I love this bike. It rides really smoothly. I went bike riding with my family and had my daughter in the wee ride bike carrier. I thought because it only had three speeds that I was going to get tired really fast. But it turns out that the ride wasn't bad at all. I love the colors. The pictures does no justice on how gorgeous this bike is. Everywhere we went I kept getting compliments. One thing I didn't know is that you can't pedal backwards like you could on a regular ten speed bike. When you pedal backwards it's actually the brakes. It took about one week for the bike to delivery and I assume putting the bike together wasn't so hard. I let my neighboor assemble it for me. I do know from all the bikes he assemble this did take the longest. Because of the fenders.

Love, love, love this bike! I bought the 3 speed automatic and find it so enjoyable to ride since I don't need to concentrate on changing gears. Also, I like the foot brakes - back to basics in the most modern way. (I just purchased the Nirve Fifty-three for hubby.)

I would give this bike 10 stars if I could. It is PERFECT! I love it. It is built like a tank. It is welded very well at all the connections. The metal is thick. The paint is beautiful. The decorations on the body and seat are awesome. The tire treads are flowers. They are wide so the balance is great. The seat is comfy and wide. Rides like a dream. I expect this bike to last me at least 20 years. I am very happy with this bike! Fun!
