Is the kawasaki kx26g for women a good beginner bike to road and trail ride?

Question

Yes this is a mountain bike and also i grew up on a kawasaki bike and never had problems withit but i haven't ridden a bike since i was 12.

Answer 1

As a rule of thumb, any bike made by a company that makes motorcycles or autos is going to be very low end.  It might be comparable to other more expensive bikes but in the long run it will be more expensive due to unreliability.

Answer 2

It's not a very good bike. If you will be using it for short neighborhood joy riding it'll do. It'll be OK on gravel/dirt roads but not usable on MTB trails.

BTW Kawasaki doesn't make bikes, they license their name for use on a bike that may be build by any company any given year. This goes for Jeep, Honda and all the other "name sticker" bikes.

Answer 3

it's a beginner bike, but not a good one. it's the type of bike that'll end up buried in your shed or garage within the next 12 mos. 5 years from now, it'll get uncovered, and sold for $5 when you have a yard sale. unfortunately, owners of these bikes rarely upgrade to a better bike, they just abbandon cycling. because of various failings on the bike, if you choose to repair/upgrade components, you end up paying more for your bargain from the toy shop than you would for a real bike from a bike shop!

Answer 4

If this is a motor bike, try posting in the motor bike area.
