We think most people can put this together using the provided instructions and a little help from the internet. The only difficulties are getting everything lined up properly since the fenders on the wheels can be off. It’s up to you if you want to take it to a bike shop and have them do it. It’ll certainly save time and ensure the job is done properly, but it’ll probably cost a bit extra.
The seat also has a slight rise in the front for more stability. But for riding around town, through the park or even for some small trips – it`s perfect. One of the biggest advantages of Huffy Nel Lusso is the large folding basket. Great for picnics, storing groceries or carrying water, food, extra clothes or even a small sized dog. And when you don`t need it, just collapse it to provide a flat “bed”. The wheels are aluminum alloy with stainless steel spokes.
Several reviewers who have a balance or weight issues rave about the Huffy Nel Lusso. It provides them a means to get some heart-healthy movement into their lives while they enjoy the outdoors or run errands.
In overall – decent construction, completely sufficient for this type of bike. The high handlebars and step-through frame are better for riders who experience back pain. Sitting in an upright position puts less stress on the lower back. The rider has less risk of strain when getting on and off the Meridian. The cargo basket is fantastic for groceries or other cargo. The manufacturer warns riders that the cargo area is not for pets, children, or other passengers.
But the Schwinn Meridian Tricycle for adults is an excellent alternative to a bicycle for your commute or weight loss. That way you don’t need to worry about trying to get those assembled and mounted to the frame. The brake cords are attached, so the main frame and handle bars are connected by those cords.
