A Great Value; Unadvertised Features,
This review is from: Schwinn Coronado Men's Comfort Bike (26-Inch Wheels) (Sports)
I was looking for an inexpensive second bike to keep at a house at the Jersey Shore. The price, the aluminum frame, Shwinn brand plus the free shipping definitely wooed me. However, the scant Amazon product description left a lot to be desired thus prompted a lot of internet research. There were no product reviews.
Alas, not much else was revealed about the bike's components or other details, including any Shwinn related web site. I took a chance and ordered it since this bike would only be for ocasional use. When it arrived, I was overwhelmed with the quality and fit and finish. Nearly all the parts are also made of aluminum: handle bars/stem, seat post, brake levers/calipers, kick stand, rims. Generally the OEM supplied seat is terrible. While not a "high end" gel set, it is in fact one and is definitely satisfactory. The deraileur system is Shimano and again not high end but it works well. The factory alignment was spot on and did not require any additional adjustments. Shifting is done via twist grips. I am not a fan of these but they work. Assembly was a tooless snap. Only the front wheel, handle bars and seat need be attached via the integral cam over latches. I spent a lot of time researching bicycles before deciding on this one. I cetainly recommend this bike for anyone looking for a first bike, or like me, just something nice to get around on. The value cannot be beat. All of this for under $200 delivered!

Great for my commute,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Schwinn Coronado Men's Comfort Bike (26-Inch Wheels) (Sports)
Bought this bike two months ago for a short (two and half mile with some stiff uphills), commute to work.
So far it's been a real workhorse, and of course I've fitted a lot of new stuff to it, (fenders, lights, back rack etc). My only issue so far has been a "stiff link" which was soon fixed by the local bike shop for the princely sum $5, other than that it hasn't put a foot wrong. It has been able to handle my 6'2" 245lb frame no problems, (actually started out at 263lbs, but that's just a nice side effect of the ride), and there is still some room for upward adjustment of the seat post and handlebars. The suspension, (which I had until now regarded as a gimmick), has enough give to level out most bumps in the road, as does the suspension on the seat post. But neither feels too loose with just the right amount of rigidity for control. The stock seat isn't the most comfortable in the world, (didn't expect it to be), but is easily replaced. As with any bike some assembly is required, but this should take someone with even the most basic mechanical aptitude and tool kit only about 30 minutes to an hour. (Have a good set of Allen wrenches available). Overall I'm very pleased with my purchase, and would recommend this bike wholeheartedly to a commuter or casual road rider.

Great Schwinn quality,

This review is from: Schwinn Coronado Men's Comfort Bike (26-Inch Wheels) (Sports)
This bike is lightweight, strong, has great gear control for the price. The seat wasn't as comfortable as I had hoped. However with a new seat all is well. Schwinn quality.
