Huffy Cranbrook
BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Bottom line
The Huffy Cranbrook comes at the lowest of prices, even for a single-speed beach cruiser. For your dollar, your purchase is pot-luck, to some extent. A number of buyers got a well-functioning, low-end bike that did the job of casual cruising on lowland terrain… as long as it was assembled correctly. For other riders, poorly finished and warped rims presented a barrier to riding and enjoying their bike. At this price, it was strongly suggested that buyers got their Cranbrook professionally assembled by a non-judgemental mechanic. As the base for a custom lowrider, klunker or dragster project, the Cranbrook presented less unwelcome surprises.
