This video was just missing the details! Here’s some tips just from my experience:
1) Make sure front side that says “Huffy” on the side is facing forward before you line up the fender braces👌🏼 If not, you will be stuck on why the fender braces aren’t aligning properly.
2) Don’t screw in the 1st screw in the basket all the way, only half. So you can fit the basket support legs in the middle correctly before you insert the 2nd screw. Then tighten both all the way evenly.
3) The middle bolt from the hand bars: (The middle bar from the handle bar should be facing you) To unlock,unscrew towards the left. To lock, screw towards the right
4) The seat will tighten when you continue to screw the bolts all the way
5) just keep turning the lever clockwise a couple times until the seat tightens. It took me more than 5x to get it right.
Hope this helps✨
I was just going to post make sure fork is facing forward otherwise the fender won't fit right. I accidentally bent the fender a little. 😬 now I have to take the front wheel off to bend it back. argh!!! I'm glad it's not worse tho.
Hey, did you install additional brakes on your bike? If so, can you please share any videos you followed or how you got it done? Thank you!
Thank you Thank you! After a couple of hours of dealing with #1, I was ready to throw in the towel. I wonder why Huffy Corp doesn't place stickers with arrows pointing which way the part needs to face. I say this because I just assembled a workout cycle (not Huffy) with ease.
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you so so so much I was literally stuck on this for five hours
This is the hardest thing i ever had to assemble in my life, & I’m usually good at assembling things.
Been at it for like a day and a half still putting it together.... and the worst part is I'm slowly figuring out what to do it's trying to follow the instructions thats actually making it hard...well that and the fact I have the strength of a five pound cat so screwing all the stuff is hard
@@thelostonetxt8450 me too! its been a day and all i got done was the pedals, I'm only 13 and its so hard!
@@himynameissea I'd suggest a strong person's help took me three days and I didn't even put the basket on I ride without it
@@thelostonetxt8450 yeah ill ask someone else for help
I can’t believe this thing came without the Allen wrench
My thoughts exactly
Right?
What size Allen wrench does it need?
Yes, what size? I'm up to the handlebar in the instructions...it's larger than anything I have in the house.
@@Snoozeman I bought a set and it was the biggest size in the group of them.
For anyone saying that the seat won’t tighten, keep at those bolts with your wrench until you can’t go anymore. I thought that something was defective because my seat just wouldn’t tighten, and the pole would just fall out, but I just persisted and kept at it with the wrench until it wouldn’t tighten anymore and then it stayed in place and wouldn’t budge even a little
You are right! I was on the verge of returning...thx!
You saved my life!! I was getting so frustrated. Thanks!
Keep tightening with wrench and screwdriver as much possible. Then, leaving the wrench on the nut - and without using the screwrdriver - tap the wrench tighter using s small hammer on wrench "handle."
It’s these detailed instructions that are skipped that are so important!
This bike is a pain. Thank you!!!
I saw this video and thought, "Hey, that looks easy and very doable!" I saw the comments and ignored them, I didn't think this bike could possibly be that frustrating to assemble. I thought that I couldn't possibly struggle like everyone else. Just 2 hours later and this bike has made me cry, but at least it's assembled to what I hope is safe to ride. I knew I shouldn't have trusted someone with such highly arched eyebrows
AM_Seiko lmao eyebrows
Ive already had 3 mental break downs, and I’m probably gonna have to do the whole thing again
Very glad this video was available as for some reason I lost my instruction manual after just getting the bike.
Me too lol!!!😂💪
The instruction manual was horrible at giving instructions. This video was much better.
I assembled it by myself, I used this video it wasn't too bad, to be my first time doing this... just with the seat, I had to take it to the byke shop and they helped me to adjust it good.
I had the same seat tightening problem most of you guys have. I fixed it though. If your gears on the seat fell off make sure the rod is aligned with the gears the rods on the bottom of the seat. Also, you have to keep tightening.
Rose Lynn Girl yuh da 💣 Thanks!
