Where to Buy
Reviews Great value, fun to ride by: on: 15-Nov 2009 I bought this thing for use on business trips. I didn't want to do the car carrier thing, and I am willing to ride something less substantial than my mountain bike when away from home. This thing is a hoot, and I feel that it is a great value for the price. Yes, the welds are big and ugly, but the rest of the finish is pretty nice. No, it doesn't ride with the same stability as a full size bike, and is a little skitterish on gravel. Yes, it's lighter than what some other reviewers implied, a couple pounds lighter than my MB. Yes, it folds very easily, certainly in less than a minute. I like the huge rack, very innovative design. And - my 11 yo son wouldn't give it back... The fact that the partner shipping this unit had a special coupon for free shipping was gravy. I like this bike a lot. Terrific Bike by: on: 05-Oct 2009 I am somewhat of a seasoned cyclist of 60 years and after owning one of these and putting a some miles on it, just had to write a review; I plan to purchase a second one soon for my partner. I was at first concerned about this bike being able to support my 230-240 lb body; I researched it a bit and the specs say it supports 300 lbs, so my weight has not been a problem. This bike rides very well and has low rolling resistance, good tires, great brakes and gears. It gets many looks on the bike trail and is basically a pleasure to own. Owning a PT Cruiser also, it folds readily and there is plenty of room for other cargo, including a second Schwinn Loop, is light weight and easy to lift in and out of the car. I did put a wider more comfortable saddle on it but that is the only change I have needed to make. Its a great traveler. I drive between Palm Springs and Ocean Park WA twice a year and use it to explore the bike trails on the overnight stops. Highly recommend. T. Johnson, Palm Springs, CA. over 50 WF by: on: 27-Jun 2009 This is a great little bike. I ride it to the gym about five times a week. Not far, but it does the job. I think the price is fair given what it offers. 7 speeds are just perfect. Easy to fold and I really like the frame construction. Easy for us females to get on and off. People are always asking me about it. I think Schwinn should be proud of this. Weighs about 28 lbs. Did need some gear adjustments when it arrived. And the cardboard box it's packed in is really scary. I couldn't believe it would be in one piece when I saw the condition of the box on my front doorstep. I find the 20" wheels easier to balance on than other folding bikes with smaller wheels. Nice! Take It To A Pro For Set-UP by: on: 22-Jun 2009 I was prepared to love this bike. Right now, I kind of like it. It is much heavier than you might think; heavier than my Trek 21 speed. The chain guard and fenders are plastic. It comes with a case, but you'd have to be an Olympic weight lifter to transfer the folded bike into the case. My gearing system needed a major adjustment when I received the bike. The manual says the bike is ready-to-ride immediately. It's not. The customer service people at Schwinn.com told me emphatically, by phone, that, in shipping, many bikes' derailleurs get out of adjustment. They directed me to an on-line, 100 page PDF manual that supposedly would instruct me on how to adjust the derailleur on the Loop. It does not. The bicycle mechanic, to whom I ultimately brought the Loop, pointed out a tear in the seat, and that the bracket that fits over the derailleur was bent. For my time, extra money, and frustration, I think I have what may be a very functional folding bike. The bicycle mechanic is a person I trust. The shop, though charging for repair services, trains young bicycle mechanics as its main focus. When he said that adjusting the derailleurs on this Schwinn Loop took a trained professional, I knew I was getting the straight scoop. View All ReviewsView All Folding Bikes |
