I'm curious to know, though, what are the handlebar endcaps and the seat made out of? They look like they're rubbery... ?
<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">If they're rubber, it's a very hard rubber. They don't have any "give" to them. OTOH, the tires are definitely a soft rubber or something like that.

BTW, since I posted my review, I've noticed that the very prominent smell the bike had coming out of the box has not gone away. The odor is now noticeable throughout my dollroom, so much so that I've put the bike out on the deck to air for a few hours.

I don't recall ever getting a smelly AG item before, so this is a surprise.
