Until then, no longer rides. Don't buy this thing unless you know how to make it work at a fundamental level.
