sixthreezero Around The Block Men's Beach Cruiser Bike, Hybrid Bicycle with Rear Rack, Multiple Speed and Color Options

My wife and I purchased two sixthreezero bikes after years wanting a couple fun cruisers to use. We chose this "Around the Block Men's Cruiser Bike with Rear Rack" for me and I couldn't be happier! I was hesitant to purchase a bike online, for fear of what it would look like after transport or to assemble, but was happy to find it in great shape, packed safely and with good instructions upon arrival. While we were able to assemble it properly, we had our local bike shop do a full review post-assembly to make sure everything was ride-ready. As a life-long mountain biker, the seating position took me a few minutes to get used to. However, I can say that the riding position is great now that I'm familiar with it. (No back aches, tight shoulders or tired forearms as you'd experience frequently on a mountain bike.) This is a delightful bike to enjoy with my wife on our bike rides, whether short or long. Very comfortable, eye-catching and fun!

I feel the sixthreezero Around The Block Men's 7-Speed meets all my expectations. After being at home working for over a year, not wanting to return too quickly to the gym, and instead choosing to walk the neighborhood for exercise, I was done! My wife suggested I purchase a bike. I have had all sorts of bikes over the years - racers, mountain bikes, low cost/low quality bikes from box-stores, and expensive high maintenance bikes from specialty bike stores. I just needed a good quality reliable bike where I wouldn't be hunched over the handle bars, that would be easy to ride, had enough gears to provide a reasonable workout, and could be versatile. The sixthreezero Around The Block Men's 7-Speed has actually made me feel liberated. I'm riding it regularly around the neighborhood, and on weekends along local bikeways. I even took it for a spin on the beach on the hard sand. 4 stars for easy to assemble - the guide is for a bike that doesn't come semi-preassembled, which mine did. I started with the guide to be "safe", but quickly resorted to common sense assembly. Three stars for comfort - the seat was not easy on my derriere, until a placed a removable cushioned seat cover over it - a cheap and easy fix. 5 stars for packaging. Amazon needs to take a page out of sixthreezero's packaging handbook.

[UPDATE - 10/2019] - This company stands by its product. I reached out to them with all the problems and got a very helpful customer service person who told me to go to a local bike shop and get it in working order. I did but then gasped that the bill came to almost 75% of what I paid for the bike to begin with. sixthreezero didn't blink....they sent me a check for the full amount. No idea why my bike had all these issues, but now it's a dream. Great looking, comfortable, perfectly true wheels, quiet brakes and shifts like a monster. Very satisfied. Only 4 stars because of all the hassles but I look forward to many years with this bike. INITIAL REVIEW: I can't tell you how many reviews I went through before purchasing this sixthreezero "Around the Block" cruiser. The bike is beautiful to look at and easily the most comfortable bike I've been on. The problem is.... the quality. Now maybe I'm just the unluckiest guy going......but when the box arrived and I assembled the bike (which was easy and straightforward) I couldn't understand why I couldn't get the front tire to stop hitting the brake pads and the chain to stop clicking on the derailer. I called the company and a nice guy took down all my information, apologized and shipped me out a new derailer and front tire free of charge. It arrived a week later and this time I took it in to a bike shop for assembly only to be told that, while the "new" tire was better, it still wasn't totally true and was made in such a way that it would probably never be totally true. They also showed me (see the video) how the rear wheel hub assembly was so poorly made that it wobbled up and down when the tire moved. The guy charged me nothing but said, "this is a really poor quality bike". I really wanted to love this bike because the look and feel of it are so nice...... but the clicking chain and the wobbly rear axle are too much. I had to call Amazon and get my refund. Like an idiot I threw away the original box!

Right out of box left hand brake was broken. Customer service was helpful and said they could ship a new brake and pay to have it installed. Sounded easy. Assembled bike and rode about a mile and gears started making noise. Something snapped and chain and small rear sprocket wrapped completely around rear spokes. Had to carry bike home. Sent pics to company and hot email they would gladly send any parts to fix. Ordered this bike for use for 3 months in fla. just don’t have time to run around looking for repair shops etc. to rebuild a bike. Sad because I researched this company and liked the look of this bike. Quality control lacking at least on this shipment.

Quick ship. Arrived in a couple days mainly assembled in the box. Had to install front tire, seat, and pedals. All very easy. Brakes requires a little adjusting due to rubbing however instruction manual has QR codes for videos on how to for every step. Very easy process and bike rides great for a neighborhood and park bike.

I have been loving this bike so far. I'm not a knowledgeable bicycler, so I read some reviews trying to find that sweet spot of quality, but not overpaying for a name or anything like that. I didn't want the cheapest thing that would break down over time. One of the reviews led me to this bike and I'm grateful for it. The bike looks great to me. The seat is very comfortable. I've rode on smaller seats in the not too distant past that were a literal pain in the ass. This one has been no problem. The company has a very great warranty what I can tell, which has given me even more confidence in the bike. Extremely happy with my purchase and would recommend. Pros. Easy Assmbly Looks Great Feels solid and quality Flawless operation after about 30 miles so far Good warranty Comfortable to ride Cons Haven't found one yet.

Sturdy, comfortable for the most part. Seat could be more padded but nice retro look. Bike rides nicely overall & is very solid. Only complaints are towards Amazon: they were unwilling to try to get the two replacement missing parts for the bike: front frame reflector assembly and neck/ handlebar hex nut cap. Wouldn’t do a partial credit nor willing to try to locate replacement parts from maker. The box had damage when arrived BUT was taped up w/ Amazon tape and they told me to contact UPS to file a claim saying they damaged it or shop the fully assembled bike back for a refund minus shipping. Wouldn’t be taped with Amazon tape! Warehouse would. This bike in this color is not available elsewhere & no longer made. Have to contact the bike maker and hope I can purchase replacement parts.

So it’s important to note, at this price point you’ll always just get an okay bike, and that’s fine. Putting it together is fairly easy. Though I’ll never understand why you don’t put to hand tighten the saddle before putting the saddle rod in, that way it can never slide in and you can fully tighten the saddle once the rod is secured. Basic. The manual itself is trash and doesn’t match the bike. It also literally fell apart in my hands. The tools are sufficient but the number of mismatching bolts/nuts was hilarious, like a drunk donkey packed it. The front handlebar was packed in such a way that installing it Would cause the brake lines to ride on the front wheel. I prefer not to have to do a super awkward and tight twirl to get the handlebars back in a normal position. There’s a lot that can be done better, but hey, you get your box from China and that’s what you get. Calling the support line to complain about the mismatching bolts/nuts was futile. They never answered. Tires don’t have a ring to hold the stem in place. I remember when I was a kid in high school we had those to prevent your stem from slipping. I dunno, must be a Dutch thing. Missed detail. Ride quality is okay. I’m 6’2” and can ride comfortably for about 13 miles a day, five days a week. The bike squeaks, the chain requires excessive lubrication, and the saddle is only so-so. If I had to summarize it in one sentence: pay $200 more for an Electra Townie. Just do it.

Excelente bicicleta, buen material y estética muy bonita. No es difícil de armar y es fácil de conducir. Llegó muy bien empaquetada, lo que genera mucha seguridad en su contenido.

Warning Sixthreezero will not honor warranty bought on Amazon Canada. Bike looked great. Difficulty adjusting brakes properly. First ride and the derailleur failed, breaking spokes and rendering it inoperable. Contacted sixthreezero and was told their bike bought on Amazon Canada they would not honor their warranty. Horrible customer service. Amazon was great and refunded. Be very cautious purchasing a sixthreezero bike. Do not recommend.
