Firmstrong Bruiser Man Beach Cruiser Bicycle, 26-Inch

I bought this bike for my husband and it is the first time a bike frame has been big enough for him. He loves it!
The flat black frame looks pretty sharp. Frame is steel. Welds look good.
This bike has great components, and nice light frame.
I like the large frame and equipped mine with bags and a basket on the front.
I'll start by saying that the bike looks very cool, and rides very nicely. I'm 6'3" and this bike fits me perfectly.

Firmstrong Chief Man Beach Cruiser Bicycle, 26-Inch

I give it five big ones because this bike handles well and I'm 275 lbs. larger frame than normal.
I mostly ride it to and from the beach and at 6'1" 215 Lbs. I appreciate the elongated frame.
The long frame is comfortable for me, a tall-ish guy (6' 2").
This bike is big and fits my 6'3" 300lb frame well. It also seems to be able to handle my weight with ease.
The bike is a perfect fit, handles nicely and accomplishes everything I bought it for.

What customers say about "Components"

Firmstrong Bruiser Man Beach Cruiser Bicycle, 26-Inch

The wheels were perfectly built. I was so happy with mine I bought my wife one, one week after I got mine.
The black wheels and tires make it more manly and tough looking. Its easy to assemble and a good price.
I feel comfortable on it and the wheels support my stature.
The bike is easy to ride with its big tires but is not fast. If you want a fast bike a beach cruiser is probably not what you should buy.
Very comfortable ride. Tire rubber feels very soft.

Firmstrong Chief Man Beach Cruiser Bicycle, 26-Inch

The seat is comfortable, the balloon tires bouncy and fun around town.
The handle bars are in the right position for long rides and the balloon tires give a nice soft ride.
Sort of refreshing to ride a single-speed, foot brake bike again after years on 27-speed, hand-brake bikes.
Great bike and the forward pedaling style makes for riding with ease uphill or against the wind.
Comfortable pedals and kick stand works well.

What customers say about "Features"

Firmstrong Bruiser Man Beach Cruiser Bicycle, 26-Inch

The wrapped grips are a nice detail, and the seat is cushy.
The seat is comfortable without upgrading. It's my favorite bike.
And the name bruiser does describe it - very sturdy and looks to be exceptionally well made, big comfortable seat, solid welds.
First off I love the look of this bike it rides great, seat is comfortable and it assembles easily.
This bike is beefy and has no problem handling a couple of saddle bag type baskets as well as a basket on the handlebars.

Firmstrong Chief Man Beach Cruiser Bicycle, 26-Inch

Assembly went smoothly, all I needed was my metric allen wrench set.
This bike with its forward peddling, stretched frame, adjustable handle bar stem, and simple design looked like it would do the job
The bike fits me pretty well with a high seat post position and it's very comfortable for short rides around the neighborhood.
The bike rides OK, seat is comfortable .... its OK for the price!
Since the handlebars lean forward and the seat is adjustable, I imagine almost anyone will be able to ride it without issue.
