Next Bicycle Customer Reviews rather ambiguous. For example, the owners of the Next Octane 26 '' bike are not very happy with their purchase. The main advantage was the price of the product, since it was very cheap for a mountain model. But the assembly of the product left much to be desired. People noted a poorly damping fork, a narrow seat, an unregulated steering wheel in height, poor quality brakes, and lack of mudguards and keys in the kit. Of the benefits distinguished soft gear shifting and comfortable wheels.

The owners of the Next Infiniti mining model are also not entirely happy with their purchase. The base tires were wide, so they had to be replaced immediately. The inconvenient seat was also replaced with a new one, as after the first trip the back began to hurt. After a couple of weeks, some people had to reconfigure the speed switch and brakes, which is quite difficult without certain skills. Over time, many components of the bike began to break down for many - the pedals fell off, the shock absorber stopped working, the steering wheel turned off. In general, there were more minuses to acquiring such a model than pluses.

Reviews about the Next Ozone bike model also have few positive points. Buyers were satisfied only with the appearance of the product and the lack of difficulty in assembling it, as well as the low price.