See my reply under Clarissa Faustino's comment.
Took me about 2.5 hours to assemble by myself. The front and back bender were rubbing against the tire so I needed assistance from someone else in order to fix the fender. Bike is all built and ready to ride! I would say this is a 6.5/10 difficulty to build
hey i’m having the same problem, the tire is rubbing against the fender.. do you remember what they/you did to fix it?
@@celestial2112 Did you ever find the answer?
This bike is a pain in the ass and not easy to assemble. The lady in this video, idk her name it’s probably Cassandra, lied. It’s not that easy.
I love the fact that you assumed her name is Cassandra lol
I sent mine to the store so they could do it
All of yall need a man; this is easy af
just hope for the best
I love you.
Thank you! This video helped me put my daughters bike together with easy. I used a 6in adjustable wrench.
my dad and i got into huge arguments because of this bike..
Same!!
My boyfriend and I too.
So, did my wife and I.
My wife and I to she can't figure out the seat took the whole seat apart now we stuck and angry.
me too! and now hes making me do it myself! Im only 13!!!
The video was excellent. I followed all the steps and the bike works perfectly. Additional tools which will make the assembly easier - small vice-grip pliers, cordless screwdriver, pedal wrench, 15mm socket. So far the bike seems to be excellent quality.
Hi! Is the bike still doing good? I’m planning on buying it when it’s available at my store
@@yudithmolina7605 Yes, everything is still working as it should.
A low-life stole mine before I got to ride it. It was chained up at my senior apartment complex.
I just got this bike home, so excited, but there is NO WAY the front fender will fit this bike with out the tire rubbing the tire! Called customer service! They have Never had this issue, Sure they haven't, they will send a new one in 7 to 10 days! Incredible!!!
I purchased 3 bikes and they all have the same problem!
Yes, just figured that out! THANK YOU!Make sure the fender over front wheel is pulled all the way up away from wheel and then tighten screw/ bolt! Figured this out after securing basket step and the video has you check to make sure fender isn't touching wheel. With all the complaints about the written instructions and video, you would think Huffy would do a revamp!!! I bought 3 of these bikes. So hopefully the assembly of the other two won't take me as long and I now know all the ins and outs!!!😒😬🥴😳
Thank you. The video was very helpful and we'll explained. Got it together for my daughter.
Before you assemble anything…. Make sure the upper bracket that is attached to the steering portion of the front wheel and connects to the basket is aligned with the wheel.
I just spent 2+ hours assembling until I got to attaching the basket and noticed the upper bracket was leaning to the left. I tried to unscrew and straighten but that is a part that was sent like that so I had to use my warranty.
Good news is they are sending a new bike 👍🏼 Here’s to hoping it’s actually straight 🤞🏼
I'm having the same seat issues, still havent figured it out. I do have a question tho. Is it normal for the tires to be completely flat? I wasnt expecting that. Now I have to go fill the tires to even see if I put it together correctly.
Awesome instructions, thank goodness for TH-cam
Ty, I bought my baby a cruiser bike. I had no idea to flip the handle bars.
Glad we could help! #LiveTheRide
One more tip guys, don't clamp the seat tube when the sit post is at the narrow section. If you want to set the seat as low as possible, make sure there is still some of the thicker part of the seat post at the clamp area when you tighten the clamp.
Also, I don't think the weldings of the frame of the bike will be safe for vigorous riding, but that's not the intended purpose of this bike. Just some casual stroll around town/college at slow speeds will do fine.
Watching this video helped me and my chikd out alot we rolling thanks Ms Lady🚴♀️🚴♀️🚴♀️
The most garbage manual I have ever seen for any unassembled product I have purchased.
Thanks for this video it helped putting my bike together a lot!
