Bear in mind that I just started using the bike so can NOT speak for the longevity of the machine yet. I was expecting a trike that had low enough gears to climb some hills and this was the only one I could find with more than a three speed hub. It looks great, rides easily due to the gears and its weight. Looks like a winner at a fair price.

I am a young person, not disabled in any way I just like the trike look and large rear basket, and I love this trike! It came about 85% assembled in a gigantic box. All I had to do was put the front wheel and fender on, get the brakes hooked up, put the seat and handlebars on and adjust them, and put on the rear basket. It was a cinch. This trike is not too big, its width allows it to fit through a regular sized doorway easily, and the basket is a pretty good size. It is around 55 pounds, so not too heavy. I have zero complaints so far.

Best Deals for Kent Bayside 24in 7 Speed Adult Tricycle

When I recieved this tricycle I was apprehensive since it is made in China and I was hoping for a U.S. or Canadian product. It claimed the arrival date would be within 7 days and since it took 3 weeks I knew where it was coming from, however it went together nicely and is a great ride. My biggest hurdles have been turning, (you need a much wider circle than a two wheel bike), and the elevation on the roadside for water drainage, an adjustment since you can't just lean into a correction as on a two wheel. The trike is sturdy, comfortable and pure pleasure to ride. The lumbar support and cushy seat are a plus and with 7 speeds, it is the best out there. You want more exercise without hurting feet and knees? This trike will take care of that. It is just plain fun!

Honest reviews on Kent Bayside 24in 7 Speed Adult Tricycle

Love my new adult tricycle. Most comfortable bike I have even ridden. Perfect for a day of bird watching. The rear basket is just right for safely carrying everything for a afternoon outing. Wonderful on grated dirt roads and paths. Great for those quick neighborhood trips. Easy assembly. The gears only needed some minor adjustments. Some instructions would have been helpful with the gearing, but not to hard to work out.

The ad is misleading, it says the bike comes with fenders (plural). It only comes with the single front fender. Kent does not make rear fenders for this model. Limited after market fenders for the bayside tire size. I contacted Kent's sales department and they were not interested in processing a special order. I was hoping to order fenders in matching green.

Be prepared... It took two weeks to ship and I was never able to confirm my order on line. Took three days to get a confirmation email. I finally had to call and request one be sent. Nor was I able to get the tracking process from unbeatablesale.com to function. There is a link to chat, but no one was available the multiple times I tried to contact unbeatablesale.com. no reply to repeated emails regarding my problems with their tracking system. unbeatablesale.com gets one star.

This is an excellent purchase/investment. The bike is very easy to ride. The ride is very smooth and quiet.

The basket is perfect for my little dog. We have tried to take her on bike rides in other baskets but she would try and jump out. The third wheel gives the bike excellent balance so the dog doesn't try and jump out.

The overall rating I gave was a 4 instead of a 5. The bike comes 95% assembled. The main thing we had to assemble was the front tire. I haven't been on a bike since I was a kid so I had trouble with the front tire and brake alignment. The directions could have been a little clearer on this point.

Overall, Excellent product and I expect years of enjoyment from this bike.
