Schwinn Traxion Mountain Bike for Adult Men Women, 29-Inch Wheels, Full Suspension, 24-Speed Shimano Drivetrain, Trigger Shifter, 18-Inch Aluminum Frame, Mechanical Disc Brake, Matte Grey/Neon Green

The order stated 3 day shipping and it took 6 days, but more importantly FedEx delivered the box all tore up with bottom flaps wide open and the box of pedals lying on the ground outside of the main carton. The bike suffered several deep scratches that really bummed me out! I decided to live with it as I hate to send things back unless I have to. Other than that the bike is very nice at this price point and would have received 5 stars from me if it wasn't damaged, despite the slow arrival. It went together very easily, but did need rerouting of the cables which could not be completely untangled as well as some minor tuning. I also replaced the skinny rock hard seat with a super comfortable TONBUX seat that almost matches the color perfectly (best $20 I ever spent!). It rides like a dream on the rough dirt and rocky mountain roads near my house, the full suspension and big 29" tires really soak in the bumps, very smooth. I am very pleased with the overall performance of the bike so far, it shifts very quickly up and down and the disk brakes are strong. I am 5'9" tall / 185 lbs. and the bike has plenty of seat adjustment left, I would say it will handle up to a 6'2" rider, but not much shorter than 5'8" comfortably. I would highly recommend this bike to anyone that is NOT interested in hard core wide open down hill mountain trail riding. I am sure the bike can handle any trail at controlled speeds, but sustained high speed down hill mountain trail riding needs more bike than this, i.e. hydraulic brakes & better suspension, or in other words spending at least double or triple what this bike cost. At under $400 dollars it is a great bike. UPDATE: After several long rides on very rocky mountain roads and trails I just had to change my rating from 4 to 5 stars. This bike is that nice, and it didn't seem fair to down grade the rating due to slow poor FedEx service. 18 MONTH FOLLOW-UP: Loving this well made Schwinn! Have many miles of very hard riding on it now and it is holding up well. Zero issues and still functioning perfectly. There is a slight amount of seepage at the front forks but that is normal. I have just about worn out the tires but that is after a lot of miles, most of which were ridden on rough rocky roads with zero flats. Overall this bike is a winner. Well worth the current price. MARCH 30, 2021 UPDATE: Just purchased a 2nd Traxion for my wife; after she borrowed mine she had to have one. This one arrived in perfect condition via UPS. Had to fine tune the brakes and shifters but that is easy. The people here having pedal/crank problems are causing the problem themselves by installing them dry and severly over tightening them. Put a little grease on the threads and take them down to just beyond finger tight. They are threaded opposite of the crank rotation and will not back out, and if you ever need to replace them they'll come out easily without seizing or galling. Great bike for the money!

Cheap tires? Eggcellent overal bike!

I got this to replace a $100 super store special, and for the most part, it's been pretty good. Assembly wasn't difficult and took about 30 minutes. Bike was adjusted and ready to ride out of the box. While it has suspension components, it's a very basic suspension. The front forks are pretty soft and not adjustable. The rear suspension, while adjustable, doesn't really change the feel . I'm 5'9" and I feel the frame is a bit large for me. Tires feel like they lack some grip in the turns on soft surfaces, but I'm still dialing in my air pressure. The brakes do their job. The gears give a good spread of options. The front derailleur isn't the smoothest, but works. I've put about 50 miles on it doing a mix of dirt trail riding, small rock trails, small jumps and street/neighborhood riding and it's handled all of those environments well. I wouldn't attempt to use it on any very technical or steep segments as it's not built for those types of trails. My only real complaint is that there was a frequent clunk sound from the rear wheel/gear cassette area. Support was not very helpful and even with sending them video of the issue, they said I was improperly using the bike (letting it freewheel when not pedaling). They also kept blaming other components (derailleur, chain, petals), even when I showed them where the issue was. Once I got transferred over to a supervisor, they immediately sent out some new rear wheel parts and that took care of the issue. In short, don't expect it to be a high end bike, and it's not a $100 big box deal. It's decent if you're looking to upgrade from a beginner bike to something a bit more capable, without spending lots of money.

This is a great bike and comes a lot more assembled then I was expecting, I wish the front shock was adjustable but that’s my only plight. Shipping took a while but corona screwed up a lot more then shipping times for everyone so life happens, when it finally showed up I assembled it in about an hour making sure to check break and gear lines that were already adjusted almost perfectly then toor through a Northern California mountain trail, it’s perfectly responsive and the shock system is super good to my deteriorating knees for everything that I put it threw. It cruises so smooth and effortlessly on pavement and it’s large tires handle large rocks and other sketchy obstacles with ease. I was not nice to this on my first couple rides cause I needed to know if it can handle more serious trails in my area without throwing me off a cliff which happens to people a lot more often in my area then It should but that’s the risk of a lot of out door rec in a volcanic park. To some up this is the best bike I have ever owned and could easily go for more, for my time my money and my riding experience I would 100% recommend this awesome bike. The seat is awesome for a man and my boyfriend uses and enjoys it on his mountain bike but I have a female pelvis and it just doesn’t fit my body, no big deal I have a nice bike seat that’s transferred to the original seat most seamlessly

The bike arrived very fast and only a little assembly to do and very easy. The gears change very smoothly. It's a little heavy but I'm very satisfied !!!

Had bike for just over a month and gears don’t work proper and back wheel frame is bent and has a wobble. Thought getting a more expensive bike would be more durable but I was wrong. My 200 dollar Canadian Tire bike was better.

maybe a bit expensive but good simple bike. I ordered 2 and for one of them the front wheel was really untrue, I had to replace it (Amazon was amazing with this). unlike other bikes I purchased, I did not have to make any tuning/adjustments for the deralleurs - hope this won't jinx it. note: no water bottle holes.

Bike arrived yesterday, so I put it together last night, and attempted to ride it. The gears don't change properly, and the chain constantly runs on the chain guard. Tries to adjust the gears, but to no avail. I got it close but either the chain runs while pedalling l, or the gears don't move to the next sprocket when the trigger is pulled... I'm going to try again tonight after work, bit I'd like to talk to the seller a out this issue.... a brand new bike out of the box should change gears.... I think. On the plus side, it's a really nice looking bike... very frustrated with it though.... I sent this bike back, the customer service from both amazon and schwinn, were impeccable, so much so, that I'm going to order another one, and hope it's not defective. My fingers are crossed, and I'll post again when the next one comes.

The tires are missing some ball bearing and trying to put the tire on only results in a wobbly tire. Off to buy some ball bearings now... Grumble.
