It is so very pretty and is easy to get used to. I am older and it has been a while since I rode a bike but this is a nice ride. Basket is very big in back in case you need to transport items. I did not assemble it so I could not tell you if it was hard but the gentleman who did said every part had to be put together. I have gotten lots of compliments. I recommend itI was so excited to get this adult tricycle. Love the color and the basket. Plan to ride it to the neighborhood pool with with pool stuff this summer. That’s the good. The not so good is the HORRIBLE instructions. It says it should take two hours to assemble. It took us two days! The chain DOES NOT go together as easily as the video shows it to. Some slightly bent pieces. It feels so flimsy when I ride it, I hope it doesn’t break down the whole time. The second day, my husband tried to put on the parking brake and the cable snapped! Now what!! Spend your money somewhere else. So sad about this purchase.I wish I had gotten a least a 3 gear bike but this being my first trike I didn't know. I thought I would just need more gears if I was going up and down hills which I am not. I am 79 and it takes a lot of effort on my part just to pump and ride. Live and learn. Otherwise it love the trike and the color.Bought this trike with hope to get outside more and it has helped. Instructions are a bit confusing. I did have to pay to have it assembled. Other than that I have had no problems with it. It glides like a dream.The bike is good. My son loves riding it. However the chain guard & accessories screw holes don’t line up and parts are not welded in the correct places so everything fits together..company definitely needs to work on that for such an expensive bike.Everything was great and pretty easy to assemble only thing is one of the pieces for the tire was crackedI was sent the wrong instructions to put the bike together. I bought ghe single speed and was sent the 7-speed instruction book... Talk about a pain in the butt to put together!!! Took a loooooong time and was not fun either...It was not easy to assemble. Back brake issues(difficulties adj back brakes). Plastic peddles not cool(slippery). I assembled this for a 95 year old woman who never had a bike. She is enjoying it.
