Review of Huffy So Sweet Bike
This bike is basically OK, but I pity anyone who might try to assemble it without the proper tools.
All nuts and bolts are metric. The tires were deflated. Worst I found was that the width of the front forks and the the width of the axle mounting points did not match. I had to spread the forks apart with brute force to get them to go around the inner nuts on the axle. The forks brackets were half a bolt too narrow. I could either leave the nuts on and spread the forks or remove the nuts and really have to tighten the forks together about 1/4". Print and diagrams on the instruction sheet were so small, they were basically useless. Had to use a magnifying glass.
I had all of the tools and a compressor, so aside from the front forks, assembly was not a problem.
Grandaughter is enjoying the bike. Only problem so far has been handlebars that are slightly loose. I have tightened them down. Hopefully, that will be enough.
Very Good Bike, Lousy Instructions
The good news is that the bike is about 85% assembled. You attach the pedals, handlebars, & seat. The bad news is the instructions are printed on something between rice paper and newsprint, in a super-faded color that once may have been black, in a font so small you may need a jeweler's loupe to read them. These instructions seem to have been meant for many different bikes, so you will learn how to attach the fenders (none on this bike) and four ways to attach the reflectors (only one applies here).
Once assembled, my daughter could ride this bike without a hitch, so for the money this is a great value, and I would recommend it to others. Super-fast shipping from Amazon, we ordered on Sunday night and the bike arrived on Tuesday.
nice quality bike for the price
I purchased this bike for my daughter's 7th birthday...of course, my husband isn't very sneaky and she discovered it and fell in love with it! This is the 1st bike, other than used, that we have purchased. It is nice and sturdy and very easy put together and for the great price. Hopefully she enjoys it for the next 4 years or so.
