I’d advice against buying these kinds of bikes. The components are going to be trash and you really don’t want your brakes or gearing to fail when your personal safety could be affected.
I love buying cheap junk as much as the next guy, but anything that goes in between you and the ground you should not cheap out on. Do your research and make sure it’s a good product before buying.
And regardless of what it is, make sure you toughly inspect and test it at lower speeds before you bomb down a hill at 40mph.

It’s a very sketchy feeling bombing a hill and having the thought, “what would happen if I suffer mechanical problem right now?”
