So how is it that you can tell that the Schwinn is a junker?

I'm mostly going to ride on the road. But I would probably ride offroad some. However, I have a crappy mtb already and I really would like to get a descent, bargain road bike to try it out. After searching craigslist for bikes, I've become intrigued by road bikes. I initially only wanted a hybrid or a rigid or hard-tail mtb.
