We will also confirm if the extra work can be completed straight away or if the bike needs to be booked back e.g. sometimes we need to ensure one of our trained mechanics is in place and / or order in the required parts. Some simple repairs are quick and kent bayside cruiser can sometimes be carried out on the spot (such as an innertube
replacement) whilst other repairs can require longer period with specialist tools to get perfect. Your Halfords colleague will give you an estimate timescale when you drop your bike off.
The 700c men’s Ridgeland single speed bike combines style, practicality and speed for a one-of-a-kind ride that is sure to excite Kent Bicycles enthusiasts. You can have both stunning looks and practical design in one sturdy package. This Ridgeland features a steel frame and fork with a steel rise stem and alloy rim. This combination creates a sleek-looking piece that is both durable and lightweight.
Other answers provide some good advice on adjusting the Kent to make it a bit better for you. If you want to pursue finding a different bike that is better suited to your needs, start by thinking about what features you want a bike to have first rather than what ‘type’ you want. These days not all bikes fit nicely into well defined types, so providing a list of features to bike store staff will give them a better idea of what to show you. If the bike shop that sold it to you will not take it back, they should make some adjustments for you (If not, put the cost down to experience and find a better bike bike shop). In hindsight I wish I had continued searching in other bike shops and gotten something like a touring bike, which I think would fit my needs a lot better than the Kent comfort bike. I know I didn’t spend a lot on it, but I’m a student and my budget is tight, so buying another bike is something I should consider very carefully.

If you want to research bikes online, try looking at ‘commuter’ or ‘city’ bikes – which will have flat bars, as well as hybrids, or entry level ‘endurance road’ for drop bar bikes. Looking at the picture of the bike a few thoughts- the rear spring/shock will be gobbling up power as you pedal. Tighten the preload as much as you can (or replace the ‘shock’ with a solid tube).
