ECOSMO 26 Inch Folding Mountain Bike -21 speed SHIMANO gear system, Dual Suspension,Front Disc Brake, Quick Release Mechanism, Hi-Ten Steel Frame, All Terrain Folding Bicycle (26SF02BL)

It arrived as promised.It is folding bike(realy easy to do) so can be folded and kept in a small shed, garage. If you live in a bed sit or flat it won't take up much room. The local bus company say I can take it on their buses folded up. If you have a long walk from parking your car to your place of work you can use it for that to save time.It is well made and comes in a satin black finish. The welds are good. All I had to do is to attach the front wheel, handle bars and seat. I had to tighten the clamps a bit more than usual because the "pipe work" was slightly smaller diameter. The seat isn't too bad and should last an hour or more before "rear end fatigue" sets in.The tyres hold the air well and the tread is suitable for soft ground like bike trails. I didn't have to true the wheels up with a spoke spanner or adjust the bearings.The manual is ok and the tools (allen and plate spanner ) supplied will do the job.The suspension is a bit too soft and the frame is a bit wibberly wobberly when compared to a non folding frame. It seems to be a tad slower(speed wise) than a none folding framed bike.I'm five feet eleven medium build and it can be adjusted to fit me well.The brakes work well, (the front is cable operated disc) rear is V typeThe tranmission is slick and easy to use (all shimano)The only real irritation is that the rear V brake cable end and front derailleur cable ends stuck out and caught my leg as I peddled (fixed with some tape untill they can be sortened.)It is well worth the money, even though I am still running or peddling it in, I consider it to be a very good buy.

I've had the bike for 3 weeks nowFirst of all, the one good thing : delivery went well.All of the rest is my experience with this product, I am currently asking for a refund.I should mention that I used the bike daily to go to and from work, it took me about 45 minute per day and was only on the road in the city. Nothing that would normally put any stress on a bike.The handlebar started getting loose from the first day (the horizontal bar, with the grip move on its axis and get out of place) I first thought it was only needing some tightening but it kept doing it, no matter how much I was tightening the bolt. I removed the bolt and noticed the thread was ruined, so I assumed that was the issue and changed it, the new one did the same as soon as installed.A few days later the back mudguard broke, leaving me with no protection from the rain (my backpack took it all, as well as my back)After about a week and a half, the right pedal started to move weirdly I looked a bit closer at it only to see that the ball bearing was broken, the pedal was off axis which made it make sound and sometimes was not very stable.Keep in mind I needed it to go to work, so I kept using the bike. then I fell off the bike twice, and bruised my thigh quite badly, so I contacted the seller and asked for a refund.The seller offered to send me a new handlebar, a new pedal, and a new mudguard. Asked me to wait to receive it as it would solve my issues and I wouldn't need the refund afterward.it took more than a week during which I had to take the public transport to go to work (it cost £7 a day for me, plus it takes way longer)I received the parts today, the pedal is not the same as the original but it will probably solve the issue. The handlebar on the other hand is not a handlebar, it's only the quick release, which doesn't solve the problem at all.I asked for a refund again, I'll update my review after I get some other news

Had this bike for 18 months and it's been doing it's job but if you're considering getting this one, just be mindful:- Yes it is a folding bike but it is bigger and heavier than other folding bikes so you will need physical strength to carry it.- It is sturdy, I am over 16 stone yet I've done shopping trips with a fully laden backpack fine. The seat is stiff so you may want to replace that if you need to.- You may need to do adjustments on it, aligning wheels/brakes, calibrating gears. Wheels aren't Quick Release and I recommend having a socket kit to hand if you are messing with wheels as the nuts can be tight and a spanner can damage the metal. Learned this the hard way when I had a flat on the rear wheel.

Very pleased with the prompt delivery and easy set up of this bike. Not the sort bike you can hop on and off a bus with, its pretty heavy and bulky. Very robust build and great if you want to build up your fitness / lose weight. I've invested in a better seat to suit my aging bones, everything else seems fine - apart from one small problem. On riding there was a slight 'clunk' while pedalling due to a little play on the bottom bracket. On contacting the seller by phone I received a no quibble response to have it sorted at my local bike shop and they would reimburse the cost. The same day the adjustment was done for a cost of £15, the seller arranged reimbursement and amazon credited my account. Great after sales experience, and for the price a great bike.