People who have never owned and maintained a single speed cruiser bike, and can't follow assembly instructions, should have the bike assembled by Walmart or a bicycle shop. The seat needs to be tightened with parts aligned properly using plenty of force on the wrench to tighten seat securely to the post. The quick release seat post clamp needs to be adjusted so that it takes a LOT of force to move the lever to the locked position and hold the seat post securely. The basket brace has to have the bottom part in the proper direction to clear the bottom of the fork. My bike apparently had no grease in fork bearings, front wheel bearings and bottom bracket. I took my bike to a local bike shop for a "safety inspection" which includes lubrication and adjustment of wheels, fork bearings and "bottom bracket" (pedal/sprocket assembly) . Otherwise I would have had to buy special thin wrenches to disassemble wheel bearings etc., grease them and adjust them myself. Bike shop charges $35. BTW, only inflate the tires to 20 psi which is sufficient for a smooth ride, ignore the 40 psi rating on side of tire. Make sure tire edge bead is secure in wheel rim all around the tire before inflating tire. I think this bike will be as good as any similar bike if assembled, lubricated and adjusted properly.
Correction, make sure tires are properly held by rim all around , inflate to 35 psi as advised by my bike shop.
It’s been 30 minutes and I’m still stuck on 0:46
same this and the seat just lifts off and it doesnt come with a much needed allen wrech like cmon man
So I’ve finished the bike after much trial and error...and this is the worse bike to ride. I have tried to ride on a nearby trail and this thing can’t go over a small hump..idk if it’s my petals but this thing takes so much force to move.
@@Sdlonra It is because the Coaster breaks. Impossible to hump up with this.
I'm so excited to get my Nell lusso bike!! I been waiting for a week now I'm so excited
Good luck with that. Post your experience when you finally get it...
I recommend using a combination wrench or similar rather than the adjustable wrench
Very useful video. Thank you so much 🙏
Tomorrow should be an interesting day since ill be helping building this
Thank you so much for this very helpful instructional video! You saved me!!!
Thank you for putting this video because I got the same thing I liked and subscribed
I have this one!!!!! It’s the best!
Michelle_ Najera Rodriguez I’ve tried it, it’s a little wobbly, but doable.
How do you make the center clamp for the handlebars tight enough? I went to ride and my weight pushed the handlebars downward, nearly causing me to faceplant! I tightened the nut as far as it would go and tested it like in the video.
I'm buying this bike for myself online and was gonna pay for it to be assembled but I think I can build it myself and save a few dollars
How do I keep the actual seat from twisting around and falling forward when the bolts are as tight as can be?
low quality bikes are really like that
Is there any way to get the black piece of the basket from a shop?
I lost mine, and now I don’t have a basket..
So the back bracket on my bike is backwards and i dont know what to do, help! Also I’m dont know how to assemble the part where the bike seat connects to the pole and I’m getting pretty upset over this. So please help
I just bought a cruiser and the upper bracket for the basket is backwards and im unable to loosen the frame.to spin it around. Any tips?
Does anyone know what type of bolts and screws are used for the 2 rods that are holding up the basket? I keep trying to find out because I need replacement parts for it. I can't find anything for it and Huffy's website is being a tad difficult!
Are the fenders a necessary part of the frame? Like, if I wanna install brakes and the fender is in the way, can I just remove the fender??
Just buy it pre assembled by Walmart
Richard C Was curious of you can do that. I want to buy that exact bike but don’t want to deal with assembling it. Nor do I want to pay for it to be done for me
@@wwredgrl1515 ya just head down to Walmart and look if they have it on the rack.
Beautiful bike but Huffy should have included a rubber mallet and some touch up paint. I envision the American Tourister gorilla tossing the box around in the warehouse. The quick release lever doesn't keep the seat secure no matter how tight you make it.
I’m missing the wire fork for the basket? Shipped from Walmart
Finding some of the assembly of the Huffy Marietta frustrating. The seat post went into the frame of the bicycle and is firmly stuck in there. It won't budge and can't be removed. Now what?
What size is the peddle thread for a 26 in nel lusso?
How do I replace the back tire tube? No help online
So what happens if after putting the basket on the front fender does touch the wheel when spinning? I can’t figure out where I went wrong
I'm trying to figure that out this instant! 🤣🤔😬😡. They (Huffy) need better instructions and video!!!
