Almost bought one, glad to see that someone else realizes that you do not have to spend a fortune on a new bike. Mine has around 1000 miles on it now, and looks and rides like the day
I bought it, with only a few cable adjustments. It was selling for 239.00 dollars, but we got
10 percent off due to my wifes Target card, and me pointing out a few (minor adjustments that were off)
, so another 10 percent if I would due them myself. The bike even fits me better
than the much pricer Motobecane I was riding, and with the narrow tires seems much faster.
It weighs in at 31 pounds, without the extras added....Enjoy your new bikes..
I just started thinking of all the accessories added and the cost, Topeak Rack 29.00 dollars, MtX trunk bag at
REI 80.00 dollas (installed for free), Bell Wireless Speedometer 20.00 ( has been working perfectly ), Bell
Torch Headlamp 20.00 dollars (Walmart), Schwinn Helmet 30.00 dollars Walmart, love the flashing light on the back, Planet Bike Micro pump, 18.00 dollars REI, spare tubes (2) 13.00 dollars REI, Presta to Shrader adapter and Presta extender 6.00 REI, patch kit REI ( do not remember price ), Schwinn water bottle and cage 10.00
dollars Walmart, another water bottle from Dicks Sporting Goods 8.00 dollars, That does not include the tools in the kit or frame bag, already had....Grand Total 239.00 Dollars, .. WOW .. Just some food for thought !
