TumbleWeed 24-Inch Mountain Bike Review
A 24-inch mountain bike listed from $245.99 with a carbon steel frame, 21 speeds and a 100mm front fork, as the page states. It suits riders of 4'2" to 4'9" per the page; the table gives a weight of 29.9 lb while the page's separate Specs list says 41.00 lb.

Our verdict
Suited to riders between 4'2" and 4'9", the range the page gives, who want a 24-inch bike with the front fork and disc brakes the page lists, from $245.99. Look elsewhere if you are taller than that range or want a brake type and load figure that the page states the same way throughout. The main caveat is that every figure is the store's own, and the page contradicts itself on the bike's weight (29.9 lb in the table, 41.00 lb in the separate Specs list), on maximum weight and on how the brakes are named.
- Best for
- Riders of 4'2" to 4'9" who want a 24-inch bike with the front fork and disc brakes the page lists, from $245.99.
- Skip if
- You are taller than 4'9" or want a brake type, bike weight and maximum weight that the page states consistently.
Why 3.3/5: Lifted by a table that covers frame, wheel size, rider height, weight and gearing. Held back by differing weights in the table and the Specs list, the store's own pages contradicting each other on terms, almost no independent reputation signal for the store, and no independent test of this model.
Hycline sells this 24-inch mountain bike under the TumbleWeed name, listed from $245.99. The table lists 24 x 2.125 tires, a carbon steel frame in a 24x16 size, a twist shifter with 21 speeds and a weight of 29.9 lb, though the page's separate Specs list says 41.00 lb, and the page recommends it for riders of 4'2" to 4'9". The text adds a 100mm front suspension fork and mechanical dual disc brakes, and calls it a beach and mountain bike.

