great price and it’s a Schwinn I got a great deal on this. It was originally $210.00, and on sale $169.00. With free shipping from Amazon Prime, and a $50 credit from applying for, and getting, the Amazon Rewards, the total cost came out to $119.99!It was fairly easy to put together, and, unlike other bikes I’ve assembled, everything fit and came in perfect condition. The paint is gorgeous. It did cost me $45.00 to have it tuned-up at the local bike shop, but you should do this anyway for any bike with hand brakes and a dérailleur. Also, they made sure I’d put everything together properly. The Shimano shifter is great, and enables me to keep up with auto traffic till about 30-35 mph from a standing start. I took it on a ride of about 25 to 30 miles yesterday, and was very pleased. It’s not a bike for high speed, as due to the fenders, etc., it’s not very aerodynamic. But it will book when necessary. There are Schwinn’s with the same dérailleur & number of speeds ( 7 ) that are considerably…

Excellent Bike, Great Function, Eye Catching! I bought this bike for my wife to use at the beach as we cruise (almost daily around town).Setup:Not sure of the other reviewers issues. My bike came very well packaged, wrapped and protected. All parts were in perfect condition, not a scratch. Assembly took me less than an hour and I was moving slowly trying to do it while she was asleep so as to surprise her when she woke up. It was not complicated, fairly simple and I had no issues. It doesn’t require “professional assembly” as another reviewer stated, unless you aren’t at all mechanically inclined. As for adjustments; the manual tells you how to adjust the brakes and gears. This can’t be done until the bike and wheels are assembled, so again I’m not sure why people were commenting about this? It’s a very straightforward adjustment. I set mine and in 4 months it’s been perfect, no further work needed. Definitely didn’t need to pay a professional tune up.Bike Itself;Great bike, comfortable,…