I'm having the same issue. It looks bent so mine might be defective. Did you fix yours?
I can say that in my case the notch where the mounting bracket goes is off center and has caused massive headache until I figured out what was wrong. Huffy is insisting on sending a new basket mount, if I am lucky, it is the notch on the bracket. I don't believe it is, after all the micro meter measuring. But there is always a chance I am wrong and the indentation insert for the notch on the bracket is correct and the notch is wrong.
If I am counting correctly this is the 12th or 13th bicycle I have put together. The trick bikes of the mid 80's were easier than this! For someone who can change jets in their carb on a "bike" this assembly is a little piece of hell. Hopefully tomorrow......
i can’t find the basket attachment
Perfect, thanks.
wish this had torque specs. I always feel more comfortable using torque specs lol.
Mine came without a second bolt for the fender brace ! Useless until I get a replacement piece.
If you don’t have a wrench will pliers work
My seat came with the parts not connected… how do i do it?
The front wheel doesn't rotate freely, it raps into the fork and the fender. What should I do? She didn't' mention the solution. Please help.
ME AND MY FAMILY HAVE BEEN AT THIS DAMN BIKE SEAT FOR HOURS AND HOURS AND DAYS AND IT WON'T TIGHTEN. HELP. WHAT DO WE DO. NO MATTER WHAT THE SEAT WILL NOT TIGHTEN OR KEEP FROM MOVING.
Our Customer Service Representatives can help you figure this out. Please contact us at 800.872.2453 or at service@huffy.com for personal assistance. So sorry you're having issues!
I had the same problem I just kept tighten it I felt like I was going to strip the bolt
we are having the opposite problem! i tried to open the thing and now I can't fit it into the seat tube!
If you don't want a migraine and yo spend 6 hours trying to assemble a bike, that still ends up unable to be assembled properly then do not bother spending your money on this bike. The least they could have done was included the L bar tools to assemble the handle bars properly. I ended up with a seat bar stuck inside the bike chamber , that I can not get out, with no seat able to be attached to it and handle bars I can not tighten and assemble due to not having a proper L bar wrench and the directions still being unclear. I don't even know If I would be able to figure out how to assemble the handle bars, even If I had the L bar wrench. The handlebars also had a tight plastic wrap around the bottom bar, that I could not pull off and had to spend 20 mins trying to cut through. I contacted a local bike shop to see if they could put the seat and handlebars on the bike for me and they want to charge me $75m so spend your money wisely and buy a bike that is either assembled or very easy to assemble, that comes with the tools you need and clear concise directions. So disappointing !
Not me watching this video religiously BC my bike is arriving soon 👁👄👁
I got the baby blue huffy Lel nesso with a basket a cup and phone holder
Me too. It was already assembled. Chained it to a bike rack at my senior apartment building but someone cut the chain and stole my boke before I even rode it. 😔 I despise thieves.
how do i find replacement screws for the basket. My recently fell off
Great video thank you.
the handle bar keeps moving even when i tighten it all the way till i cant. and the seat post got stuck in the frame and i can’t get it out. this bike is a nightmare
Video doesn't show rear wheel assembly and adjustment in order to tighten chain on sprocket.
Jesus Christ. The seat rod would NOT stop spinning . Thankfully my fiancé is strong enough to bend the metal & make it tight. But my goodness....
We are so sorry you had such mega issues! Please reach out to fill us in more so we can provide any additional service needed and advise the factory accordingly. We can be reached at 800.872.2453 or at service@huffy.com. Thank you, Ashley!
See my reply to other comment under "seat tightening."
See my reply under Clarissa Faustino's comment.
.... Huffy actually used the words "mega issue" ... yeah, dude, it was like totally gnarly. Right on, right on, right on.
My front fender keeps touching the front tire. Any advice how to fix this?
