I too have been intrigued with the novelty aspect of the Coasting system, and have been wanting to at least try it out just for kicks. Earlier this week I found this Schwinn ‘Sid’ at my local Performance bike shop marked down to $199. It was my size so I took it out for a spin. Fun, fun, fun.

I have absolutely no problem shifting normal gears, but the retro look combined with the novelty and smooth operation of the coasting system hooked me. Oh, that and the low price of course… I even got another %10 off with my club card! At $180 for a new Coasting bike in candy red I just couldn’t refuse!
