Customer Reviews

Box shredded, takes a lot of work
This is my second Pacific bike ordered for my kids. Both times, the box is holey and shredded, and I am astounded there are no missing or bent parts. Here are the problems:
It takes a lot of skill to adjust the brakes and gears properly. The instruction book is thick and generic, not specific to this model. I am confident in my bike servicing skills, anybody who buys this should be.
The whole thing is carefully twist-tied together (no lost parts), but this time the adjacent parts rubbed off an area of paint on the frame-- no big deal, but not great.
The pedals were labelled improperly: 2 right pedals, but one had the appropriate reverse threads for the left pedal.
The other bike I bought 2 years ago has held up well.
So in sum, this is a good deal, but if you could get the same deal for $20 more assembled that would be worth it (but the assembly at a Toys R US might be shakey). A dedicated bike shop would cost more, but would do the best job.

Good value
My 7 year old son loves the bike. Postives: the 20" wheels are a good fit for him, the mountain bike style is much to be desired by my son, frame is solid, set up was 15 minutes, attractive colors, great price, chain guard so the kids pants to get ripped up in the gear. Negatives: hand brakes are a little difficult for my son to get a good grip on (he'll grow into it), gears are a little cheap. Gear 5 & 6 rub the chain against the tire. Good value when you look at what the bike has to offer vs. the price.

Not up to snuff
I bought 2 of these bikes for my twin boys. The shipping was great and they arrived unscathed, but one of the front frame nuts was missing...Off to the hardware store. My wife and I put the bikes together, but I had to adjust the brakes and the derailer on both bikes. After the boys rode the bikes on the first day, the chain kept getting stuck on 6th gear. I had to keep adjusting. Besides the components being of cheap quality, the frame and tires were fine.[...].
