Around the Block

Purchased this bike as a gift for Mothers Day and she loves it. I'm always skeptical when buying something online for this price without seeing the product in person first, but I'm definitely not disappointed with this product from SIXTHREEZERO. It was shipped in one box and easy to put together. The Assembly guide was a nice book with detailed instructions that were easy to understand and colored pictures to help. I should have taken a picture of how the bike was packaged in the box, but for the most part it was pre-assembled and well protected with packing to protect it during transit. The only assembly needed was to install the front wheel, handle bar, foot pegs, seat and cargo rack. It came with all the tools needed, but I ended up using my own since they were more convenient and durable. The multi-use wrench that is provided will work if you don't have your own, but when I wanted to really tighten down on a connection it was a little awkward to use. I was able to do the assembly by myself and just needed a little assistance from my wife when making the adjustment of the seat and handlebar height to her liking. The whole assembly took less than an hour. Once assembled my wife loved the ride and comfort of the seat. The handle bars are wide and spread apart perfectly to allow control and stearing of the bike. The seat has springs under it to absorb the shock from bumps on the road which is nice. I'm somewhat jealous and considering replacing my mountain bike with the mens version of this bike. If you're on the fence about purchasing, don't be. You won't regret it.

I love my new bike! I love everything about it! The first thought I had when I rode it was- this is the smoothest ride I have ever been on, it rides like butter- if that could be a thing. I bought the coral bike through Amazon, it was delivered a day early. The coral color is just gorgeous, so fun. My husband, who is very handy, put it together with his own tools in less then 20 minutes, he says 10 minutes. It came super well wrapped up and protected. The two most important things I was looking for were a comfortable seat and if I could ride up the small hills by my house. Boom and boom! The seat is super comfortable, no more uncomfortable seats that torture your bottom. I was able to easily ride up the hills around the area. I bought the 7 speed bike, which fit my needs perfectly. I feel like a 10 year old again even though I am 46. I haven’t really “worked out” in a long time, and am carrying a few extra pounds at the moment. This bike is awesome for anyone, any age, athletic or not. I bought this to keep up with my kids and explore with them. My teenage son tried it out too, and loved it, as did my husband. I am thinking we have a few more Sixthreezero purchases in our future. Thanks for making such a well made, easy to ride, ENJOYABLE and beautiful bike. It has already brought me such joy!

Assembly is pretty easy though the brakes are trickier. Main complaint is that the instruction book is not for quite the same model of the bike, it shows a front reflector that is totally different for example. Thankfully the things that are different are fairly easy to figure out. I don't love the seat. It's wide and looks like it should be comfy, but it isn't and I still get sore after weeks of riding it. I wish it was more flat with less of an angle on the front part. I'll probably have to buy a different seat. The bike rides smooth once brakes are adjusted and the gear shifts well out of the box. I like being able to ride more upright

This bike was a surprise gift from my husband. He had no issues putting it together which only took about 45 minutes at the most. This is the perfect bike for me. The seat is comfy and the "old fashioned" coaster brakes are awesome. He even picked the prettiest color - seafoam green. I will enjoy cruising alongside the bay and the river with this beautiful bike.

I originally had a SUN "comfort" bike and after 7 years I wanted a new one. Bikes are just unavailable and so I bought the sixthreezero, because it was both available and nicely priced. It came half assembled and it was easy to finish the assembly. If you buy this on Amazon you can still go to the sixthreezero website and get the extended warranty, but it will cost you $20 more, than if you bought the bike at the sixthreezero website directly. I will say that the Amazon seller was excellent and the bike arrived in excellent condition in a short period of time. The bike feels solid and the materials are of sturdy quality. It rides beautifully and the coral color is very attractive. Here is the only problem. My SUN bike has a post running down from the seat to the frame and the pedals are attached 6 inches "ahead" of where the seat post attaches to the frame (the definition of a comfort or cruiser bike); however, this sixthreezero bike and others like it are made differently...as the seat post goes down at a slant BUT the pedals attach right below it...changes the way it feels to pedal the bike. Although, this bike is very nice, it does not ride the same as my old bike. I only mention this in case you are replacing your old style comfort/cruiser bike with a new type...they are different. I am 5'6" tall and with the lower center bar, I can stand over the bar (with the 26" wheels). I wish I could have gotten the easy entry bike with the center bar going way down, though. At my height the 26" wheels make mounting the bike difficult (especially without the easy entry center bar). I have to hold the bike at a severe slant and throw my leg over. The online sixthreezero company tries to be a social group communnity of bikers...is kinda fun.

