Takara Nobu Fat 26" Bike, 17.25"/One Size, White/Blue

it looks and rides great, just be prepared that it is longer and heavier than even a steel beach cruiser (my last bike). I'm going to add a motor for hills. I had mine professionally put together and added a basket and back rack also a super thick chain because u locks are too small (that added 7.5 pounds) and I add a anti-theft alarm--they are cheap and loud and really work! This bike gets a lot of attention, and you need to protect from thievesI love my new bike

I'm soon to be 69 years old and am 6' and 250 lbs (heading towards 200 which is the reason for buying this fat bike). It is a solid performer and everywhere I go people yell "nice bike" as I go by. Everything works well and I'll be riding well into winter getting my legs in shape for skiing. I've got a short inseam of 31" . I had to deflate and reinflate the tires to achieve proper seating of the tire on the rim and the front tire is still a bit out of round but it's geared for low speed so perfect tuning is not needed for a comfortable ride

Purchasing this bike was the biggest mistake I’ve ever made. From the moment it arrived, I knew something was wrong—it was damaged, with faulty brakes and gears that simply don’t work. The bike is nothing like what’s advertised. It’s extremely heavy, making it a struggle to handle, and the shifting mechanism is unreliable and noisy. The ride is bumpy and far from smooth, which completely defeats the purpose of having a bike. To top it all off, the bike doesn’t fit properly, making it uncomfortable and impractical to use. I strongly recommend against buying this bike.

Had a great experience with this bike so far. Instructions are surprisingly clear and detailed. The parts are good enough quality for the price. What sells me is the v brakes that are pre-installed instead of the disc brakes. It's much easier and cheaper to maintain, tune, and replace. After riding this bike in 15cm of snow, I can attest that it is fully capable, and exactly what I wanted from a winter bike.

Pour le prix c'est un bon et un beau vélo pour s'initier aux plaisirs du vélo hivernales. Il est confortable et se contrôle bien grâce aux pneus de 4 pouces de large. Cependant, il n'est pas fait pour les sentiers extrêmes (assez lourd et 7 vitesses). Il faut prévoir plusieurs heures (3 pour moi) pour l'assemblage si vous n'êtes pas familier avec l'ajustement des vitesses et des freins. (conseiller de le faire ajuster dans un bike shop) Les freins manquent un peu de mordant. Malgré tout, le Takara Nobu reste un bonne option pour commencer la pratique de ce sport. Je suis très satisfait de ses performances. J'ai eu du plaisir toute l'hiver et même au printemps.
