I had no idea who, where and how my bike is built until only about a few months ago. Did this change my mind about my Fastback? NO! The bike is a very good and durable bike. I paid approx 3 times more than the above varsity but its worth every penny I paid for. Its been reliable, smooth riding and fast.
I checked other brands before purchasing the Schwinn. For the same price I paid I can get a bike that has lower end components. For bikes with the same components I have to pay $$+ more. I am not the least bit sorry for my purchase.
