 Great Inexpensive Bike!! July 8, 2008

It's been about a month since I purchased my Schwinn Coronado and I'm loving it. Due to the high price of gas I'm now riding my new Schwinn Coronado 14 miles back and forth to work on a light gravel bike trail (It's also very comfortable road performing bike). The bike was delivered to me packaged with care and with a total cost of less than $240 for the bike (which included the free shipping) how can you go wrong. So far, so good... I'm a happy Amazon / Schwinn customer.

I ordered the bike on Monday and requested the next day shipping offer, which stated the bike would arrive on Tuesday. It did not. It did come the next day. My husband was out of town, so I set out assemble it by myself. (I am an older lady with no special experience in assembling bicycles.) The bicycle appeared to be in good shape, no bent or scratched items and all the parts were there. However, the white reflector for the front and the red reflector for the back had already been attached and the attachments for both were broken. What took the longest was my digging through my husband's tool box trying to find something that would work since he did not have an allen wrench the right size. The instructions were written for a multitude of bicycles. It was a little confusing which instructions that I should use. It would have been helpful if they had included a sheet on my bike, just saying "This is the bike you have, this is what it has. When assembing the handle bars refer to Handle bar Instructions #1 B. When assembing the front wheel refer to Front Wheel Assembley instructions #3 A, etc." In reality you get an instruction book that says "To assemble the handle bars, do steps 1, 2 and 3. Just as you are processing those instructions, the next line reads "Some models have a so-in-so, in which case you have to do this-and-that." Which makes you have to evaluate your bike to determine just what you have and which instructions to use. This was the case with the handle bars, the seat, and the front wheel. At any rate, after getting it unpacked I was making my first trip arownd the yard in about and hour and a half. It seems very comfortable and was very easy to pedal, even accross the grass. It should be a breeze on a paved bike path, even for a little old lady who has not ridden a bicycle in over 40 years.
A good buy! April 2, 2010

Frame & wheels are alum. Spokes are steel (not stainless as on more expensive bikes). Keep it dry & so what! Seat/saddle suspension compliance is 40mm(not tested). Front suspension is very basic, but functional. Handlebar is steel (not stainless) and associated parts allow considerable adjustment. Supplied tires are 26 x 1.95", knobby MTB tread; I replaced with 26x1.4" slicks for street-only riding. Color in clear sun is light blue (as in photos), not light green (as in description). Welds look good; overall workmanship looks good (made in Shenzhen, China). Finish on some parts is not as glossy as highest quality parts but has no functional effect.
Includes quick-release seat tube clamp, quick-release front wheel, welded bosses for water bottle & rear rack, provisions to mount fenders (fenders not included). Standover height at the point where top tube joins the curved brace to the seat tube: 23.5" with no rider with supplied tires. Weight: Approx 33lbs. The gearing is somewhat low as this bike is advertised as a mountain bike, not a street bike. However, unless you are riding very level ground you probably won't find this to be a problem.
Some notes for newbies:
1. Read the supplied Owner's Manual completely; it's a decent intro to bikes and as good as is supplied with other modern bikes. You can get more info from books, the Internet, or a local bike shop. Try these sites from among many: [...]; [...]
2. Rolling friction (energy losses) is related to total weight of bike and rider, not the bike alone. More weight deforms the tire more where it meets the ground. Smaller dia tires & higher pressure can reduce losses--but there are tradeoffs.
3. Almost all new bikes use metric hardware; you'll need metric wrenches (hex/Allen and adjustable or metric open/box), Philips screwdriver, and pliers to assemble & adjust the bike. Also, cables stretch, brake pads wear, etc.--therefore readjustment is needed from time to time for all bikes. Don't neglect cleanliness and lubrication. A new bike is unlikely to be fully adjusted just after assembly from the box.
4. Most riders will not be able to stand when positioned atop a correctly adjusted seat. Seats should be adjusted in relation to the pedals, not the ground! (See the Internet sites noted for tips on adjusting seats.) When you must stand, slide forward off the seat or completely dismount.
5. Don't forget to record your bike's serial number from the underside of the pedals-cranks assembly.
6. Security: Any bike can be stolen, in pieces if the thief wants it badly enough. A strong lock system is a deterrent, not absolute protection.
Update: Left pedal bearing failed in less than 10 miles. Otherwise, all okay.

I give 5 stars for the bicycle, which turned out to be very good. I would give 2 stars if I was factoring in the instructions, which were very frustrating. It took over an hour to complete the assembly which should have taken 15 minutes if the instructions were better written.

I bought this bike as a gift for my daughter and she loves it. My son-in-law said it was easy to assemble. Daughter said it is easy to ride.
