Hello CSam49, I'm sorry to hear about your troubles with the Schwinn (as I am a vintage steel fan), but when your back says 'no', it means 'no'...
The Clydesdales/Athenas forum may be able to give you a 'heads up', so I would check them out, and then perhaps the General Cycling Discussion forum.
Welcome to BF, and good luck!
East Hill
