It was extremely easy to install, I had it installed in less then a couple of minutes. Fit perfectly too. I was happy with the new screws that came with it too, as the old ones were broken.

The tire is just as it says. It arrived as expected. I just wish that is was a little cheaper.

I just bought one of these Dimension model WE8689 rear mountain bike rims at a local bike shop. Seems to be of very good quality, is AMERICAN MADE, and has what is condsidered to be the strongest, best spokes in the business. Has a Shimano free hub, has a rubber boot covering one axle end and ... if you use those Bell brand dense rubber tube replacement rings (No Mor Flats) you're in for a VERY pleasant surprise because the tire mounted almost effortlessly using a pair of $4 standard plastic tire mount tools (I use Kenda Kross Plus Wire tires size 26 x 1.95)

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this rim for any mountain bike (I have a '96' Diamondback highly sought after and for good reason ... it's early year high end stuff)

I would use this rim on a newer bike as well. Buy with Confidence ...

Discount Sram 3.0 Comp Twister Mountain Bike Shifter Set

SRAM 3.0 Comp Mountain Bike Twist Shifter Set
Customer Ratings: 5 stars
Buy Now
Don't buy this shifter set and expect it to work if you have a Shimano rear derailleur beause it wont. It's designed for a Sram rear derailleur which has a different ratio than the Shimano unit.The front shifter will work fine with a Shimano front derailleur. It's the rear shifter that won't work. The proper shift set for Shimano derailleurs is Sram MRX Comp. I solved my problem by purchasing a MRX Comp rear shifter from the local bike store. Once the proper parts were installed, the shifters worked great.Much better then what I had on the bike originally.

i got these as replacements to my old grip shifters and good thing i did. installation was easy, specially because the cables came already attached to the shifters. it also came with rubber grips which made my bike look sort of newer again.

after a few adjustments to the derailleurs i was good to go. shifts are quick and I'm never in the wrong gear anymore.

Honest reviews on Sram 3.0 Comp Twister Mountain Bike Shifter Set

The Shifters are built sturdy and replaced my old worn out shifters in only a few min. Crisp, concise shifts every time now. These are being used daily on my Cycle Genius recumbent bike. I ride abt 10 miles a day and feel very confident with my new SRAM shifters. You can spend a lot more for shifters, but you won't get better results for the average rider.

I used these shifters to update the drivetrain on my bicycle and they work well. They seem durable. I have had some slight trouble adjusting the front derailleur to my satisfaction, but I'm hardly an experienced mechanic and I've gotten it worked out for the most part. Note that these are designed to work with a specific type of SRAM derailleur with a 1:1 shift ratio. Make sure you have the right drivetrain if you are going to order these.

...because it seemed to be hard to turn when I pulled it out of the box. But I can barely tell it's on the bike, even with the headlight and tail light at full power. Get the right set up and you can charge your phone with it as you ride, too. Very high quality hub.

Reviews of Fisher-Price Action Sounds Trike

Customer Ratings: 5 stars

My son has a few bikes already, but since I got it for him about a month ago, this is his first choice to ride. It seems well-made and it only took about a half hour to put together. It wasn't too hard and the directions were pretty clear. Normally, I would rather get the bike already put together, but one of the reviews said it wasn't too bad, and I'm glad I didn't let that deter me.

It isn't great for riding on any hilly areas. The tires are plastic and it's hard to pedal it going uphill without the pedals moving without engaging the wheels. But any park with a reasonably level surface is great and it doesn't take up too much room in the car. We let our son ride in the house and in the backyard patio area and I haven't noticed any damage to our laminate wood floors. (Hard to say since our floors have been through a lot with him, though.)

He loves to pretend he is riding a motorcycle and this bike makes pretty cool sounds. I'm totally immune to noise at this point, so it doesn't bother me, but there is an on-off switch for the sounds (and you can always take the batteries out.)

I'm really glad I got this bike even though we have two other tricycles and one 2 wheeler with training wheels. His friends love to come over and ride together, so it's worth it to get an extra bike or two. And the price was so reasonable, I didn't have to get it used. I would definitely recommend this bike.

I bought this for my son's second birthday, and he loves it. Unfortunately, at 3ft tall he is still too short to pedal, but he scoots around in it just the same. My other son is six, and since the seat is adjustable, he can ride around. Which is great, because he is showing my 2 yr old how to ride and push all the buttons. Since it's made of very sturdy plastic, it should last quite a while. The wheels are hard plastic as well, with no traction, so the kids tend to spin out quite a bit. There are a lot of different sound effects, and can be quite loud, but they love the motorcycle sounds. All and all the kids are happy, so I'm happy. Well worth the money.

Our Grandson just loves this pedal riding toy the best, because it has sounds & music. He loves to just turn on the music & dance. It is such a joy to watch him have so much fun!

this is not a top end wheel unless you consider the price which is fabulous for what you get. light wt aluminum. Need to be careful you get the right gear insert.

Good wheel. Pretty true, may need some fine adjustment. You will need rim tape and should probably consider removing the axle to check bearings and add more grease. These low end wheels almost never have enough grease. Get an inexpensive cone wrench and learn this very basic repair procedure.

Discount Hutchinson Fusion Comp Tire 700 x 23C Aramid Bead Black / Silver

Hutchinson Fusion Comp Tire 700 x 23C Aramid Bead Black / Silver
Customer Ratings: 3 stars

PRO: 127tpi makes these tires nice and supple so they handle and ride like a dream. If you haven't ridden on a high end tire before and can get a great price on these, you should definitely try them. I paid only about $20 a tire, so it was well worth it.

CON: Though they're rather resistant to puctures they have an outstanding ability to swallow whole bits of glass that you will have to dig out with your multitool. Putting this tire on your rear wheel will result in a tire riddled with small cuts. If you ride in places prone to sharp, tire puncturing road debris--like the entirety of New York City for instance--then don't buy these tires or at least don't put it on your rear wheel.

BOTTOM LINE: I went through several of these tires, which lasted only a few months each, before giving up on them. The problem is, while a piece of glass or other sharp debris wont usually pass through all the way to the tube for a straight up puncture, eventually something will put a gash in your tire that is so big that the tube bubbles out of it and bursts.

I should note however that stiffer tubes--like Bontrager--will not bubble out as easily, so if you're going to get these tires, make sure to pair them with pricey name brand tubes, not cheapo tubes such as Pyramid.

These are the first tires I've ever had to patch the actual tires instead of just the tubes.

Fortunately, Hutchinson offers the same great performance in a slightly heavier and tougher Kevlar tire--the Fusion Comp 2 Kevlar.
