The following were the problems:
1. Bent fender - poor packaging
2. Sratches in paint in several areas
3. Three nuts were missing
4. The front wheel hub had lateral play - cannot be fixed
Planning to return cycle if amazon accepts it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good bike for the money, February 27, 2009

This review is from: Pacific Shorewood Men's Cruiser Bike (26-Inch Wheels) (Sports)

First, here are some stats:
The bike weighs 37 pounds
The seatpost height is 25 inches
The maximum (safe) pedal to seat height is 31.5 inches (which means if your inseam is 33" or taller, don't get this bike)

First things first--you SHOULD/NEED to get this bike professionally tuned/built when it arrives if you have NO experience working on bikes [.............]. I have worked in a bike shop for many years, so I know my way around a bike, and if you want this bike to work like a bike should, you need someone who knows what they're doing to tune/build it. (If you're wondering why I didn't get a bike at my old shop, it's because I moved across the country--don't work in a shop anymore).

Anyway, I have plenty of high-dollar bikes hanging in my garage, but I needed an upright ride because my back is going out on me. If you can tune/build/true your own bike or have a buddy who will do it for you, this is a great deal. Otherwise, you'll probably be better off going to your local bike shop and buying a bottom of the line brand name cruiser that has been properly built.

This bike was double-boxed and in pretty decent shape when it arrived with FedEx. There was a large paint gouge on the rear down-tube, but only superficial. The brake/derailleur cables were frayed because they didn't put cable fairings on the end. The wheels were rideable but out-of-true, and if you don't get them trued you will incur permanent damage and end up paying a whole lot more for new wheels.

All the bolts were there, except one for the rear fender (I just used a zip tie to secure it). It does not have holes in the downtubes to attach a rear rack, so you'll have to gerry-rig it. If I keep this bike, I'll throw a new rear derailleur on, but the one it came with will get you where you need to go. In my opinion this a great bike for the money. If you have a bike mechanic friend, buy him a six pack and you're set. If you are on your own, I'd suggest getting a cheap but well-put together bike at your local bike shop (NOT Target or Walmart--they don't have mechanics putting their bikes together).

My one BIG complaint about this bike is the size. I'm 6'1", and I figured it would be semi-small since it's one-size-fits-all, but it's actually quite a petite bike. I'm stretching the seat-tube past the recommended limit until I can buy a longer one. You don't want to pay [.............] for knee surgery to save [.............] on a bike, so if you're 5'11" or taller, find something cheap that comes in a large size.

Like I said, having worked in a shop, the frame and the parts are more or less on par with a low-end brand name cruiser bike, it's the labor that makes the price difference.

Color was green not the black I ordered.
It came scratched and wheels were out of "tru" like box had been dropped hard several times, brakes were out of adjustment and can not get adjsuted without paying at a bike shop.
Speed of arrival was fantastic.
