Question 1

Does the bike come with broad tires (i.e. 32" girth as against the narrow tires common to road bikes whose girth varies from 18" to 23")? Is it easy to convert to a flat handle bar? I did see a few customer images of the same GMC Denali with flat handle bars. Were the conversions easy and affordable (considering the bi…

Accepted Answer

it does come with road tires 700cc skinny tires. broad tires may not fit  flat handle bars: if you have the funds and time I'm 100% sure the handle car can be changed like any other bike. my advice, do not look at the price, get something you like from the start

Question 2

hi i am 5"5 ft and weighting around 220lbs,i want to try road bike will this be good for me?.

Accepted Answer

I'm 5'5 female, about 190, and I have the medium frame (yellow/black). Technically this frame is too big for me, measuring from my foot to the apex of my inner thighs. The seat is adjusted as low as possible, also. I ride comfortably. Measure yourself from foot to inner thigh. When I got my bike, the box said the rider has to be a minimum of 33"--which I'm 32" with shoes on. It's a rather sturdy bicycle, and with the tires aired properly you'll feel like you're not even trying, so there's no worry about feeling like you're going to break it.

Question 3

I am a 5'5 woman. Is the small 19inch/48cm frame too small for me?

Question 4

Can you put tri handles on this bike?

Accepted Answer

Can you? Absolutely, most tri bars come with shims for use with smaller width handlebars. Should you? Hell no. If you're interested in using tri bars on a bike, then you're also interested in a bike that performs. This is a walmart bike. Simply put, spend more, and you'll end up with a great bike that will last forever if you take care of it. You can buy a Reid entry level bike for ~$500 and it'll be great.
