Schwinn Bonafide Men and Women Mountain Bike, Front Suspension, 24-Speed, 29-Inch Wheels, 17-Inch Aluminum Frame, Matte Black/Red

Got this for myself and my wife. Both are very happy.Requires assembly. If you are not comfortable doing it yourself, take it to a bike shop. For me, it was pretty simple to do myself.Gear shifting was precise out of the box - not sure if we got lucky or if it was tuned up before packaging, but the bottom line is I didn't have to take them to the bike shop for tune-up.

I have a hard time bike shopping. Being taller with really long legs makes finding a bike that is tall enough, with enough space from the handlebars to clear the knees, semi-challenging. This was a winner.One of the first things I would recommend is taking it to a bike shop after assembly for a "tune-up". It won't cost you much ($15-$20) and they can double check all the things you aren't an expert in adjusting. I feel like this saved me tons of potential future issues. Also fixed my chain slip issue by adjusting chain tension I assume.Overall this bike has been good for trail riding and riding around town. I added a rack to the back and carry baskets on either side for longer trail riding storage or shopping around town, works great.Also upgraded the pedals to these, I don't like my feet to slip off when it's wet/muddy: https://amzn.to/45zGnVuRack: https://amzn.to/3BXSDBABaskets: https://amzn.to/3BYduovHeadlight/horn: https://amzn.to/3IMRh0lWater bottle holder: https://amzn.to/3IP0iWH

Great out of the box for casual riding. I bought this bike and did a ton of modifications to it just because I like to tinker with anything I own. It's takes a bit of doing homework to modify as it's not up to date or par with the fancy shmancy stuff from today, but if you like to modify stuff it's kind of fun having to figure out what fits. Now that being said I wouldn't pay the 600 something they are asking now I payed around 300 bucks for it so it made sense to modify it. At 600 id probably get a cheaper specialized or giant or something along those lines. The bike is a good entry level bike reliable and Schwinn has always had great customer service.

IF YOU ENCOUNTER ISSUES WITH THE FRONT WHEEL HITTING YOUR FOOT OR PEDAL, YOU HAVE THE FORKS BACKWARDS!When I unpacked and assembled this bike, I saw that I was encountering the issue where the front wheel was extremely close and hitting my foot. After a little investigation, I saw that this was because the forks are reversed when shipping. Turn the forks around so the large U bracket is facing forward, and this solves the issue and is how the bike is intended to be assembled as per the manufacturer's pictures.Outside of this, I am a big guy, 6'2" and 330lbs so far this bike holds me up quite well, I am yet to do any major riding, but I wanted to make a note for everyone since I have seen multiple reviews showing that, but no one has posted a how-to correct this. Simple fix when assembled correctly; it's just not documented by the manufacturer. For the record, I wear a size 14 shoe and have ample space between my foot and the front wheel when turning, simple fix, to poor documentation.

In the 5 months we have had this we have had the front bearings and hub explode, the rear gear shift somehow bent inward while riding when shifting. Local bike shop can't figure it out and the cost of constant repairs is now added up to the point I'm throwing it in a dumpster. All of this riding on paved residential roads. DONT buy this bike, it's a complete POS.Adding to this review as it hit the dumpster after 9 months. The rear gear shift fails all the time bending inward and basically wrapping the chain around itself. The chain permanently twisted around it. This bike is an epic waste of money. Do not buy it at any price, if someone offers you one pay them 20 dollars to go away and take it with them, it will vost you less in the long run.

The bike looks great. Black and orange colors are very very cool, looks mean. 29" wheels are huge but very light weight. Took some time to figure out the disc brakes but once I figured out how it works, I was able to reseat (wasn't mounted correctly when arrived) and adjusted the power and now very assuring braking power. Seat hurt a lot so bought a new seat at Amazon. Bike is very fast at downhill. Worked nice on snow covered uphill but wished for one more low gear. Now I know why 27 speed is better than 24 speed. Even the frame is only 17" medium, it is big. I'm 6'. With 29" tires, even 17" frame feels like a very big bike. Very tall. Broke the chain after 4-5 uses on about 10 mile trail. Called the customer service (very very nice service by Sidney), short waiting, and new chain is on the way, covered by warranty. Can't wait to go out again because this bike is so good. Bought it from Amazon just before the price increased by about 10% so very happy. 2 months delivery at the time of order but was delivered in 3 week.
