Buy Dynacraft Girl's Magna Carolina Cruiser Bike (Green/Pink, 20-Inch)

Customer Ratings:

After looking and looking online, we bought this bike for our daughter's birthday. I was really excited about the huge discount. My husband is extremely good at putting things together, however, the instructions sent with the bike did not match the model we purchased. Pieces on the bike were bent, the Allen key was missing, and several nuts and bolts were loose in the box not sure what/where they go. To sum things up, absolutely not happy with this purchase would not recommend.

This was a present for my 6 year old who is very tall. The bike is sturdy, albeit a little heavy to my liking. Construction is nice as I would expect from a cruzer. I do have some complaints: first the seat and seat post are not my favorite. They have a tendency to twist and slip even after some serious tightening. Second: very minor but the decals are misplaced. It's like the machine or person just slapped them on and they are crooked (minor point in know but just lack attention to detail).

Overall, my daughter loves it. It was a great price but in the future I will have to consider a new seat to replace the inferior one that it comes with.

The bike came with several deep scratches in each part of the frame. There were long scratches in the green parts of both wheels and the white part as well. Also the seat was scuffed as if this bike had been used. It was supposed to be new and I checked before buying as this was a Christmas gift from Santa. It was hard to explain.

Honest reviews on Dynacraft Girl's Magna Carolina Cruiser Bike (Green/Pink, 20-Inch)

My 9-yr-old daughter received this for Christmas 2012. As of writing, 09/29/13, the bike has served her well and is still in good condition with almost daily use.

The bike isn't exactly a cruiser. While it does have cruiser handlebars, fenders and a comfort seat, it still has the look and feel of a BMX bike. It looks very awkward when she is riding it due to that. The handlebars actually make it pretty difficult to make a sharp turn because she loses reach with her forward grip. It would be a simple fix to switch to BMX handlebars, but she says she doesn't mind, so they'll stay on there.

I spend time every other weekend maintaining the family's bikes. This certainly helps to keep them riding safe. With proper maintenance it should easily last until it's time to move up to a 24" bike. Just don't spend too much on it. IMO it's a $65 bicycle.

Cheap Kolpin Polaris Ranger 400/Electric Full Tilting Windshield

I installed the Kolpin two-piece Lexan windsield on my Polaris 400 two weeks ago and have been very pleased with it. I purchased this unit specifically because the windshield was made of scratch-resistant Polycarbonate rather than soft Acrylic. The parts all seem very sturdy and the window fit perfectly after a little adjustment. The only negative was the poor instructions. Apparently Kolpin decided to save paper and cram what should have been six or more pages into three. The diagrams were so small they were almost unreadable, and it was impossible to determine the most basic but necessary things like top from bottom of the main windshield, left from right on the mounting brackets, and where exactly the foam sealing tape should go. I did a lot of head scratching, but figured it all out eventually. The installation took me about three hours total. Now that I know what I'm doing, I think it could be done in one hour. You will need help when installing the main window.

Some unique tools are required that your average handyman might not have on hand: 5/32" and 3/16" Allen-head sockets and a low-range torque wrench that will read down to 5 ft.-lbs. Those are not mandatory, but recommended. The engineered plastic clamps with the metal thread inserts which hold the unit onto the roll bar are supposed to be torqued to a maximum of 5 ft.-lbs. to avoid damaging them. The instructions do give an alternate torquing procedure if a torque wrench isn't available. One could just use regular Allen wrenches if one were careful.

After completing the installation and with the engine running, I noticed that the lower section of the windshield was vibrating badly against the glare shield. To fix that I applied a 2" bead of RTV between the bottom of the window chafe-guard and the top of the Polaris glare shield in the center, then waited 24 hours for it to cure. It looks like it's going to hold. Kolpin should have included that fix in the instructions.

Driving with the window completely closed causes some exhaust fumes to back-flow into the passenger compartment. I don't think it's dangerous, but you can smell the fumes. For that reason I've been driving with the windshield cracked open to the first notch. In that configuration, the wind flows up and over my head rather than blasting in my face so it's not a problem even in cooler weather.

All in all I'm very pleased with how the Kolpin unit looks and works. I'm definitely glad I decided on this particular unit.

Update: My wife discovered a better fix for the bottom section vibrating against the dashboard. She applied a 3" section of sticky-backed 1/2" foam weather stripping in the gap, and it works perfectly.

I put this on a Polaris 500 efi, fits well and meets product description. Exchanged first because bolts missing. Not a big deal unless the Polaris is 180 miles from the nearest hardware store. Amazon exchanged product which arrived within two days (remote location. I would have preferred to have had all six pages in English, pages five and six were in French. Overall love the product and highly recommend for Polaris Ranger owners. Similar windshield available from Polaris dealer for approximately $100 more.

Well made, good instl instructions. Plastic is quite hard, and remains scratch free so far. Note that this fits the 500EFI too. Only gripe: at certain engine speeds, motor vibration will make the windshield rattle against the cowl of the machine. (probably more Polaris' fault than Kolpin's)

Honest reviews on Kolpin Polaris Ranger 400/Electric Full Tilting Windshield

Every thing fit perfectly. It took about 45-60 minutes to install. I didn't waste a lot of time trying to understand the instructions. Just looked at the picture and figured it out.

