His is really not for beginners because of the shifting of gears. learning how to use the friction shift is difficult while trying to learn your balance. The rear inner tube got a hole in it by the valve stem, so I had to buy another one myself. It was a defective tube and not are fault. Had to readjust the rear brakes as they were rumbling on the inside pad. The biggest problem was the front brakes, the rotor was rubbing against the caliper, so it was metal to metal. If you see in the picture I had to put a washer between the caliper to stop it from rubbing against the rotor. Then had to adjust the front brakes again. Its a nice bike but you will have small problems with it. If you cant fix it you better find a bike shop close by.
Nice but some problems
