Arden Trail 26" Wheel Mens Adults Womens Small 16" Frame Mountain Bike 21 Speed Black/Red

Quite easy to put together. Took about an hour. Very sturdy bike. My 11 year old loves it.

It just came armed and robust, it is normal for all heavy objects to be heavy and robust, and in terms of cost, it is not bad either.

Bought for my son, for travelling to and from work. Never seen him so happy or fit.

Bought bike for the misses to join me on bike rides but atleast 20 metres out tge door she changed gear and the derailer snapped off usually shimano are a reliable company for parts but this didn't last a minute of use so I ordered a whole new derailer fitted it and so far so good maybe we was unlucky but a minute of usage that's pretty low standards .

So I am going to try and keep this short despite the large number of issues I've had with this bike in less than two weeks of it arriving. Also it has almost killed me three times, the last final straw was yesterday when I almost waiting flying into a wheel of a bus.Firstly it arrived in a very damaged box, however there didn't seem to be any visible marks on the bike. Putting it together was a nightmare (All the positive reviews on here saying it's easy are clearly lies put on by the distributer). You have to remove the front breaks to put the front tire in place and then remember the exact order the five different bolt have to go and the exact way they each face. Tires where flat, so I had to go and buy a pump before I could even use it. Also the seat is actually painful, I mean I was literally in pain, so had to buy a gel cover it. As for the gears, these are the cause of my near death experiences, they keep coming off, and not even while changing gears, just by peddling. The photo attached is from the third incident, but seventh time of the chains coming off (I've had this bike for less than two weeks). I was at red traffic light. Bus to right, light goes green, I begin to peddle then as my right foot goes down I hear a crack, the peddles locked, the bike pulled to the right and lucky I reacted in time and pushed my hand against the bus before I went into the tire.The chain had come of again and the plastic cover had also snapped off. One of the other incidents came because no matter how hard I tighten the handle bars, they just keep coming loose and on one occasion they came loose and sent me out into the middle of the road, to which I was lucky the car behind me managed to break. I have had with this bike and requested a refund, which I will update this review once that is over.I understand this is not an expensive bike, but it is not worth over £100, I bought it as I was wanting to try and cycle to work as I have been enjoying a healthy lifestyle this year. However today I just ran the 5 miles and it felt so much safer, than riding the bike this last week.

I did not Assemble the bike

Only had it 6 months brakes have gone and brake cables have gone tyres are poor tyres only lasted 2 weeks complete waste of money with time I’ve spent fixing it every day

Received this bike in good nick . Had a friend build it as I am totally not handy at these things.A nice looking and sturdy 21 gear bike and compared with similar bikes on the market sales at very competitive price.Rides great and would recommend.
