Review on Ride In Style With The Huffy 24" Panama Jack Women'S Beach Cruiser Bike In Sky Blue by John Salleh

Revainrating 3 out of 5

You better have your own tools!

Buyers Be Ware: I happen to be handy, I have my own tools and know how to swap a tire onto a new rim and can put a bike together. The bike comes partially assembled. It comes with a universal tool (in standard measurement) the problem is; this bikes' assembly parts (nuts and bolts) are METRIC, not standard. The tool provided, even if they were in the correct sizes, would not be sufficient. Real tools required. NOTE TO FACTORY: The person on the assembly line that installed the rear wheel assembly should have their power tools confiscated. The rear axle bolt and nut were both cross threaded and over torqued to compensate for the cross threading. NOT SAFE and NOT acceptable for my (or anyone else's') 10 year old. The company customer service department for the seller was great! They immediately shipped out a new rear wheel assembly and fender flares (which were bent up, probably during shipping). With a little extra work or a bike shop near by you'll be good with this purchase. Prepare for an extra week for extra parts delivery. Then assemble properly and enjoy. She loves her new bike!

Pros
  • Lightweight aluminum frame makes it easier to pedal for speed and acceleration; frame is backed by our limited 10-year warranty (see owner's manual for details); rear coaster brake provides dependable control; just pedal back to stop
Cons
  • Higher maintenance cost
