This is the first bike I have bought for myself since 1986. My previous bike disappeared about 15 years ago and I have been without one since. I've gotten lazy and out of shape during the COVID era and decided I needed to do something to get active again before it's too late. I looked at a lot of bikes on Amazon trying to decide what to get, but this one managed to rise to the top based on features and price. I'm not going to be racing offroad or anything. I just wanted a basic bike suitable for riding around the neighborhood with perhaps the occasional excursion down a dirt road or path.
The features that attracted me were the aluminum frame with lighter claimed weight than most of the competition in this category, disk brakes front and rear, and front suspension. I would have liked both front and rear suspension, but they tend to get heavier in that category. I also figured the Schwinn name has been around for a long time, so that might be worth something. (Though it seems like most reputable brands of our youth have become just marketing tools for the same offshore goods as every other brand)
The box arrived in good condition...

Carbor Undium: El color coral no se aprecia bien en las fotografias del articulo, pero en persona, es casi fosforecente.
El armado fue sencillo, tarde como unos 45 minutos.
Lo mas complicado fue el manubrio, oues venia desalineado el eje y tuve que re alinearlo. La llanta delantera viene desensablada y fue facilisimo instalarla con su sistema de montaje y desmontaje rapido de la llanta.
El asiento no tuvo mayor problema en su instalacion, tambien fue muy sencillo.
Las llantas vienen sin aire, hay que ponerle entre 40-60 PSI.
El resultado es una muy buena bicicleta con frenos de disco delanteros y traseros asi como 21 velocidades.

Mary and Nathan: Update - Avoid like the plague if you want a decent bike that will last 10+ years, as this is a cheap road bike for beginners, not the Schwinn you remember.
Disclaimer: I received the product used (Amazon Warehouse) and it had clearly been used heavily and rewrapped. It appears to have been in a large crash (large scrapes on frame body, derailleurs, pedals, etc.). However, I took the opportunity to fully disassemble and reassemble the bike so that I could ensure it was safe to use, and this is what I found.
*********************************************
The BAD:
Crank Arms: These no-name crank arms are the cheapest quality aluminum you can get, yet also somehow godlike at holding onto the bottom bracket's square taper. After stripping the threads despite being meticulous with a crank arm puller, I tried three different methods of removal (pickle fork, hammer w/screwdriver, and a 3" gear puller) and was unable to make it budge. I've come to the conclusion that the only way to remove the crank arm is with a hacksaw. Well, the good news is the bottom bracket could still be removed despite the crank arm being stuck onto it. Replaced with a new...

Roach: I love this bike. I'm 5'1 and this bike is a perfect fit. The color is more of a hot pink but really nice. I found it very hard to assemble though and I even had to watch videos to help me. For someone who doesn't assemble bikes thr directions were not easy to follow and tge pictures were not very clear. Plus the directions were sometimes a little to vague. I wish Schwinn would put a assembly video for every kind of bike they have. With how much I spent I really didn't like that I scratched up a few spots. But now that my bike is put together I love the quality and durability.

Smudger: Bought this for my son. Looks really nice but came with a number of issues.
First of all the front inner tube's valve was leaking. Had to steal one from an old bike to get the tire inflated. Sent a couple of messages to Schwinn support looking for a replacement but, other than an automated reply have heard nothing in 3 weeks. Don't have the patience to call and be put on hold for however long.
Could not get the gears to work properly. Had a few sessions trying to get them to work but eventually had to take it to a professional to do... who, whilst fixing the gears also noted that the front forks were on backwards.
So, overall it is a nice looking bike and now it is setup it's great but it came with frustrating issues and cost another $100 to get it usable.

Kenny: This is a great bicycle for beginners. The assembly is not difficult as it comes mostly assembled, with the exceptions of the front wheel, seat, pedals and the hand bar. Pedals and seat are no sweat. The front wheel is of the quick release version and you need two person, one holding the wheel, the other lifting the bicycle, to have the front fork latch onto the wheel. It is not super difficult but not effortless either. Securing the hand bar in its position took three tries and two test rides to prove the failure of the first two. It is not a good design to depend on friction to hold its position as the bar can easily slip and rotate. The third time, I wrapped some electrical tape over the handbar where it is latched on. it seems work for now but I hope that it will last.
