27.5" Thruster Retrograde Adult Bicycle, Black

The bike came pretty quick and was packaged pretty good. The bike took 10 minutes to put together, but didn't come with tools to put it together.this bike is great for wheelies and tricks.

Instructions need to say “Pedal Wrench needed for assembly “

My son loves this bike! It's comfortable, light weight, and easy to ride.

Bikes perfect just doesn't look like it does in the picture handle bars are different and other little things are different but overall great bike

Bike is good just isn't what looks like in the picture but can't complain

I'm 54 years old and purchased the Thruster Retrograde as an emotional reaction to the BMX styling like the bikes of my younger days. One of my OG buddies saw it and wants one for himself. Overall, a good big BMX style cruiser bike. However, the bike I received was NOT like the pictures shown. Wheels, crank set, and chain ring were all different and more “economical” you could say. Personally, I think the rims are too narrow for the 3” wide tires. The drivetrain has a good Shimano derailleur which shifts nicely, and was adjusted well right out of the box, and is mounted on a derailleur hanger. Of the three pad set, the stem pad was missing and the pads themselves were pretty useless packaging material. I replaced the pads with pipe insulation and really admired the new look. The riding experience is pleasurable with the exception of the handle bar clamp. It doesn't seem to be strong enough to prevent the handle bars from slipping even on a small curb hop. So, if you purchase this model, you would probably want to add a few better components such as pedals, stem, and cranks. I got this bike on sale for $239, which was a bargain! However, full retail is $459, which I still think is a decent price. If you're an OG wanting to reminisce on the good ol days, get yourself a big BMX cruiser like the Thruster Retrograde.

Rims I Got Doesnt Match Rims In The Picture On The Site

I rated this product this way because there were multiple differences on the item I received from what's actually pictured online. I tried to find information on why this would occur but couldn't. If the item you purchased isn't going to match the pictures online then there should be information on why and the consumer should be made aware of this prior to purchasing.

Bike is nice. But came with completely different tires and rims than what is pictured. Disappointment

Fedex lost my package so could never try out the bike