I got this bike for my daughter because she loves the style, with cruiser handlebars and 7 gears. For most of you who order this bike, you will probably give it a 4 or 5-star review because assuming they give you the right bike with the right pieces, it is fairly easy to assemble, looks nice and works pretty well. I will say after having the bike a while I notice that the bike seat and handlebars will get loose and you really need to tighten the heck out of them and will still loosen over time. The bad- I got the bike, and the delivery only took 3 days, amazing! I started constructing the bike and when I was putting on the front wheel something did not seem right the brakes were not aligning right. After further inspection I noticed that the wheel I was given was not the right size, the bike I ordered had 26” wheels and the front wheel I got was 24”. So I call SixThreeZero to inform them of the error. They tell me they can get me a new wheel and should have it in a month,…. a month. I had got this for my daughters 14th birthday and a month was going to eat 1/3 of the summer she could be enjoying biking. After thinking a bit I was like wait I can order a whole new bike and get it in 3 days. So I say “How about I return this bike and just order a new one. I see it on Amazon and I can get it in 3 days” After customer service did some checking with their parts people, “you know what we can get you the new wheel next week.” I thought ok this is not great but probably easier than trying to return this bike, plus I already have it all built it, just need the front wheel. So I said “ok”. They emailed me that an order was made and I was able to check the order online. Upon checking the order a couple days later to see where my wheel was I noticed they did not enter my address correctly with transposed numbers in my street number (*sigh) so call them to have it corrected. They can correct it but because it was already out it will be delayed a couple days. Ok… I concede a couple more days. So after 7 days I do get a package. “Hooray!” it is my new wheel. I open the package and indeed it is the right size wheel “rim”, but what about the rest of it…? I mean did they think I just needed the rim and not the tube and tire? Ok maybe I could have been more clear but shouldn’t the people work there know how their bikes are shipped out, you know with the like the whole rim with tube and tire on the rim and even partially inflated I might add?? Ok time for another phone call. “Hello- yes I got the rim/ hub of the wheel, but I did not get the tube or tire of the wheel. To be clear I need the whole wheel, this time also noting it needs to be in the same style as the back tire on my bike as I don’t want them to be mismatched.” To be fair I have talked to customer service (now several times) there and they have been polite enough, but I am starting to get frustrated. So another order in , I wait a couple of days and see my order is still not out for delivery, after several online chats and phone calls asking why my order is not out, (also each time they say “oh we show the wheel delivered”,,” “no that was the other incomplete wheel, you will see there is another order right..” At some point they let me know it will go out in a couple of days, and I was like “You have got to be kidding me I ordered this bike two and a half weeks ago and still do not have a full bike, .. plus some further frustrated language nothing crude” Was able to get a call back and yes they would ship it out that day, you know just several days after they told me they were shipping it before. A couple of days go by , and this time got the whole wheel, it fit and everything and my daughter was able to enjoy her new bike. As a bonus I still have a 24” wheel and 26” rim in my garage so if they mess up your order and you need a 24” wheel probably faster to just reach out to me, lol.

Okay, overall, the bike is amazing, no issues with the paint job and all the parts were in tact. The only issue I had was with the assembly as the axel nuts for the front tire were missing and I had to pick up some new ones at the bike shop. The multi tool that comes with it is fine in a pinch, but it’s tedious and awkward to maneuver in tight spaces. Full disclosure, I had the bike built by a bike shop because it was a little frustrating for me. After they built and set it up for me, I was happy with the sturdiness! It’s tight and solid! I rode it home from the bike shop and it rides so easy! The performance is what you’d expect from a high end bike! The brake system is great, I had no issues with it and felt safe when coming to sudden stops. Living in Los Angeles calls for a bike that goes from paved roads and bike paths to dirt roads and grass fields, so this beach cruiser models versatility! Overall, if you’re looking for a new bike and don’t know where to start, this definitely deserves a look over!

Love my "Around the Block Women's Beach Cruiser." I'm 5ft 1 in and the 24 inch bike is perfect. I wanted a 1 speed with pedal brakes and am very happy with my purchase. It was easy to put together. The mint green color is so pretty. I am extremely satisfied with this company, Sixthreezero.

Hermosa bicicleta para andar por la ciudad. Vino en caja cerrada y fue facil de armar (segun mi marido ja ja). Viene con todas las herramientas y accesorios necesarios para ensamblarla. El color coral es precioso! Muy feliz con la compra! Hiper recomendable!

estaba muy felice ue mi bici se arriva sin problemas y muy rapidamente. El color de verde es especial. Me gusta mucho.

The bike was delivered really quickly which was amazing. The brands website doesn't ship outside the US so amazon was handy for that. The color is very similar to the picture but i would have called it 'butter' instead of 'cream'. Its really pretty and an original pale yellow. It took 20 minutes for someone with experience to put together. He said I could have done it myself because the instructions were clear. Riding it is such a treat! Its very solid and I felt balanced and comfortable. I am not very experienced on a bike and new to gears, so I did a bit of research on how to use them. Its easy to switch and very easy to ride. I'm in love. I barely rode my last one because it was really tough to pedal but this one is a breeze. Highly recommend. I got a rear basket to keep all my goodies and I'm ready to go!! The ONLY thing that I would change about the bike is the centre bar is high. I wish I would have gotten a step through version but it was more expensive. I have really short legs but I know I will eventually get used to tipping it to get on. Still in love but that tiny change would have made it 11/10. My NEXT sixthreezero bike will be step through :)

El color no es coral es naranja

Wonderful bike! The best bicycle I have ever owned in my lifetime. This is the only place I will buy all my future bicycles and would highly recommend this company to all my family and friends.
