The deal with Walmart bikes that most people are unaware of is the fact that they are not trained bicycle mechanics. There have been many threads claiming if they do not assemble 30 or so bikes a day they will be fired. This is common all across the U.S.A.
Think about this for a second. Eight hour day, 10min break, 1/2 hour lunch. (average).
So, forget about breaks and use 8 hours even. That would mean 16min. per bike. Now geared or not geared, that is crazy. Think about the time used to even cut it out of the box to even start to assemble the bike.

There are two kinds of people in the world, "Those who help themselves to people, and those who help people!"
