Pacific, Next, Hyper, Magna, Roadmaster, in the bottom of worst bikes ever. I cringe everytime I see someone specially kids getting excited when buying one of these hunk of junk bikes at Walmart, Target, or defunct Kmart. Huffy makes some junk too but actually they did some decent bikes such as my 2002 Arlington hybrid bike which turned out to be my first adult size bike, it's heavy but good looking, good entry level derailleurs, but the only downside of it are it's phony plastic chrome painted crank arms, one of them developed a crack but i had put some good epoxy glue to fill the crack and worked perfectly. Not to mention, they did really good bikes back before 1975 and they also invented the "muscle bike" in the 60's. Schwinn and Mongoose also made some really crappy bikes and some other good ones but I wouldn't get me anything from them unless it's either of their most expensive models. many guys here mentioned the Free Spirit bikes from the 70's, 80's, lol, many of them were really nice decent bikes, like my 80-83 FS10 which came with decent Falcon parts, and tank-like steel frame, has been really really a good looking and nice bike.
