We had this bike for over a year and ride daily, mostly in our subdivision, and have not had to do any thing but fill air in the tires and adjust the brakes since first arrival. It arrive damaged in shipping. The plastic chain guard was broken and the crank arm and sprocket were bent. Pacific cycle sent the chain guard immediately and sent the wrong crank a month later. Never mind, I was able to bang the crank back into shape with a rubber hammer (made of soft aluminum apparently) and it rode fine. This bike is small and does not have gears. It takes more effort and goes slower than a larger wheeled bike. If you ride for excercise mostly as we do, this is not an issue. The smaller wheels make this bike smaller when folded which is handy expecially for folding a putting into the car. For the size of bike, it is heavy but still lighter than our 20" folding bike. Most people seem to like the appearance of this bike. The bike rack is sturdy and has proved quite useful carring small boxes home for the community mail boxes. The plastic fenders have worked well and do not seem to break easily. The folding is accomplished easily enough but there are opportunities to pinch oneself, especially with the pedal. The bag does make it easier to handle but is not worth bothering with when putting it in the back of the SUV. All in all we are happy with this bike and think it is a good value. -- Well built, fun to ride.
'm very happy with my folding Schwinn. It lives up to the Schwinn reputation. It's a bit haeavier than I thought but you get used to it. It's an all around winner. -- a very well made bike
