Schwinn Sanctuary 7 Comfort Beach Cruiser Bike for Adult Women Men, 7-Speed Drivetrain in Retro-Styled Steel Step-Through or Step-Over Frame, 26-Inch Wheels, With Front & Rear Fenders, Rear Cargo Rack

This beach cruiser is a great bike. Has many pros and a few cons. I will start with Con’s.The obvious con, it is a bit expensive. But all I can say you will always pay for quality so anybody looking at this make sure you are ok with the price. So don’t sit here and complain about the price, if it’s not in your budget. Assembly is fairly simple but time consuming. So make sure you have time and some tools on hand. And last the handle bars feel some what small for the bike, only thing that feels a little cheap. That’s about it as far as cons which realistically not bad.Pros. If you are looking at this bike you are going to pay a pretty penny but you are getting quality. The bike is very sturdy. It looks flawless and it’s weight capacity is about 220 lbs but handles well over that. It rides very smooth and the seat is very comfortable. I have had this bike for about a month and it has been a great investment. Best of all, the looks you get while riding this classic bike is a well worth it.I hope this helps anybody that is debating to pull the trigger. I’m glad I did

The best looking and cheapest bike in my fleet. Instead of buying similar bike used you can find a great deal and buy it new. I own 4 bikes and I can comfortably work/build bikes. All my bikes are much higher performance for commuting and riding, but this bike catches most attention: bright red color overbuilt steel frame and most upright rider position. It does require some basic assembly skills: rim breaks calibration and fine-tuning the bike. The bike is very stable due to overbuilt frame 26 inch tires and long distance between wheels. This bike is good to ride a few blocks on a nice sunny day to a picnic. Ideal for 4-stoke gas kit installation.The product was packaged OK. I had a couple of bent fenders that was easy to unbent. Smoking deal for the price. I am 6 ft 1 and about 200 pounds and this bike fits me OK for the gas kit conversion and initial shiny look, but simplicity will make it last a while with some minimal adjustment.

Not a bad bike for the price, bought it mostly for the sweet looks & the rear rack. It rides just about how I expected, only more chill. Youre not winning any races on this thing but in style I’d say it’s pretty solid man. Look at this thing!Im fairly tall at 6 foot 3 so if you’re worried if it’s big enough for a man, don’t. Its feels good, just adjust the seat & the bars & you’re good too go. I plan to get better brake pads eventually but these work good enough. Over all it was worth it I’d say. You know get a little sun, a little blood pumping, get around your neighbor hood, go to the park. What else are we gonna do?

The instructions that come with the bike don’t match how the bike comes in the box. The breaks were already assembled and it’s a general instruction so you have to make sure you’re following the correct one. This only mattered because I had never built a bike before! My husband was able to help me and once it was together it’s an AMAZING bike! I’m loving it so far and the red is so perfect! It operates smoothly and the seat is really comfortable compared to “normal” bike seats. The grips on the handlebars are a bit more hard rubber than I like but overall it was well worth the price.

Schwinn used to be an American classic, now it’s just a waste of money in time. When I first got the bike, the gears attached to the pedals were wicked bent and I considered sending it back then, but was able to bend them back and get it working, very flimsy. The chain derailer wasn’t terrible to tune however, in the fourth and fifth gears, you could tell it was trying to shift up and down. The brakes were a mess because they were also warped and made a very poor metal. There was no way to get the front brakes and the back brakes exactly where they needed to be without bending them also. It aesthetically is pleasing, but after riding it for a few days the cheap metal was warping, and I had a tune it constantly. The bike suffered a malfunction when I was on 12 mile ride and I wiped out. There was no way to tune the breaks after that. I was unaware at the time, but the professional bike shops in my area don’t sell Schwinn anymore because of the poor quality. Wish I knew I had that knowledge before I bought it. If you want to get it for a wall piece or just to look at why not but it’s definitely not rideable. And if you’re a little bit older and prone to injury, especially stay away from it.

The shipping was very fast, it was in stock and I received it within 4 days!The finish is beautiful! The seat, while it does have springs, is still too firm for me so I'll probably invest in a gel cover.Changing the gears is easy with just a twist of the wrist, it engages solidly to the point of making a refunding "clunk" when you're gearing down (not up).Adjusting the brakes is a tad bit time consuming to get them adjusted properly. Just pour yourself a nice cup of tea, put on some relaxing music, pull up a view You Tube videos and you'll be right as rain! I would strongly suggest you put a but of rubbing alcohol on a rag and wiping down both sides of the front and back rims to clean them of any dirt or oil (particularly the front before assembly!) to help eliminate any brake squeaking. While your at it, you may want to consider giving the front brake pads a wipe while your at it, it's much easier to do Before you mount the front tire! IF your fronts brakes still squeak, you'll probably have to toe the front pads in a bit (again see You Tube) that parts not very difficult.Last but not least, learn from my silly mistake. When I unpacked the bike I cut the box in such a way that I lifted the box off the bike, and started assembling it straight away WITHOUT noticing that they turned the front fork backwards to get it to fit properly in the box! Be Sure that this label (apparently not quite obvious enough for some of us 😁 is facing towards the rear of the bike!Overall it's a very nice, sturdy bike that I am confident that I'll get years of use out of.I hope this helps someone!Cheers!
