Jeep 29er Comanche Mountain Bike (18.5 Inch, Satin Copper)

CUSTOMER REVIEW



The bike was easy to put together and the parts gave the feeling of good quality. It is incorrectly stated in the product info that the tires are 28 inches....they are in fact 29. The bike feels light for it's size. The handle bar is nice and big and has a cool tapered style. Nice grips. It sits high so no need for fooling around with a stem raiser. I'm 6 feet tall and 200 pounds.....finally feel like I have a bike that is the right size for me. Plenty of clearance between your feet and the front tire as you turn. The front shock is excellent and very smooth....the bike bounces over potholes nicely. I don't miss the rear shock. Love the lever shifters....the rear derailleur is heavy duty.....the gears feel much different than 26". I've been on 5 rides from about 5-10 miles....half city and half trails....where I used to cruise in 13th speed, I tend to do about 11th speed on this bike. I'm adjusting to using lower gears since gear for gear, it takes more torque with the 29" tires as compared to 26". The front disk brake is also heavy duty and works well and so does the back linear pull. The seat post is generous at about 12" but I still needed a longer one and a comfort seat...I could do without the jeep branding but who cares. The bike is made by Kent in case you didn't figure that out. I also added rear fender, water bottle holder and bar ends that I use to sit upright to take stress off my back. It's big and beautiful and excellent for the price! I love it!
