Strengths: Big wheels mean longer distance with fewer pedals.
Gear ratio very good. Tough hills may require standing up, but who cares?
EVERYONE takes notice when you ride this and the fun factor is second to none.Weaknesses: Might be too big for some people. They did a great job of engineering it for regular size people, but it's a slightly different ride. I'm 6'2"Bottom Line: Bought on of the first ones from Coker Tire. Had it for well over 10 years now. Great bike, Well made for the price (equally as good as any Schwinn). Ride it everywhere around the beach area I live in and paint looks as good as when I bought it.
Favorite Ride: Monster Cruiser
Price Paid:
$699.00
Purchased At: Coker Tire
Similar Products Used: Regular sized bikes.
Bike Setup: As easy as any bike I've assembled,

Strengths: fun, makes me feel like a kid again.Weaknesses: I'd be nice if someone could build a bike like this with top notch components, but it'd be too expensive and marketability would be vertually non-existant.Bottom Line: I wanted a Coker Monster cruiser after I saw it for the first time. I found a display model at a Colo Spgs bike shop and they were happy to unload it. It had been at their shop long enough for the tires to show early dry rot. The only change I made was taking of the very short cranks and small chainring and replacing them with 180's and a bigger chainring. Then I could really get that Monster up and crusing. I live in the mountains of Colorado and usually ride in areas where there is a lot of elevation to be gained. If I lived anywhere near a beach, I'd still have my monster cruiser. Heck, If I had an extra garage, I'd still have it. Loads of fun. Loads of fun.

Strengths: Unique...nothing like it.Weaknesses: Cheap quality. Heavy.Bottom Line: Unique bike. 36" wheels. VERY heavy and poor quality overall though. Buy this one at a steep discount and for the novelty factor only. Had problems with the original hub I got and Coker was great about replacing it ASAP. Also both wheels I got were terribly out of true, but I was able to true them using a crescent wrench (oversized nipples). Great company to deal with, but I wish they'd have used a little better quality hubs and quality control on the bike.
Price Paid:
$350.00
Purchased At: Ebay via Coker
