Perfect for my vintage scoot and with the Michelin name you can't go wrong. Nice to go tubeless as well. Thanks

The tire comes in with a date code a year old. The tires are ok. But they dry rot in a year in the Florida sun and don't wear much better.

the scooter handles very well now, i ve leaned it pretty aggressively. this is only a couple of dollars more than the generic chinese brand. rated to 62mph... no brainer for me. in fact, just ordered another one for the rear even though it wasnt necessary, technically.

Arrived on time. needed an emergency replacement on my scooter so I ended up with these Michelin's. they seem to be good tires, they grip the road well and have pretty good thread on them. My only complain is that I'm a bit afraid to pull the brakes to hard since the will easily slide on the road like they did on me this morning. It may be because they're new to me..? I'll keep them and see how it goes. but over all a good tire.

This also was all part of a tire and tube change out. this tube fits and seems to work just fine.

When you blow a tube, here's your replacement. Just cough up enough loot to get it to your door, remove the wheel, dismount the tire and tube and install this one. Works good, last a long time. So far, 30 days sitting in my shed, holding air.

Mmmmm Good.

I had to replace practically every part of the rear hub on my grandson's bicycle due to a bent axle. These axle nuts are a great buy and worked perfectly! I recommend buying hard to find nuts and bolts from Amazon.com. I received these nuts when Amazon said I would.

The Hub Axle nut exactly what I thought. Right size and right product. If you are looking for a axle nut to put on your bike, or something. This should work. I used this for my 21 speed bike.

I purchased 2 of these bikes for my wife and I based on the price. I found "you get what you pay for". The first two arrived in good condition, after assembly my wife's bike wouldn't change gears and the twist grips became stripped and fell apart. The front brakes were difficult to get into and stay in adjustment. We returned it for replacement. In the meantime (about 2 days) my shifters went out of adjustment and wouldn't change gears, the twist gear changer for the front derailleur stopped working. I returned the second bike. By now my wife's second bike arrived, the box looked like it had been dropped from a tall building then dragged behind the delivery truck. The box was literally held together with shipping tape, and it was torn open to expose that the bikes neck was bent(I can't imagine the force needed to cause this steel to bend). If I had gotten to the door before UPS rang my bell and ran away I never would have accepted this package. I returned this bike also. Finally we decided to give up and just ask for a refund. Amazon couldn't have been more helpful, we received a refund in a very short time. Thanks Amazon for making a difficult and frustrating situation pleasant in the end. If you want a cheap bike and you have the skill and the time to do all your own adjustments daily then this is the bike for you, otherwise defiantly upgrade.This is not a good bike at a low price but a cheap bike at a cheap price. I hope the other buyers who gave this bike a good rating have better luck than I did.

This bike is so poorly made. The right pedal does not lock in place and falls off while you're riding, I crashed twice. Nothing tightens properly so the seat, handlebars are all loose. An unbelievably cheap piece of junk, do not buy this bike!

Very good frame, tires and wheels, ok handlebar and seat. EVERYTHING ELSE I junked!!!! Both derailleurs, brakes, shifters, crankset and brake levers not fit for a kid if safety is of any concern; even the top headset had to be redone. BUT JUST THE TIRES AND WHEELS where worth what I paid for this bike so no complaint. I replaced all the junk with the cheapest Shimano I could find and ended with one heck of a bike.

The purchase itself was smooth. The bike arrived on time, however the box was completely destroyed. It seems like the bike was dropped or as if it came out of the box while in transit. It gets better, it was missing the front tire. I am now waiting in my second bike to arrive. Let's see how that one goes...

I recently bought two of these bikes when they were only 49.00 on Amazon for my girls for Christmas! What a steal! My husband put both of the bikes together in about 20 minutes each with no problems. He rode them both to test them out and there was not a thing wrong with these bikes. No parts were missing and parts were not loose in the box. They were almost completely put together when they arrived in the box. Thank you Amazon for continueing to offer such great prices on quality products.

My bike(2007 Motobecane Nemesis) came with these tires on them. I had put 1,500 miles on them before I tried to ride a 10 mile stretch of a gravel trail with them at about 20 mph average and popped the bead on the rear tire. I bought this tire to replace the one I had damaged. For the price these worked very well for me in the past and I wanted to continue using this model. I have only put about 200 miles on the new tire but so far so good.

I do most of my riding in the bike lanes of Memphis Tn. Here, bike lanes are more the broken glass and nails than they are for bikes, so it is essential to have a good thick tire. These do the trick and still roll nicely.