If your fender is touching the top of the wheel: unscrew your top bolt slightly until you can lift the fender up- so the bolt is at the BOTTOM of the oval loop in which you screw the bolt in. Hold the fender up so the bolt stays at the bottom, then tighten while keeping it there. If your fender is touching the sides of your wheel, loosen the bolts at the end of the metal stems of the fender, then move each stem forwards or backwards until the fender does not touch the wheel, then tighten each bolt in the position that doesn’t touch the wheel.
I have tried this and the fender silver stems are still touching the wheel
Where's the grease in any of the parts that should have them? The seatpost will soon get seized in the seat tube due to zero grease, the quill stem will soon not be able to move over time since there isn't any grease in there and it'll shave off alot of metal! The threads of the axel should be also be greased so you can get it as tight as possible without over tightening it! The pedal threads should also be greased otherwise over time it'll get stuck in there! The front wheel was so out of true when it was being spun, so that should also get trued with a spoke tool💯. I'm also going to assume the cups in the one piece bottom bracket shell were also not greased. This bike isn't gonna wistand so well if taken to a beach or even left outside in rain for more than a day! This bike could be rather good if all those things were done but since it isn't. Well it's not gonna be so good, want my advice when putting together a bike from outside the box? GREASE THE PARTS THAT NEED IT!
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTION OR ARE NOT CONFIDENT SETTING UP THE BIKE YOU SELF TAKE IT TO A BICYCLE SHOP, WERE HAPPY TO HELP OUR COMMUNITY.
what about the brake adjustments?????????????????????????????????
U brake by going backwards lol 2 yrs later
my cruiser bike, is noisy have a sounds nose if it is the seat, is it new one?
the fender keeps rubbing the tire and although i dearly wish to fix it without busting out the toolbox i don’t think that’s on a happen so anyone know any fixes?
nvm after an hour of intrusively wanting to kick the bike down a hill i’ve decided it does not need a fender.
@@celestial2112 🤣🤣🤣 Go with the flow . . .
Can’t anybody help me? I purchased this bike and assembled it myself. The only thing it was missing/ wasn’t included was the cup holder bolt. Was wondering if anybody has the measurements on the bolt before I head to the local hardware store.
How do I put this bike on a bike rack
Can I add my own rear hand brakes to the bike? I can't pedal backwards to stop lmao
I GOT THE BIKE! TUTORIAL HELPED BUT YOU NEED LIKE 2 PEOPLE IF YOU AREN'T STRONG (LIKE ME) ALSO KEEP TWISTING THE NUTS FOR THE SEATS UNTIL YOU CAN'T NO MORE.
Mine is really hard to pedal, any advise ?
When you buy the bike do you have to assemble it yourself or does it come assembled?
The Nel Lusso is a Walmart exclusive. If you purchase it in-store you have the option to have it assembled. Any bike that is shipped directly to your home will not arrive assembled.
@@HuffyBicycles walmart said they don't assemble it
@@DragonQueen78 Walmart has bikes that are already assembled. The worker will get it down from the high rack and you walk the bike to the check out line. That's what my brother in law & I did. 🙂👍
"And that's that" my @$$!!! One of the most difficult things I have ever assembled. Won't ever make that mistake again.
We're sorry to hear you are having some trouble, Savannah! Please give us a call at 800 872 2453 for assistance.
I’m not even kidding. Took me three hours to get all this done, and the seat is still sliding. Oh well, I’m just gonna get that later. Lol
Do they come with brakes? Mine didn't have brakes.
These bikes have coaster/foot brakes. You pedal backwards to brake.
Oddysea Cat Downhill is actually pretty okay! Use your strongest foot for the back though, and stay calm.
Oddysea Cat lol 😂
I took my 02:30 hours to do it. However, front tier still raping to fork and fender, I don' t know what to do.
Is it normal that wen I sit on my bike that the back tie look flat but it not
you just need to put more air in the tire
This is one nightmare of a bike to put together!
