I bought this last week at a department store. The only reason I got this is because my gf wants us to have a no/low impact activity because I weigh 300 pounds and she is 230.
I chose this one mostly because it was cheap, at only 70 bucks, and it could support my weight. I got her a cruiser for 70 as well. I didn't want to put a lot of money into getting them because I figured she'd lose interest in it soon enough.
I'm the type of person to do a ton of research before and after buying something. I'm a little more enthusiastic about bicycles now. I know this would be a shit bike for any kind of hefty use, like a downhill MTB trail. In fact the handlebar has already come loose and I had to re-tighten it, and the things shifts like garbage. But it's been fun re discovering my inner child.
Also, my daughter likes riding with me. I got her an in-step bicycle trailer and she enjoys the ride. I think I'll be a little more serious in the maintenance now.
Sorry for all the text.
TL;DR: Fatty got a fat tire bike because other tires can't hold him.
