Sports reviews of Schwinn Coronado Women's Comfort Bike (26-Inch Wheels)
Customer Review: A good buy!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
Frame & wheels are alum. Spokes are steel (not stainless as on more expensive bikes). Keep it dry & so what! Seat/saddle suspension compliance is 40mm(not tested). Front suspension is very basic, but functional. Handlebar is steel (not stainless) and associated parts allow considerable adjustment. Supplied tires are 26 x 1.95", knobby MTB tread; I replaced with 26x1.4" slicks for street-only riding. Color in clear sun is light blue (as in photos), not light green (as in description). Welds look good; overall workmanship looks good (made in Shenzhen, China). Finish on some parts is not as glossy as highest quality parts but has no functional effect.
Includes quick-release seat tube clamp, quick-release front wheel, welded bosses for water bottle & rear rack, provisions to mount fenders (fenders not included). Standover height at the point where top tube joins the curved brace to the seat tube: 23.5" with no rider with supplied tires. Weight: Approx 33lbs. The gearing is somewhat low as this bike is advertised as a mountain bike, not a street bike. However, unless you are riding very level ground you probably won't find this to be a problem.
Some notes for newbies:
1. Read the supplied Owner's Manual completely; it's a decent intro to bikes and as good as is supplied with other modern bikes. You can get more info from books, the Internet, or a local bike shop. Try these sites from among many: [...]; [...]
2. Rolling friction (energy losses) is related to total weight of bike and rider, not the bike alone. More weight deforms the tire more where it meets the ground. Smaller dia tires & higher pressure can reduce losses--but there are tradeoffs.
3. Almost all new bikes use metric hardware; you'll need metric wrenches (hex/Allen and adjustable or metric open/box), Philips screwdriver, and pliers to assemble & adjust the bike. Also, cables stretch, brake pads wear, etc.--therefore readjustment is needed from time to time for all bikes. Don't neglect cleanliness and lubrication. A new bike is unlikely to be fully adjusted just after assembly from the box.
4. Most riders will not be able to stand when positioned atop a correctly adjusted seat. Seats should be adjusted in relation to the pedals, not the ground! (See the Internet sites noted for tips on adjusting seats.) When you must stand, slide forward off the seat or completely dismount.
5. Don't forget to record your bike's serial number from the underside of the pedals-cranks assembly.
6. Security: Any bike can be stolen, in pieces if the thief wants it badly enough. A strong lock system is a deterrent, not absolute protection.
Update: Left pedal bearing failed in less than 10 miles. Otherwise, all okay.
