1. Schwinn High Timber Youth/Adult
Much like you’d expect from a Schwinn bike, High Timber combines the latest technology with exceptional construction quality. It comes in a massive variety of colours and sizes that range from 24 to 29” wheels.

2. Hiland 26 Inch Mountain Bike Aluminium
The dedicated mountain bike is significantly cheaper than anything else on the market without compromising quality. Its options aren’t too bad either, with options ranging from three-spoke to six-spoke rims, and plenty of color variation. Unfortunately, it only comes in 26” wheels and 17” frames. Thankfully, the lightweight aluminum build and quality 21-speed Shimano gearbox more than makes up for that.
Features
- Twin disc brakes
- Shimano 21-speed shifters
- Alloy rims and crank
- Suspension fork
- Front and rear derailleurs
- Anti-slip paddles
Pros
- Incredible price
- Easy assembly with precluded tools
- Superb wheel design
- Has cargo space and water holders
- Comfortable saddle
Cons
- May require some gear adjustments
- Suspension is non-adjustable

3. Roadmaster R8047WMDS Women’s Granite Peak
When it comes to feminine bikes for women, Roadmaster R8047WMDS is the best on the market.

The design is in itself elegant without even mentioning the 18-speed shifters or the quality suspension fork that accompanies it.
Features
- 26” wheels
- Shimano rear derailleur
- Steel frame
- 18-speed twist gearbox
- 14lbs
Pros
- Ideal for mountain biking and dirt roads
- Dedicated women’s bike
- Sleek construction

4. Mongoose Status 2.2 Men’s and Women’s
Unlike the more quarrelsome Roadmaster, Mongoose Status 2.2 maintains compatibility for both male and female riders. It uses front and rear V-brakes to ensure quick and easy stops on its lightweight aluminum frame. Indeed, the frame uses hydroformed tubing to ensure durability in addition to its powerful suspension fork. Its remarkable cable management and styling are similarly superb.
Features
- 21-speed shifters
- 26” wheels
- Alloy rims and crank
- Aluminum frame
- MTB styling
Pros
- Unisex
- Strong and durable build

You also get EZ-FIRE shifters in addition to MTB wheels and plenty of storage. As you can expect, all these amazing features come at an incredibly high cost to your wallet.
