Spent all day trying to get this bike to work, eventually roping in my entire house full of engineers, all of whom own bikes. By the end, we simply had to give up and acknowledge that both sets of brakes arrived messed up.

Took an entire day and now I have to sink money into it. I expect a bike to arrive usable, but somehow I have to figure out how to even get this to a bike shop--maybe I'll just ride it there without brakes.

The whole experience has been frustrating, and I agree with the other reviews that state that this bike is truly problematic.

Hey, at least it looks super nice!
