Overview

A 27.5 inch full-suspension mountain bike with a 21-speed drivetrain, lockout front fork, and mechanical disc brakes. Ships unassembled and needs tuning before its first ride.

Reviewers repeatedly single out one weak point on this bike: the stock pedals, which several buyers describe as stripping, cracking or falling off within the first rides. The frame, suspension and disc brakes get more consistent praise, with one owner converting the bike into a mid-drive ebike after months of use. Given the mixed 3.5 rating, this reads as a bike where the frame and running gear outperform its cheapest components.

  • 27.5 inch (650b) wheels
  • 21-speed drivetrain
  • Lockout front fork
  • Adjustable rear suspension

Who it's for

Fits riders replacing an old department-store bike who want real front and rear suspension with mechanical disc brakes on a budget. Less suited to anyone who cannot tolerate swapping out pedals or doing their own gear and brake calibration after assembly.

What buyers say

From Amazon customer reviews.

Reviewers consistently praise the frame quality, full suspension feel and disc brakes for the price, with one buyer converting it to a mid-drive ebike. The recurring complaint is the stock pedals: multiple owners report threads stripping on installation or pedals breaking within the first rides, and one review also describes a snapped handlebar bolt.