I bought this scooter for my nephew for his 9th birthday last month and he has hardly been off it since. My sister tells me he rides it all over their neighborhood all the time, and she practically has to pry him off at the end of the night! With turning being so easy (he just has to lean), he's busy creating "tricks" and loves swerving around things. He recently told me it's his favorite gift he's received all year :) I would definitely recommend this for any adventuorous young guy!

Purchased the Nano scooter for my 8 year old, who does not usually ride a scooter and has never tried an electric scooter before. The first time on it, he was frustrated getting used to the carving turns, and a little intimidated by the speed. But by the end of the day, he was having fun on it. By the next day, he was getting the turning action. Although this is not his favorite toy, I think that's a reflection of his personality and not the product itself. It really works great once it's assembled. The reason I am giving it 3 stars is due to the difficulty in accessing the battery compartment. The hex key provided did not fit to access the battery compartment. The directions for accessing the battery compartment were not clear, and I almost broke the compartment trying to get into it. Otherwise it functions well and is true to it's description and age range.

What can I say? It's a great scooter with a killer design. My only problem is you have to lean it to the side in order to turn. My daughetr is 10 years old and this scooter is the perfect speed for her. Most of the kids in the neighborhood look's at her scooter with envy! Most of them have the razor scooter.The footboard is roomy and the scooter runs for hours not 45 minutes. I'm happy I decided on this scooter instead of the razor. Setup is also pretty easy.

Honest reviews on Currie E Zip Nano Electric Scooter

This thing rocks! Got it for my 7 year old for his birthday, he took to it very quickly and was doing tricks within 3 hours of riding it. It went over 5 miles on each of the four outings we have had. Even when it begins to start slowing down, you can stop and let the motor cool for a few minutes and it will return to full power for short burst so you can make it home to put it back on charge. My son loves this thing and I could not be happier as a dad!

What can I say, the three wheel innovation for electric scooters is truly great for a younger kid. I saw my daughters friend ride this thing over an uneven spot on the road and I was truly amazed and relieved that the scooter did not tip and the kid was not badly bruised (Right front wheel went over ground about 3 inches higher than the left wheel.)

Kick to start is nice and since the scooter does not need a lower gear I might later reduce the size of the rear cog wheel to give it more top speed. My daughter is already trying to kick while at full speed to get more speed. I guess they kept the top speed at 10mph to meet safety regulations.

It's an excellent product. I say 'get one.'

Review of Saris Unique Mount Triple Track Fork Mount Bike Racks for Truck

Saris Unique Mount Triple Track Fork Mount Bike Racks for Truck, Vans or Indoor Storage
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

I often carry my bikes in a pickup truck, and I did not want to bolt some fork mounts to the bed rails because I take my topper on and off often.

I purchased this bike mount thinking it would be stable in the back of a truck. I found that I have to put the heaviest bike in the middle so it doesn't tip over when I go around corners. Since the base is so light, your bikes will want to tip over unless you bolt the mount to the vehicle (I use it in multiple vehicles, so this is not an option).

I realized after using this mount several times that I could have bolted the fork mounts onto some plywood and ended up with similar results for a fraction of the price.

Make sure you purchase the mounts, as this item just includes the track. When you purchase the mounts, they do not come with the bolts to attach them to the track, and the track only comes with 3 sets of bolts. You will need to make a trip to the hardware store.

Overall, this product works, but is not worth the money.

I bought this for my Hyundai Elantra GT. With the seats down, and the Triple Track in the front of the cargo area, it'll hold two road bikes with just enough space to close the hatchback (hint: you have to take off the saddles to make this work).

Things I liked about the TT:

The rubber strips on the bottom do a good job of holding the TT in place on the carpeted floor of the Elantra.

The tracks allow you to pretty easily adjust the fork and wheel mounts on the fly so you can put the bikes closer together or farther apart. This allowed me to load more cargo next to the bikes for a long trip, but to space the bikes further apart for easier bike loading when I didn't need the space for other cargo.

The bikes are rock-solid stable in the back. I went on a trip with one bike in the back before I got the TT and it rattled around the whole time in a cringe-worthy manner. With the TT nothing rattles and nothing moves. I'm very fond of my bikes and I felt like I was treating them right with the TT.

Tip: Tighten everything well before you leave the driveway. That includes the mounts to the TT and the wheels and forks to the mounts. Your load will quickly become unstable if you don't do this right.

This is a very solid piece of equipment and exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend it if you have a similar need.
