27.5" Thruster Retrograde Adult Bicycle, Silver/Red

Love this bike. Learning how to ride wheelies at age 40 but have rode bmx bikes my entire life. Smooth ride. Easy to assemble.

I was searching for a big bike with gears, but without queer handlebars and suspension forks, and the Thruster Retrograde checked all of the boxes! I ended up loving the wider tires as well. It has a single derailer, which is less parts to go wrong. The frame is lightweight aluminum and has a classic looptail design and padset. The cable routing is a nice touch, as are the disc brakes as well as having removeable crank arms. This made changing the gearing easy. I improved the gearing from 32T to 35T with a MCS chainring. The only other item that needs improving is the seat. I am 195lbs and the seat is just adequate. The bike is made by Kent and I have no complaints. It was packaged well and required assembly of the handlebars, front wheel, and pedals. The pedals were practically locked and required loosening the bearings, but overall the bike was delivered well. The derailer was set perfect and required no adjusting.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Satisfied with the appearance and look. It looks like with the pedals going into the crank arms could be tricky. I would have a bike mechanic to do it properly because the possibility of cross threading. Everything else was simple to assemble. Tires were low on air and dismount and remount tires with inner tube balloons 🎈 using Murphy Oil Soap to lubricate protect from the elements. Inner Tubes 🎈 are KENDA with a white line stripe that I like.

Excellent quality and price

Rides great

The bike is super super good if you awesome the wheelies that you can do in the bike they're amazing and the combos too. I recommend this bike for people around 5 foot four and 5 foot 10. It's just an amazing bike and I really loved it. good wheelies good texture on the pedals, good brakes is all good

I love that this bike comes with pads throughout the bike. It made me feel like I was a real BMX biker (even though I am far from it). I did wish there were some extra pads for the seat, it could've been a little more comfortable!

Nice bike. The front forks were off a bit so I had to modify so the front tire would bolt down evenly.

Many parts were different than the pictures provided. Wheels were not squared off style, cranks and front sprocket were a different style and color, brakes levers were silver not black. Also, rear derailleur is out of adjustment and jumps out of several gears, and right grip screw threads are stripped and grip will not tighten.

I dont know how they fell becuase i never had one before
