The 3-speed Coffee and Willy are often sold out and no eta for new shipments. Single speed Coffee's is what most people see at an LBS, if they carry the Schwinn brand.

If Schwinn or some other company can add a 7 to 8-speed IGH around the same price point or a bit higher, then you would have a modern update to the classic 3-speed with more than enough gearing and low maintenance for today's consumer. Or add a double to the Willy for more gear selection.

That being said, the majority I see riding bikes are using MTN, Cruiser, and even BMX bikes to get around. Bike use has increased notably due to the high cost of gas but so has bike thief. So I suppose it depends on where you live and how far one has to go to work or find work if bike traffic has increased or decreased.
