Reviews
Below are some critical reviews about Hiland Aluminum Mountain Lock Out SuspensionBox arrived really beat up, broken open and the bike had minor damage as a result. The bike was delivered by UPS and the box was so bad I really should have refused shipment because there was no way to tell if everything was still inside.I crossed my finders and accepted shipment because bikes are super hard to buy right now withe everything going on with COVID and this is a Christmas present. Luckily everything was in the box but the crank arms are scratched down to the bare metal and the forks on the frame are scratched in a similar manner down to the bare metal. The rear derailer also looks bent outward slightly. All that being said I took it to a bike shop and paid $100 to have them assemble it just to make sure everything functioned properly and the technician said that the bike appeared to be functional but the first few rides will tell. I will touch up the areas that are scratched with paint and hope for the best. I'm going to go on a few rides with my daughter directly after she opens it on Christmas and hopefully as is well. This bike is a good bike for what it is which is basically a bike that mimics the kinds of components you'd find on a really expensive bike by using cheap parts instead. That makes this bike just a step above a really cheap bike. For example the bike has disc brakes, a front suspension that locks if desired, front shifters that look like Shimano finger shifters and a seat post that clamps the rails instead of a seat post that accepts a seat that sits on top of a standard post. Those are the types of components you'd find on an $800 dollar bike, time will tell how these cheap parts hold up.Overall I'm just really disappointed that it arrived damaged which is why it only got 3 stars. For more than $300 they need to find a better way to ship these bikes to consumers. Shipping took longer than usual for things that ship to me from where this was shipped and as soon as I saw how long it would take I knew they shipped it the cheapest possible way. Everytime I get a package from UPS which was shipped that slow the box always looks like if the loading dock was at the top of the Grand Canyon and the person on the loading dock tossed it to the truck driver who was waiting at the bottom of the canyon.Fingers crossed the bike lasts until my 10 year old is really ready to upgrade to a serious bike.
The delivery was flawless, the bike was properly packaged and without blemish. I have put together many bikes in my years and this one was no different in it's components. Attaching the front wheel to the front forks is where I ran into an issue. Normally the wheel hub with nest in the fork cups and be perfectly centered, well this one is not. I have the bike all together and it looks amazing but the front tire is at least a half inch from center and being perpendicular to the ground, this is a big no no. I have written to the company and am awaiting their response. I really would like to have the new part and not have to box this back up, but lets see what Hiland says.
UPDATE:Switched to three stars (from two) only because of excellent customer service. Seller refunded me entire cost of repairs from bike shop due to manufacturing defect/low part quality. Original review still otherwise applies for the bike itself.ORIGINAL REVIEW:Gave this to my daughter for her birthday, and it’s her favorite color and she loves riding it. But the handbrake just snapped in half during regular use, very disappointing. Buyer beware. Also, it was hard to assemble and I had to take it to a bike shop as the wheel was horribly out of true.
Below are some positive reviews about Hiland Aluminum Mountain Lock Out Suspension
Great bike. Instructions are hard to follow. I had to bend the disc breaks by hand to make it not rub against the break.
I ordered the bike even after reading the bad reviews related to almost no service and issues with parts. After spending an hour putting the bike together, one of the tires didn't want to hold the air. Sent an email indicating the issue. They responded in 24 hours and recommend to take to a bike shop. I already said the tire is not holding the air and there is a hissing noise. Instead of wasting my time, trying to get a fix a flat or bike tube. I ordered new tubes for the bicycle. Got them the next day and it took me another 10 minutes to replace the tubes. If you are ordering this bike, probably need some knowledge about bicycles. The bicycle is 60% assembled, all the tools came with it. I was able to finish assembling in about an hour. Need to buy a kickstand separate. Need to tune the bicycle, but otherwise, the bike is holding well. Good MTB for a beginner moving to medium-level riders.
I use the bike frequentl: seat is uncomfortable, so I bought a gel memory foam cover; I am 5'10' so I added a riser for the handlebars; I am no mechanic so I struggle with getting the gears correct, I am limited to the number of gears I can actually use, but it's okay for my recreational needs.