Even though I made sure I had a perfect tight fit in all areas, there was an irritating vibration noise upon starting the engine. I did as another poster suggested and added an extra $3 rubber strip to the joint where the two pieces meet and used the left over strips to pad around the places where the windshield meets the cowling. Problem solved.

This model of windsheild is good quality and appears to be sturdy but was very disappointed due to fact the winsheild is described as having 3 positions of :1.closed 2. half and 3. full extension. The window does not open any further than perhaps a 8 inch crack. It does not open to even a half position. "Full extension" as the decsribes it leads you to believe it opens further than it does. If you are buying this for hunting or photographing purposes, you will have to remove the top window.Had I wanted to do this, I would have saved money and ordered a half window. Also the photo of windshield shows a smokey or light brown tint. There is no noticeable tint on the window. 2nd problem is the terrible installation instructions that they provide. Pictures of parts are too small to recogzize, the parts packages are not labeled and the diagrams are too small. Took 4 hours and 2 people to install. This by no means was an inexpensive item. I expected more satisfaction. Were shipping not a problem, I would have returned this and ordered another window.

Cheap Sunlite Bicycle Tube, 26 x 1-3/8 SCHRADER Valve

Customer Ratings:

A cheap tube that lasts alright, but has a tendency to get punctured easily. Its a relatively light innertube as well, so if you're looking for something light, this is a good choice, just make sure you have replacements if you're hitting the trail!

I bought two of these to replace the old tubes on a used bike I just purchsed. The first one I installed blew out while inflating it before it even reached recommended pressure. The second one made it two blocks before it also blew out. I then went to Wal-Mart and purchased a different brand middle of the road tube to confirm product defect and not a problem with the bike causing the blow outs. The Wal-Mart tube installed fine and has 20+ miles on it now with no problems. I wouldn't recommend these.

Buy Kenda Koncept Road Tire 700 x 23C Wire Black/Orange

Customer Ratings:

The tires came with my training bike. I mostly had vittoria and continental tires in the past 15 years but I left those on just to see, and I was very pleasantly surprised. No more flats than usual (about 1 every 1000 miles, which I think is an average amount) and excellent traction. I used them up after about 4000 miles filled with 110psi (and even used them for 2 races!!). These are certainly not as good as $70 tires but if you don't want to spend much, for less then $20 they are great.

I ride on fairly clean roads and in less than 300 miles I had 2 Kenda Koncept tires cut completely through the tread and become useless. I have never had any other tires fail this quickly. Stay away from these.

I bought an expensive bicycle on the Internet. It had very high quality powertrain components and a carbon frame. The bicycle was purchased on eBay from Bottechia USA. Unfortunately, in order to keep the cost of this assembled bicycle down the vendor used very low quality wheels and tires.

These Kenda Koncepts are heavy and BOTH have failed with less than 500 miles. In both cases the sidewall separated I'm very glad that I inspect my tires regularly as I don't like to think about the possibility of a blowout on a 40 mi./h descent. I'm a firm believer in "you get what you pay for". At $13 a pop shouldn't expect much however I had every right to expect a better quality tire on a bicycle costing $1800. Shame on you Kenda and Bottechia USA. Additionally, my local bike shop mechanic told me that it is impossible to true the Vuelta X RP Pro wheels. Stay away from them also. A wheel starts out as a strip of metal that is formed into a circle and joined. If there is a pronounced overlap at the join point you will have a "bump" and it can't be fixed.

There is a lesson here about buying a bicycle on the Internet consisting of very high quality powertrain components at a price that seems too good to be true. The components were primarily duraAce and work very well. In the background there are dirt cheap components in order to meet a price point. These Vuelta wheels and Kenda tires are gone now replaced with a very nice set of dura ace wheels and tubeless tires. It would have been nice not to have to spend over $500 in a wheel and tire upgrade.

Finally, my riding is all on the road and the roads that I ride are 95% good quality with a little shake and bake thrown in but nothing that should have caused both tires to fail in such a short period of time.

This is a pretty good chain tool. I found it easy to use, and it's one of the cheapest tools available. I do have a small problem with over-driving the pins, so that they fall out the other side, and I have no idea how to get them back in. If you're careful this shouldn't be a problem. I don't know if more expensive tools would have a solution for this.

Pros:

Portable, lightweight

Easy to use

Plastic holder keeps components together

Cons:

Allen key can fall out when tightening / removing links (compare with Park tool, which cannot).

Pin seems to have bent slightly after about a dozen uses (but I think replacement pins can be bought).

Overall I'd recommend, though I would compare with the Park Mini Chain Brute or Pedro's Chain tool first.

it's more user friendly than park tool, as it provides a chain hook as well as a 5/6mm hex wrench build in with the tool. Everything is nicely tucked onto the included rubber sleeve for storage. See my user photos for reference.

Not compatible with 11 speed. Made in Taiwan.

It's small and lightweight, and wouldn't take up too much space in your riding bag along with your other necessities. The little wire hook they include with the device is SUCH a great help when adding/removing a link, it's like one of those small blessings that you never would have thought of yourself. It was a lot smaller than I had anticipated, but it's a solid design and good product.
