Ok... you are right about this one. A Schwinn World is not as heavy as a Continental, but, for $250, if you looked you could probably pick up a Schwinn Prelude, which is an example of an extremely nice road bike from the late 1980s.

So don't discount old Schwinns, but learn to be a little selective about them.
