I received this bike yesterday, it took about an hour to put it together. I agree with the previous comments about the instruction manual, it was very generic, covered several bikes but did not really address this bike well at all. Regardless, the bike was 90% assembled and I had no real problems putting it together. The front fender did have a dent, fortunately after I knocked it out it was under the front fork and not visible.If you are looking for an inexpensive bike for casual riding, I think you will be happy with this one.
