I am hoping to change this review from a 1 to a 4 or 5 depending on the speed of response and the level of service I receive from Schwinn.
I received the bike on Oct 3, 2020. On Oct 7, 2020, I registered the bike and sent a request for help to customer service.
During assembly, the seat post dropped down inside the frame. The post is shorter than the frame. So, you can not just pull it out. I turned the bike upside down and shook it… still stuck. I used a wire hanger with the tip bent to hook it from the inside and pull it out… It won’t budge. I sprayed WD-40 around the post… Still can not pull it out. I let it sit upside down overnight…. tried shaking it out, tried pulling it out with the hanger again, too…. Still stuck. No info or warning about this issue in the user guide or on the Schwinn website.
I don’t understand why the post would be designed short enough to drop all the way down inside the frame with no way to retrieve it. Or why they don’t install something inside the frame that would block it from dropping all the way down inside. HELP! I don’t know what to do!
I also have issues with the disk brakes rubbing and the user guide assembly info not matching the actual design of the bike. Plus, the pretty rich dark red color in the picture is not the same red that I actually received. Mine is a light shade of red.
I hope this matter is resolved quickly After waiting over a month to receive the bike, I’m hoping that I don’t have to wait another month before I can actually ride it. Despite my initial disappointment, it is a lovely bike.

I love the bike, actually light weight and a great around city bike that seems to be very accomplished for street and road use. If you don’t care for the feel of and actual road style bike this one should be right up your alley. Love it but I may go with a set of tires with a less aggressive tread pattern thst work well on road and dirt. Saving my bike with full suspension for trail riding. There are some bugs Schwinn needs to work out though. The front derailleur was really sloppy. Needed to be adjusted 3 times before it set right. But noticed I would have problems after a while with shifting. Set it up and readjusted the high and low set screws. They keep backing out with time. So a little locktite and they are fine now but it is a problem that should be looked at maybe some nuts to lock them in place from factory. Other than that I love the bike. Came early and was easier to assemble then my more expensive bike.. I would definitely buy it again but I might go with some aftermarket parts. Who knows where it will take me. And with the custom paint color it doesn’t get lost amonst others….

Always sceptical about buying a bike online without physically seeing it beforehand. This is very good quality, super easy to assemble just don’t expect it to turn up on time. The courier company this company uses is not reliable but that’s my only peeve. Bike itself deserved the 5 star review.

I was tired of buying bikes from Walmart only for them to break in a year, when my friend recommended me this brand, so I promptly bought it. Safe to say, it was a great choice. It was only a little difficult to assemble, but it works really nicely and is very reliable as I’ve been using it for awhile now in rough terrain. It is most certainly worth the money as I myself have had no problems with this bike, 10/10, would buy again

This is a great bike and we foresee many years of use. It’s sturdy and the individual pieces seem of high quality. My son has had it a few months and it’s been good so far.
However, as other reviews mentioned, this bike arrives only partially-assembled. You need some bike know-how and special tools to finish putting the bike together. The back wheel is not on, you need to put that on and figure out the gear assembly. Gear assembly needs some finessing to synch and may need additional adjustment to prevent it from catching or slipping. The front wheel was backwards and needed to be removed and flipped in order for the brake tread to work properly and safely. Even if the front wheel hadn’t been backwards, it would have still needed to be removed because the brake line was twisted through the frame and couldn’t work. If you didn’t flip the front wheel and correct the brake line, you would not be able to brake the bike.
Basically, it’s as if they showed the people handling the partial assembly a picture, but provided no instruction or training in how to put it together. The lack of instruction extends to the buyer as the ones in the box are very unclear. If you don’t know how a bike is supposed to work or have the right tools, you will NOT be able to do this yourself. If you know bikes and have a socket wrench set, budget at least an hour to correct and complete the assembly; if you don’t, budget at least $100 to have the local bike shop correct and complete the assembly.

I have been using the bike for over a month. I find it very reliable. I use it for road biking. I used to have a 24 speed 29” bike that gave me more speed and was more challenging. When I ordered this one, I was aware of the diminishing. However, this bike is challenging enough for me.
When it arrived, it required some assembling but nothing major. From the beginning and over three weeks the disk rotors (front and back) were rubbing some against the break pad. I assumed that of let alone the accumulation of rubbing would fix the problem itself. This is important because the rubbing creates friction and it holds you back when going up hill. Easy fix. Read the instructions on how to adjust disk brakes and do it. You will figure out easily.
I recommend this bike, especially to the bike enthusiast. Enjoy it.

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.
