I've been wanting a second bike for a while. In case something like this happens, and something made more for the road like a hybrid.

I know this bike isn't the best, but $300 ain't no chump change. I had a Schwinn Collegiate that lasted me for decades. I'm just a bit disappointed.

Free axel/ free wheel - huh? I don't understand. Maybe you can help me make a more informed decision if I decide to buy a second set of wheels.
