Customer Reviews

I bought this bike for my 11 year old son who is currently 5'6" and growing. I chose the free shipping and originally Amazon estimated it to be delivered two weeks after I put in the order. It actually came one week later and I was able to track it through UPS after Amazon sent me the tracking number. I feel that I got a great deal since there was no tax and no shipping charges -- I also saw the price go up $15 in less than a week.
It came almost fully assembled -- thank goodness! My brother said he would help but I found that it was best to go to a local bike shop to put on the wheel and handlebars. At the same time, they made sure it was adjusted properly and in safe working order. Although I got it done for free (it was through a friend), I would have paid $20-25 to have make sure that it is done properly.
I live in New York City -- this past weekend was beautiful weather here and I asked my kids if they wanted to go bike riding in Central Park. My son, which I found out later, was scared to get on his new bike because he thought it was too big for him. I took it instead (I'm 5'5") and it was a pleasure to ride. I may add that I haven't been on a bike in many years. I wasn't sure if it was too big or would I understand how to use the gears, but everything went fine and it was perfect, especially with the adjustable seat. It rode very smooth and I really enjoyed it. I probably will order the same bike for myself as I don't have one currently.
I think since he sees that I was able to ride it, he is less scared of trying it. I would highly recommend this bike and it was a very good experience ordering something through Amazon -- my first time.

One of the main reasons I wanted a bike was for basic "around town" transportation and to and from work. Especially now, with the price of gas and auto insurance. I'd thought that riding a bike would be easier on the pocket book. And having looking around for a nice affordable bike, I thought that the Schwinn would fit my bill, perfectly. I knew that they made a nice quality bike, was one of the strong points, and it is. I was luck enough to have seen the bike first hand at my local K-mart, and I was impressed with it. Especially since they have them basically fully assembled for no extra cost. I did have to local bike shop help me to center the handle bars and I bought a tire level. But basically the bike rode great, and the brakes and gears were easy to use. I was surprised how smooth the bike rode, just for having it right out of the store. It had been many years since I really ridden a bike, but I was the best so far. I had one other small problem, I had to level out the bike seat, but I fixed that problem, myself. But basically, I think that bike did provide the best bang for the buck. If those wanted to really take it off road and ride it on the trail, I'd switch the tires for something more knobby and maybe, see about tuning the front shock forks, if that were possible. But it's Ok, for regular street use and for a nice ride in the park. I'd recommend it, if you want a nice bike without the big buck price tag.
