"Great bike, easy assembly, even for non-DIYer. Son loves bike!
Halfords service is nothing like that though! Halfords Aylesbury Broadfields don't seem to want to help customers. First I went without reservation, but knew 3 bikes in stock from website. Waited 30 minutes and no one helped, asked for help, guy busy, waited another HOUR then got told bike wasn't there. Couldn't order as it was gone 6pm by then! Went home, reserved bike online for collection next day. Reservation system said I would get text when bike ready, no text. Called, yes, bike ready. Got there, they never got the order! After 30 minutes of searching on system, they finally got a bike out of storage, first a wrong one, then the right one.

"I bought this for my daughter's 7th birthday. She didn't want anything bright pink or floral but really liked this blue colour. It still annoys me how everything has to be gender specific. This is a "kid's" mountain bike.
It was pretty easy to assemble though the handle bars take quite a bit of tightening. I also had a problem inflating the rear tyre. When I took the inner tube out it was split - looked like a manufacturing fault. However, the store gave me a new inner tube - no questions, so thanks for that.
Performance wise, it's quite heavy for a 7 year old, but after a couple of minutes practice she was off and away!"

"We bought this bike for my sons birthday after trying it out in store. The price is reasonable compared to others available. This will be his first bike with gears and I think its a great idea that the gears are changed by twisting the handle. Its not his birthday for a few more weeks but we know hes going to love it."

Pros: the price, the style
Cons: the twist gear change
"Purchased for my grandson's 7th birthday. It was the cheapest bike I could find, with suspension and 6 gears it's very good value. It is rather heavy and he struggles to change down the gears as the twist grip is hard to turn with his small hands.
But he loves it and I don't think You'd get anything better for the money. Hopefully it will last a couple of years until he needs something bigger.

Pros: a quality bike for a bargain price, simple assembly
Cons: saddle retaining bolt poor quality
"Purchased the boxed version to keep cost low. Excellent packaging meant there was no damage to any parts in the large box. All went together very easily during assembly with the exception of the saddle post bolt which stripped threads before retaining the saddle in position - guess it was made from the rare soft metal Cheesium! I replaced it with a quality bolt which did the job perfectly.
There were no other issues in putting together the bike which seems of excellent quality indeed.
Adjusted the brake block position and brake setup and tweaked the deraillure configuration and all was perfect.
My son thoroughly tested his new pride and joy with no issues, a very happy boy indeed!

"I bought this for my grandson's 7th Birthday. He is quite tall for his age and with a slight adjustment to the seat its perfect and can be adjusted as he gets taller. He loves his bike and is exactly what we would have expected from a bike for a child of his age. Excellent value for money and also came in a choice of colours"

"Bought after viewing many other mountain bikes. With full suspension, gears and protection for the chain (which is handy when bike is dropped on the floor as boys do!) this is a very good deal. Identical frame to similar more expensive bike, the only difference was the handles. Very pleased with purchase. With the 3 for 2 accessory offer I was able to add mudguards and a stand too."