Options and pricing
The page offers one size, 24 x 2.125, in three colors. Green and Black are priced at $245.99, while Dark Blue is $319.99, and the page gives no reason for the higher figure. It shows a crossed-out price of $359.99 on at least one option. All three variants were in stock when the page was read. The table's Color Family row names only Green / Black, the separate Specs list reads Green; Green / Black, and the table lists a frame size of 24x16.
How it compares
Set beside the TumbleWeed 26-Inch Mountain Bike, listed at $325.99 with 26 x 2.125 tires, an aluminum alloy frame and a weight of 36.3 on its spec line, this bike's table lists a carbon steel frame and 29.9 lb, against 41.00 lb in its separate Specs list. The Ecarpat XR1 24-Inch Mountain Bike costs $267.99 and lists a carbon steel frame and a weight of 39.69 on its spec line. The Ecarpat Tamer KR Mountain Bike, 24 to 27.5-Inch starts at $305.99, with weights of 39.69, 45.00 and 49.00 across its three sizes.
Shipping, returns and warranty
Shipping: the shipping policy covers the continental US only and says the store does not ship outside the United States (the About page mentions DHL and USPS for orders outside the US), yet its table lists a Hawaii and Alaska rate of $25.99 under a heading that excludes both. General-size items ship free over $99.99 (Standard, 4 to 6 days) or for $5.99 below that, with Expedited at $7.99 and 3rd Day at $12.99; bikes and suspension forks count as oversized and ship Standard in 7 to 15 days for $29.99, so a bike's free-shipping banner does not remove that charge. Orders leave within 1 business day with a tracking number, delivery needs a signature, and damage must be noted on the delivery receipt and reported within 24 hours with photos and video; product pages say the order comes from the nearest of 7 US warehouses, and the About page gives a Stockton, California address. Returns: the refund policy gives 30 days for new, unused items in original packaging, with photos sent first to get a return label; for a change of mind the buyer pays return shipping (the About page calls 30-day returns free), while a defective item can be returned within 30 days without restocking or return fees, and after that the policy offers help with manufacturer warranty support. The refund is processed within 48 hours of approval in the policy and within 24 working hours of the warehouse receiving the item in the FAQ. Warranty: the Terms of Service hold only an as-is disclaimer and are governed by the laws of China; the one-year figure comes from the product pages (a 'Manufacturer Warranty' row on most bike pages and a '1-year warranty' line under the buy box), and no page says what it covers or how to claim.
Before you buy
The page shows no customer reviews of this bike; the store's own review page lists 3,669 reviews, and 23 of the 25 it displays are about tires or tubes. Reputation: on Trustpilot (read on the Australian site) hyclinebike.com is an unclaimed profile with one review, five stars from April 2023 about 700c tires, and nothing newer. The store's review page shows 4.66 stars from 3,669 reviews through a Judge.me widget that we could not verify. The registry shows hyclinebike.com registered on 2 November 2022, while the About page says the site opened in 2019 and the company grew from a repair shop and a tire factory; it gives a Stockton, California address, and the Terms are governed by the laws of China. Web searches on 22 October 2026 found no independent review of the store's complete bikes. The review shows the code FACESTORE. A cart test on 22 October 2026, made without the affiliate link, took 5% off bikes, a trike and parts; if the discount line is missing from your cart, enter FACESTORE at checkout. The page shows a crossed-out regular price; that is the store's own comparison figure.
What we liked
- The table gives 24 x 2.125 tires, a 24x16 frame size and a rider height of 4'2"-4'9", and the separate Specs list repeats all three.
- The page lists a 100mm front suspension fork together with mechanical dual disc brakes.
- The table lists a 21-speed twist shifter, and the page says the bike is 85% pre-assembled with all tools included in the package.
- The $245.99 starting price is below the $267.99 listed for the Ecarpat XR1 24-Inch.
Worth noting
- The page gives the maximum weight as 250 lbs in one line and 255 lbs in two others, so it does not settle its own limit.
- One section is headed 'U Brakes' while the text elsewhere describes disc brakes, so the feature text is inconsistent about the brakes.
- Dark Blue is listed at $319.99 while Green and Black are $245.99, and the page does not explain the difference.
- The table lists a weight of 29.9 lb while the page's separate Specs list says 41.00 lb, so the page does not settle the bike's weight.
Questions before you buy
What rider height does the TumbleWeed 24-Inch list?
The table lists 4'2"-4'9" (50-57 inches), and the saddle text gives the same range for a saddle that adjusts over 0-6.5 inch. Only one size option appears on the page.
How much of the bike comes assembled?
The page says 85% pre-assembled and lists all tools as included in the package. One feature line names the handlebar, saddle, front wheel and pedals as the parts to fit, while the assembly section names the front wheel, handlebars and pedals. It also says to rotate the fork 180 degrees before fitting the front wheel.
What is the TumbleWeed 24-Inch frame made of?
The table lists a Carbon Steel Frame, and a feature line calls it a steel frame in a 24x16 inch size. The page does not name a grade of steel.
Where does Hycline ship, and what does a bike cost to ship?
The policy covers the continental US only (Hawaii and Alaska are listed at $25.99 in one table but excluded in its heading). Bikes and suspension forks are oversized: Standard shipping takes 7 to 15 days after handling and costs $29.99, even though the page banner offers free shipping over $99. Orders ship within 1 business day with tracking and a signature at delivery.
What is the return window?
30 days for new, unused items in original packaging, after sending photos and receiving a return label. You pay return shipping for a change of mind (the About page calls returns free); a defective item has no restocking or return fee. Many bike pages show 'Returnable 90-Day' in their spec tables, which the policy does not repeat.
Does the bike have a warranty?
Most bike pages list a 1-year manufacturer warranty, and the buy-box blurb says '1-year warranty', but the Terms of Service and the policies name no warranty period, coverage or claim process. Ask [email protected] for the terms in writing before ordering.

What we couldn’t verify
- The bike's weight is 29.9 lb in the table but 41.00 lb in the page's separate Specs list. The maximum weight is 250 lbs in one feature line and 255 lbs under the saddle text and in the table's Max Load row; the assembly lines also differ on whether the saddle is left to fit.
- A section headed 'U Brakes' sits beside text that describes mechanical dual disc brakes, so the feature text does not settle which brake is fitted, although the Specs list says Mechanical Disc Brake.
- The Color Family row lists Green / Black and the Specs list Green; Green / Black, but the options include Dark Blue at $319.99 with no explanation. The Specs list also words the shifter as Thumb Shifter; Shimano 21-Speed where the table says Twist shifter.
- The About page calls 30-day returns free, while the return policy makes buyers pay return shipping for a change of mind.
- The store's terms and policies name no warranty period or coverage; the 1-year figure appears only on product pages.
- The shipping policy treats bikes as oversized at a flat $29.99 (Standard, 7 to 15 days) while the buy-box blurb says free shipping over $99; the policy also lists a Hawaii and Alaska rate while excluding both.
- No independent test or customer review of this model was found in web searches made on 22 October 2026, and the page's own copy is the only source for its figures.
