Summary:
I like this bike. My wife and I wanted a beach cruiser type bike that we could use between mountain rides to cruise around town and the beach. I don't like riding my mountain bike on pleasure cruises as the geometry doesn't allow for comfortable upright viewing of the scenery. This bike fits in perfect with an upright seating arrangement, 24 speeds with smooth shifting, good looks, and overall good value. The front suspension smoothes out the bumps and curb drops and 24 gears helps to climb hills that I wouldn't even consider on my old single speed beach cruiser. This is a nice bike. is

Strengths:
Value. With front suspension, 24 gears, smooth shifting, and overall good looks this bike is priced right and a pleasure to cruise the beach on. Hills are no longer a problem as they were with my older single speed beach cruiser.

Weaknesses:
The seat looks like a sofa but doesn't feel like one. I found it uncomfortable on longer rides and will probably change it out for a gel-type seat. I also don't like the plastic peddles. I guess they are OK if you ride bare foot a lot but I don't. The peddles will get changed too.
