Back In The Saddle — Story Of Cheri Belton

Some bikes are bought for adventure. Others are bought to make everyday life a little easier.

For Cheri, it was something much simpler.

She hadn't ridden a bike in more than 30 years.

With her 62nd birthday coming up this December, getting back on a bike wasn't something she ever thought she'd do again. But when her Kingbull Ranger arrived, she couldn't wait to take it out for a ride.

Her biggest concern wasn't speed or power.

It was comfort.

She shared that she sometimes deals with pain around her hips, and many bike seats become uncomfortable after only a short ride.

It didn't take long for the Kingbull Ranger to change her expectations.

"The seat is absolutely comfortable. This is the most comfortable seat I've ever ridden on. The suspension is very smooth. It just rides like a dream."

Cheri is about five feet tall, so she also wondered if the bike would feel too tall.

It turns out, it wasn't a problem.

"I'm still on my tiptoes a little bit," she wrote, "but it feels stable, and I'm comfortable with that."

Sometimes, feeling confident on a bike has less to do with experience and more to do with how secure it makes you feel.

By the end of the day, she wasn't talking about specifications or features.

She was simply excited to ride again.

"It's well worth the money, built sturdy to last. I'm so excited!"

After more than three decades away from cycling, that's probably the best compliment the Kingbull Ranger could receive.
