I ordered (2) bikes and still waiting for replacement parts so we can use one of them. The bikes have scratched paint and would appear damaged from shipping and yes the manufacturer should pack these better. Both units have scratches all over them in areas not affected by any possible damaged during shipment. The bikes are promising if you get past the imperfections and received the parts to use them under warranty. Schwinn has also been very attentive in trying to send replacements if they have them. I understand the low cost structure with the quality received. I'm glad my wife's bike is somewhat ok. I hope in the future to ride mine safely when and if the needed parts arrive. This is a good bike! But better customer care to products and warranty should be at the level of the desired purchase. I didn't expect a bigger price bike but at least one that works. Etc. Damaged wheel nuts, bent rim, bent and crack rear brake handle and cable, paint scratches everywhere.

Just received the bike in the mail today. The box was severely damaged (as noted by other people... I should have considered myself warned!) The bike itself was dented and scratched, but I am willing to overlook these things, as it will probably get scratched in the course of use. As we started to assemble the bike, I noted that the seat was missing. I called Target.com customer service and they said that they cannot do anything, I would have to contact Schwinn. I called them, and they were closed for an extended 4th of July weekend. So now I have a bike that is scratched, dented and that I cannot ride until I can contact their CS and they can ship me another seat (assuming they will!). I hate to spend another more price on a replacement seat in store due to their negligence, however I may have to. It is overall a beautiful bike and if one can find it pre-assembled in store, it is probably a good buy. Otherwise... AVOID!

I really wanted to love this bike, but it's been nothing but trouble for me. The chain falls off when I shift gears on an incline, the front brake cable slips out and you lose the front brake unexpectedly (imagine if it happened to both brakes at once!), and the seat squeaks as you ride it. I have had many bikes over the years, and this is the first one I've ever felt the need to return. It's as if the bike was tweaked when it arrived.
I have nothing against Target and wouldn't hesitate to purchase a bike from them again, the problem with this bike lies with either Schwinn or UPS. All I know is, it's a lemon.

First, I agree w/ Ameilia Walton, rate the bike, not the shipping. I actually ride the bike and it is a wonderful bike. I purchased this bike when Target offered FREE SHIPPING.

This bike is perfect for my needs. I wanted a bike with a few speeds, good brakes and one that I could sit upright on and carry a bag over my shoulder or back while riding around a campground. I also use this bike for riding around my neighborhood for exercise. I have had my bike for 2 weeks and have rode it almost everyday. No complaints.

I will also add that like a previous reviewer, my bike was delivered by UPS and came in a mangled box. One screw was missing(my husband had extras) and there was a few scratches(car touchup paint fixed). This is a delivery problem and not a bike problem.

My friend owns this bicycle and I've used it several times. It's very comfortable and just the right height for me (I'm 5'8"). Switching gears mid-ride can be a bit awkward if you're like me and not used to bikes with multiple gears. My friend told me that there were some superficial dents and scratches when she received it, but she didn't mind because she would have dinged it up herself anyway. She is very happy with her purchase, which makes me want to buy one for myself!

Yes, the box and packaging are not adequate but the bike was in very good condition (considering) and I'll give it four stars. A couple of screws and bolts were missing because of the big holes in the box, but we had what we needed in the garage. It's a nice heavy bike and the free shipping deal made it a good value.

It is inexpensive, so what can I expect? But the first gear does slip and won't stay in place. But since I don't ride it a whole lot, that is fine with me. Otherwise it is comfortable to ride and most other gears work. I didn't want anything more expensive incase it ever got stolen.

Very cool bike, with a great nostalgic look. With the FREE SHIPPING, it's also quite the bargain! UPS really banged up the box, but I'd have probably dinged the paint myself before too long . . . .

I purchased the bike with the free shipping and eventhough it arrived in a destroyed box and had a couple dings and nicks, it's a good bike for the right price. I just wanted to have something to cruise around on and that had some gears. I had to adjust a couple things and was issing some hardware, but it does its job and I'm pretty happy.
