Review on Mountain bike (MTB) Author Stylo 16 (2020) blue/green 9" (requires final assembly) by Erzsbet Nagy ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not a bad buy, well worth the money.

The positive reviews are unambiguously screwed up. Found a replacement. The store has a separate respect - they took it back, with a partial refund, tk. was used. I was surprised to learn that bicycles without defects cannot be returned by law.

Pros
  • Regular bike. Rides, well assembled, strong. The child in the first race more or less caught the balance. Not pluses, but the usual expectations from an ordinary bike, but at least something: - Assembled firmly, does not rattle. Bolts and nuts are strong. - there are fender liner (splash protection). - the circuit is protected. Although, so that it would not rub and rattle terribly, I had to pull it hard - the sag falls just on the bottom bolt in the center of the lid, the technical design was clearly not thought out. - the wheels can be made half-flat - at least some, but softness.
Cons
  • You can consider buying if you want to save money. Medium in severity - 8 kg. There are also heavier ones - 10-11 kg, there are also lighter ones - 6+ kg. Cumbersome, requires refinement-adjustment-tightening of the cones of the rear hub, you will have to go to the service or buy a set of keys. The frame is too high for a child (deflection is insufficient), but not critical. Description has been overwritten. - 7.9 kg for a child is on the verge. The boy is probably normal, but I have a girl, although she is large, 3.5 years old, and active, but she fills up when she rolls nearby, the desire did not repulse, but there was no craving either - rather “I don’t want to”, but she agrees under persuasion. Well, this format is still felt as large for this age. Although he rides a balance bike, you won’t catch up, though the balance bike is very light (outgrown, unfortunately). Here I fell for the reviews "the easiest. " By the way, the description correctly says - 7.9 kg. This is a normal bike. I recommend that those who bought it remove everything that is possible - fender liner and front brake, at least for a start. - Assembly took a decent time + file. Packed really well and carefully. 1 evening for the first "curve" assembly, 2nd evening for disassembly-assembly of the rear hub (I had to remember the experience of the Soviet "Ukraine"). - Without adjustment, the rear wheel in free rotation made a QUARTER of a turn and stopped - without adjustment, nothing . In the absence of a tool, it was possible to adjust the cone only on one side. On the other hand, it was not possible to approach - you need a thin key and a key in the form of a fork with bends at the end, or some kind of round-nose pliers with thin tips. It began to rotate at least 5 revolutions before stopping. You definitely need to bring it to the bike shop, you won’t go out of the box. The rest is trifles. Could be improved, but solved: - the front brake (on a cable) requires adjustment, rubs against the front wheel. - no keys included. I had the usual hexagons and keys, but the rear sleeve cannot be disassembled without special keys. - there is no quick-release seat height adjustment.
