Im hoping to get a new bike, its a schwinn from *gasp* target........
if I get it, i am going to assemble it myself and was wondering what i may need to look for. I know the basics, like checking the bb and headset, etc, adjust the derailers, and brakes, anad some new tubes and rim tape.......anything else come to mind?
And I know this is bike forums, and the disdain for big box bikes is sometimes hard to overcome, but this one is in my budget and it got some good reviews, from many outlets. No hard riding, just some MUP and some bike lane fitness riding. So can we please avoid the "it's junk and will fail at 10 miles" stuff please? pretty please?
its this one :
