Awesome I want one now. Only thing I see against it is it looks like the sidehack is permanently attached to the bike and not removable.
It doesn't matter what I paid for it, it matters what it's WORTH. I never buy anything I will regret KEEPING.

Now you can pick up the Thruster fixie for $100.

I picked one up for parts. I wanted to build a non-conformist fixie for the heck of it. I got one of these and used the wheelset with tires, the chain, seat, brake/s and handle bars on my rusty 3 speed Sears frame. (pic is before the bars and brakes)

As much as I hate the Thruster Fixie, it is a good price for parts (normal for Wally bikes) but I think if I bought it I'd have to put the red tire on the red rim and yellow on yellow.

You paid a penny too much! Thruster Fixie has been $99.99 here ever since it showed up.

Ever wonder who would buy one of those things and not immediately scavenge it for parts? This guy:

Great bike review by a guy who seems to know next to nothing about bikes.

What you meant to say was that some guy who knows nothing about bikes gave this one a good review IN THE STORE! haha Wow, I hate to think that he is actually making money on the internet.

I've been thinkin' about it, and I bet they put that goo that passes for lube on dime store bikes to keep the bearings from flying, as they slam the parts together. :roll:
it's all about the bikes, man. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=50053
I was going to update my sig line, but I'm not seein' anything worth plagiarizing right now.

target's new line looks promising. i want the airwalk cruiser, it looks to be the same frame as the OP. none of the cooler bikes on the site say that they are sold in-store tho. u gotta order them. thats a dumb business model but itll keep some lowlife from installing the forks backwards i guess

Kmart has a few nice ones I like too but most are online not in the stores.

I like the paint color on this one but it looks a little better when your next to it.

Men's Schwinn with a Springer fork.

I picked up that third one online from Sears; 26" Victory Cruiser" on earth day for free. Fully assembled it is light and has good specs. I rode it today for 12 good miles and am happy with it. Free ? Yes, here's how. Bikes were on sale,then additional 10% off for Earth Day brought the price down below $200. I use a Sears rewards credit card,always pay it off in full. Auto insurance,home insurance,everything.Those points add up.Redeemed for a $200 gift card that covered the bike and sales tax,free shipping to store. Offering this info to readers as a way to buy that bike that you want.

I gotta say their cruiser selection is alot better, even though it mainly consists of Cranbrooks dressed up like Kareoke, Nell Lusso and Panama Jack. Now their chinese Schwinns (hurts seeing those two words side by side) are lookin descent latley.

2008 Point Beach 7speed (aluminum frame too, got it used off a coworker who never rode it and knew I liked bikes, so he sold it to me for $10 (and I knew it was not stolen for a fact). Gave him $20 so I wouldn't feel guilty.

Don't knock the Chinese stuff too much, it's YOUR tax dollars producing that stuff. :)
