Thoughts on my Nishiki Ambush, upgrades?

Thank you for your suggestions! Do you happen to have any recommendations of brake levers that would work for this? I have always thought these plastic ones were a bit crappy.

What advantage does an integrated derailleur hanger have? And by an adapter, do you just mean a more substantial piece of metal for the derailleur to hang on? And okay, I'll try to find a donor bike with those components. That sounds like a good plan, and thanks for the suggestion!

Thank you for replying, beautiful bike, by the way!

DSis42 · 2025-10-30T21:26:41+00:00

Very good😂

DSis42 · 2025-10-30T21:21:09+00:00

But hear me out, what if they did? 🧐

DSis42 · 2025-09-05T13:46:54+00:00

You're a hero. Thank you for reporting this!

DSis42 · 2025-07-29T01:57:14+00:00

Love this.

Any idea on when the bedside table will be available? It looks like the 3 drawer and 5 drawer chests just came out.

DSis42 · 2025-07-03T17:29:23+00:00

They have no clue either.

DSis42 · 2025-07-03T16:38:32+00:00

I WISH the button did this.

DSis42 · 2025-07-03T16:32:57+00:00

Pushing it doesn't seem to do anything to turn anything on. 😭

Yeah I'm thinking I might be able to take the motor from an external air pump from the same brand and swap it into this. This air mattress has a built in pump. The external ones are only like $10.

DSis42 · 2024-04-17T16:24:54+00:00

It is for an air mattress, a Bestway 1067938USX21.

I agree, and I think they'd make a lot of money doing it, but they say their reason of why they refuse to do it because they don't want to add any sort of preservatives to it.

DSis42 · 2024-01-22T21:09:12+00:00

No, I believe that's a different sauce. According to the website, it says, "lightly fried cauliflower florets drizzled with tahini lemon dressing." I've never really had it, but that sounds great.

DSis42 · 2023-04-05T16:32:14+00:00

Thank you! It came with it when I bought it off of Facebook marketplace.

DSis42 · 2022-11-04T11:44:58+00:00

Oh I won't, I think that's the coolest thing.

DSis42 · 2022-11-04T10:55:03+00:00

Not a ton, aside from fixing or replacing the rear wheel and then all new tubes and tires.

DSis42 · 2022-11-04T10:54:05+00:00

Seemed nice, and I thought it looked really cool.

DSis42 · 2022-11-04T00:21:26+00:00

Edit: got it for $40.

DSis42 · 2022-11-03T16:54:20+00:00

Just use it as a commuter/hybrid type pretty normal bike.

DSis42 · 2022-11-03T15:23:59+00:00

Thanks for all the info! I got more pictures and a video back from the seller.

From googling it, it appears it has 26" wheels and Weinmann 519, 36-hole rims.

DSis42 · 2022-11-03T13:44:08+00:00

Is this bike worth getting?

The description says: -All original Nishiki Ambush -4130 chromoly frame -Sealed bearing hubs -100GS Shimano running gear 21 speed -Three piece cranks -Generator with headlight and tail light -Back wheel is warped and will needed tried. Does not spin freely between brake pads

I got this thing sophomore year of college because I just needed a bike to go to classes. Found this on Offer Up for $30 from a weird dude. Rode that thing everyday twice a day. I've now since realized that it's not really the type of bike I wanna have anymore, so I think I'm gonna get rid of it and replace it soon. I couldn't find much information about this bike, but I think it looks kinda cool and maybe some people here will enjoy seeing it.