We're sorry to hear you're having trouble. If you have specific questions about assembly, you are welcome to reach out to our customer service team at 800 872 2453. They're great and should be able to give you some more guidance in assembling your cruiser. Thanks!
I misplaced one of the bolts for the mounting braces and now I am low key freaking out.
Me too
Idk what to do
Good luck trying to get replacement parts...
The seat won't tighten!!!!!!! simply either the pole is too narrow or the tightening part is too big or too stiff. Anyway, the seat is spinning on top of the pole.
She gives directions like we've already done this a dozen times. She should have the camera zoom in on what she's doing and the parts she's using. The welding job on this bike is pretty crappy and for a company that has been around for a while, you'd think they could print directions for the specific bike that you purchase. The bike is made in China as it is and they are already saving money. Put some of it in a proper manual.
The seat wont tighten
My front tire continues to rub fender. The tire is bent, we can see it is. What would anyone do?
What size is the chain
How long do I have to wait to receive my bike?????
I'd wager you're still waiting. There was a rush on bicycles in March/April of 2020 and production is at a stand-still even now (Jan 2021). I only managed to get one by paying double the retail to buy from a retail pirate on eBay....
horrible instructions. i now have a scooter
HAKSJDKFKJFJFJF LMAO
Can I just take it to Walmart and let them assemble it???? I cannot put things together for the life of me
Hello, We're sorry to hear you are having trouble. For specific assembly questions, you can contact our customer service center at 800 872 2453. Thank you!
Same here. Got this today and found out that there are no brakes and that I have to buy them separate ugh

Huffy Bicycles HOW DOES THE ROD TO THE SEAT TIGHTEN ALL THE WAY. This is so beyond frustrating
Poor design/quality and not a sturdy bike that would last for years so we returned it. Arrived with damaged/bent parts. The front fender is very poorly designed, the top bracket cannot be safely attached to the frame in order to clear the tire, and the aluminum side brackets are thin/flimsy, very easily bent, and there is very little clearance for the tire. Directions are poorly written/illustrated and were not usability tested for accuracy and/or completeness. Also, the 800 number just tells you there is no phone support for assembly problems and to submit an email, which would take a day or two to get a reply.
Thank u for this review!
Having issues assembling the seat. The bar seems like it is the wrong size for the bike
Hi Jacquelyn, sorry to hear you're having some trouble. Our customer care team can help figure out the issue and send you the correct part if that's the case. Please send an email to service@huffy.com for assistance. Our apologies for the inconvenience.
6:43 might help
The fender braces do not line up ! At all. What is this!!!
Rotate the forks. Mine did the same and once I realized the fendrr braces weren't attaching, I knew the forks were on backwards. Came packaged like that!!!
Darlene Herbert thank you. I ended up just buying one put together. Wonderful bike
Anyone have wobbly wheels and know how to fix it? I don’t wanna return it
Is the bike have brake?
You pedal backward (basic pedal brake).
(1940s radio voice) so easy a woman can do it!
My handle bars won’t tighten to the wheel?.? What am I doing wrong?
U brought this bike!
I wish I could find a place to buy this bike. Every Walmart by me can't keep them in stock. Can't reserve one, can't order on line. Want the yellow one for the wife.
Yes because of the corona pple wanna excersize, I got lucky this week just keep checking like I did
I finally was able to buy the 24" version from Walmart. They had it boxed yet, so I grabbed it. There was a 2-week wait for assembly so I'm trying myself. I have it completely put together except for the dreaded seat. It will not tighten.
I got mine from a fellow on Offer Up. Sealed in the box.
In the end, I had to ask my ex-husband to help me tighten the seat so it would work. I just did not have enough strength to get it tight enough.
I got my bike yesterday and my sister moved the seat:((
1:24 makes me uncomfortable
Why?
So my wheel not rotating freely what to do next
Sorry to hear that, Melissa. Give us a call at 800 872 2453 and we'll help figure out the issue. We're available Mon.-Fri. 8-8.
The handlebars wont stay in place, no matter how tight I make them.
i have same issue did u find solution?
