Solid road bike. We got this for both my husband (6′1″) and myself (5′6″) and Schwinn Prelude Mens Road Bike fits fine for both of us. My seat is almost lowered all the way and his of course is higher. One of the front tires exploded in the first 2 minutes of the ride, so that was discouraging, but the others have held fine. Nice looking bike. Don’t forget to get a water bottle attachment!
very well. i bought this bike recently. it is a great bike and rides real smooth compared to older road bikes. the parts seem high quality and their easy to adjust if needed especially the brake calipers. it took me just a little bit to put it together, but thats because i took my time. if you purchase this bike you will not be disappointed. i haven’t rode a bike in years and one of the reasons was to get this bike was to help my diabetes. my first rode trip i was trying to take it easy and end up riding 14 miles. it felt really good i couldn’t wait for my next ride.
Great Entry Level Road Bike. About 7 months ago I was getting into road biking and thought this bike would be a great start. I am 5 10 and this bike fit me pretty well. The frame is a bit longer than other road bikes, but you will not notice the difference if this is your first bike. I have put about 500 miles on this bike and have had very minimal problems. The biggest downfall to this bike would be the lack of a quick release skewer on the rear wheel. This bike is a bit heavier than a more expensive entry level road bike, but again, is a great bike to start out on. I have stepped up to a Bianchi Nirone C2C, and this is now my campus cruiser. Highly recommended for a first road bike. If you are into biking though, I would step it up to the $700+ range.
