Just What We Needed!

Bought 4 of these bikes during a great sale. Fantastic value, solid components, stylish and everyone is enjoying them.

Bad Service, Never Received Bike

I’m sure the bike itself is great. I ordered the bike online and gave them a few days to assemble it. I called to see if my bike was ready, and they said it was not ready yet but would be either that night or the next day. I confirmed on the phone that I would receive a call when it was ready for pickup. I never received a call to say that the bike was ready for pickup and the order was cancelled automatically. I was not charged, I’m sure the bike is great, but I am not thrilled with the service I received.

Happy

I am happy with my bike purchase. Smooth ride and gears shift easily.

Entry Level Worth Upgrading

The Switchback Expert has better frame geometry compared to a Trek Marlin. Up grading the heavy coil spring fork is not a problem with the tapered head tube to a light weight air spring fork will shave 5 lbs. off the bike. The rear wheel hub is a 141mm qr .is a limiting factor. No through axel. You can up grade to a 11 speed on the stock rear wheel. a new rear wheel with a Shimano wh-mt500 hub with microsline free wheel will get you 12 speed. The bike is light and fast and fun to ride. Sale price of $550 is hard to beat.

So Far So Good

We have only taken the bike on one bike ride, but so far so good
