Great. Works great (for my short to medium length hair). Best I’ve tried in reshape after wearing headphones or hoodies.

Pretty good value as well, since a couple of jars of these can last a while.

I love playing with it. Bought for my niece. I blew plenty of time playing with Munchkin Mozart Magic Cube when it came in even though it was in the box still. Can’t wait till she opens it so I can get back to playing with it.

Will update after I see how she likes it.

Safety needs for bicycles. The red flashing and wheel lights are easily seen sure to catch the eye of drivers.

Recumbent Bike. I really have enjoyed my Stamina 15 0200 In Tone Folding Recumbent Bike. However there were some deep scratches on the back of the seat back made by UPS before delivery.

All in all, I am very satisfied with the performance.

Buy Hooks instead. Like others have experienced, the cords fall apart. A better solution is to buy two large hooks that screw into the ceiling studs, and hang the bike upside down by the rims. There are hooks that have rubber covers and do a better job than the Racor lift.

great pump. pumps 120psi quickly and easy. I hoped Topeak Road Morph G Bike Pump with Gauge would be short enough to fit in the back of my jersey pocket but it kept falling out. The mini morph might have fit but i liked the gauge on this one. But it mounts to the frame just fine, I just had to get rid of one of my water bottles.

Topeak Explorer Bike Rack . I recently purchased an entry-level Schwinn bike to ride to work and to run errands in the face of $4 a gallon gas. I bought this rack because I liked the idea of the bags that slide and lock into place. It took about half an hour to install this rack on my bike. My seat post was pre-tapped but at an odd angle, so I had to bend the silver brackets slightly. Once attached it is solid, I have been riding about ten miles a day for the past week with it and I harldy notice it is there. I have not tested the 55 pound weight limit yet but I bought one of the smaller bags with no panniers. This is a great everyday rack, especially for this novice.

Low Quality China Bike. The old saying “You Get What You Pay For” definitely applies here. This bike is low quality but you shouldn’t expect much these days when you pay $[...]. Good bikes are $[...]+ even for children. We put the bike together and found that both wheels were out of round. I had to true the wheels but even after that, the rims are still so low in quality that they weren’t very even. One other issue is that the caliper brakes are almost useless. I had to adjust them to the max just to get them close to the correct spot on the rim for them to work. The pads fall short of the metal part of the rim. The manufacturer should have saved the $[...] on the caliper brake and put Spider-Man 16-Inch Bike into better quality rims. It is ridable and my son loves Spiderman so we will keep it. Bear in mind that it will only be used for a year or two and you will be OK. If you are in the least bit worried about quality, go with a better brand at a bike store. I bought this bike at Target for $[...].

Nice Bike. Ordered and received this bike very promptly; however, like one of the other reviewers, the back tire inner tube has a hole and will not inflate… have to take Pacific Tuscon Girls Dual-Suspension Mountain Bike to a bike shop to fix. Aside from that, this is a nice bike.
