Royce Union 700c Hybrid Comfort Commuter Bike w/Lightweight Aluminum Frame

This is probably the best bike in the world at this price range. It is a beautiful bike. I could not find one flaw anywhere. If you think you're mechanically inclined (I work on my own vehicles), trust me—if you haven't set up a modern bike before, save yourself the time and take it to a pro to set it up for you, because the instructions aren't the best, which is the only con I can mention. This was a birthday present for my 14 year old son, and after consideration, I took the bike to the local bike pro. He was blown away by the quality of it, too, and wow...what a smooth and comfortable ride it is. The Royce Union 700c is proof that some companies still make quality products at a reasonable price. The negative reviews about this bike are either from a few who were either unlucky , or they're reviews from a competitor. If you're considering this bike, you will NOT regret purchasing it.

OK basic hybrid bike-nothing special. Got it for $200 because of a few scratches on the frame so good deal....regular price was about $700 but these sell in the USA for about 250-300 (USD) so.... caveat emptor!

I love the style. Full disclosure. I’m so excited I haven’t taken it for a spin yet but rather easy assembly. All parts were there. Bike arrived super wrapped and protected. I’ll write another review once I take it for a ride. This was my mistake, but I believe I’m a little short for the bike I ordered. And it’s definitely not light weight by any means. But I doubt that’s a problem. The wheels are not inflated but I’ll take care of that tomorrow. Follow up with that. So excited I can’t believe it’s here. I forgot to actually post this ! That’s even better because I’ve have been so in love with this bike. The only thing I have to check out is I have some rust on a few spots. No reason for that because it’s been completely kept inside after any riding. I had a chance to ride today. Weather issues. Rode great, I need double knee replacements and this was gentle on my knees with a smooth ride. Here were great to have and the set was sealift adjustable. I’m in love.

The reason I chose this bike was because I was looking for a walk through bike that was easy to get on to. Overall I am happy with the bike. The instructions were extremely confusing so thankfully my husband was able to put it together without reading them. A few things we came across that were concerning until we worked it out. Like previous reviews when I first rode the bike my foot constantly hit the front tire when turning. We realized when he installed the handle bars they were backwards. When he flipped it around it fixed that problem. The other issue was the breaks it took a lot of adjustments to stop them from rubbing on one side. If I didn't have him to fix it I would have taken it to a bike shop to adjust. The back reflectors that they sent do not fit, but the front one is fine. Overall I am happy with the bike. However I would suggest getting someone who is familiar with bike mechanics to help set it up because the instructions are not helpful at all.

Disappointed because the seat tilts so back it is not very adjustable so it make the crotch hurt a lot. It also doesn’t come with kick stand but it’s not hard to buy and install. I tried to change the seat but a lot of the bars on the seat doesn’t fit in this bike. Sad I had to return it
