    It's listed in the table underneath. By next season the colors will probably change anyways.

    Shipping weight is 46 lbs...doesn't sound like it will be very light. I bet its over 40 unboxed.

    The Konas ship in a box that weight about 3# with probably 2# of packing material. I bet you're right, and I wouldn't bank on this one to come packed as well.

    You'd understand if you know what I was talking about.

    The flex is for bump compliance.

    It just comes in an oversized walmart sack, so 46 lbs.

    Saw one at Toys R Us for $190. needless to say a very heavy piece of crap (with coaster brakes).

    I am seriously debating on buying a kids one for my son. If I could find useable tires for them I would for sure. Kids that small grow way too fast to spend big bucks on bikes especially when there isn't an offering yet for kids sized fatties. Hell its fitted about the same as a kids bike from any lbs just a ton heavier. But too I have no hate for WalMart bikes after my first one served me well for a year before I bought my trek.

    My daughter (10) wants one in the worst way. Tempting, but I'm holding off.

    Today she started asking what it's like riding on dirt and leaves and logs. Hoping I finally have a family member to ride with.

    I remember when Huffy was awesome and Mongoose was unattainable. Have we become jaded? I think so.
