I got my Schwinn Wayfarer bike. It came in a box. It came perfect, box in good shape, everything in new, nice condition; no scratches, nothing bend. I could get the discover bike, but I don't like the threadless headset nor the seat tube with shock absorber.The bike rides nice and smooth like some people has said. It is ideal for folks like me with back problems and those who want to ride a little faster than in a beach cruiser.It took about one hour to assemble, but I got experience working in my dad store. These bikes are better assembled with somebody who knows how to do it. They are not elite bicycles and they are not perfect. They are for people who want to have fun and not break the bank.The spokes are stainless steel, mud guards are made of aluminium, so they should be corrosion free. The paint job is well done. Mine is navy blue, almost black. The tires are good for the price of the bike.There are three things that I don't like: 1. The seat. Change it asap. I've had about ten bicycles in my life and had to change the seats no matter the cost of the bike. 2. The stem. It is the uglier of them all. So far it is tighted to the fork. Shame on Schwinn for those cheap made stems. 3. The derailleur. I had problems with a beach cruiser with same derailleur. Broke the second time I rode the bike. Same problem getting entangled in the spokes. I believe it is a lottery with them. I got two cheap mountain bikes with same derailleurs , and they've been working for about ten years without any breaks.In conclusion, I love the bike for what it is. If you want a much better bike be ready to spend some thousands for a "perfect" one. I recomend the wayfarer and I am happy with it.

A couple months after buying this, I crashed it on the side of the road. The bike was fine and I had no issues with it later on. You will need some allen wrenches for assembly, which are not included, so keep that in mind. If I have one major criticism, it’s that the steel frame makes it a fair bit heavier than other bikes this size, so don’t expect to win any races with this, but that might actually be a plus when it comes to exercise.

La horquilla de la llanta delantera está completamente defectuosa. Mide aprox. 7 cm; por lo tanto, la llanta delantera no entra. Los rayos del rin traseros están golpeados y sueltos. La salpicadera trasera roza con la llanta. Al intentar hacer el reembolso me cobran al rededor de $2500 por el envío. Pésimo servicio y mala calidad del producto

La uso diario para ir al trabajo y me ha resultado una excelente bicicleta. Al no tener suspensión puede llegar a "saltar" un poco en calles mal pavimentadas, pero le doy 5 estrellas ya que ese diseño clásico, tener 7 velocidades y una parrilla para cargar cosas, por ese precio, no lo encontré en con otras marcas.

es perfecta para recorrer la ciudad diariamente, yo la uso para ir y venir del trabajo y no se siente pesada ademas de que tiene el tamaño perfecto para alguien alto (mido 1.85), 100% recomendada

I am really happy with this bike. The price, the quality, the shipping- everything. The bike was very easy to put together. Mine did not have any damage that I’ve noticed. I’ve used a hybrid for years to get around town and commute to work and decided to try the upright cruiser style. The style of the wayfarer is clean and classic. To outfit my old bike with fenders, a rear rack and kickstand was well over a hundred bucks- this bike is ready to go- I slapped on my Thule basket for my work gear and I’m good to go. Maybe it’s my age(45) but I really enjoy the upright sitting position. I won’t be winning any races but I’ve chosen comfort of speed. What’s with the rush anyway? I highly recommend this bike.

Excelente bicicleta a un buen precio

Estaba indeciso en comprar la bicicleta ya qué hay más ofertas en el mercado, pero finalmente me decidí por esta bicicleta! Llego de un día para otro, me llego en un caja y venia desarmada, cosa que no hubo problema, la lleve a que me la armarán en un taller de bicicletas y me cobraron $50 armarla. El material de la bicicleta es de muy buena calidad, me quedo justo a la medida, mido 1.82cm, es muy liviana y agarra muy buena velocidad! Sin duda una excelente compra, es una excelente inversión.

Me llegó en tiempo, en una caja, la armé yo mismo, no se necesita mucha herramiento para hacerlo y está fácil, ya la usé por cuatro meses, la uso diario para mis trayectos al trabajo y recorro unos 12 km de ida y 12 de vuelta, temía que esto la fuera a desgastar rápido pero no, todo está perfecto. Buen material, peso ligero, estéticamente bien. Estoy bastante satisfecho.

I've rode this for about 30km now. It arrived well packed and undamaged. Previous comments about damage on arrival is likely due to the shipping/courier company mishandling it.Out of the box it was easy to put together. The only issue is the derailleur has a slight twist in it, making adjustments difficult. The derailleur itself is Shamano, not Schwinn like others have had issues with. One other negative I would say would be the right handle grip. It's shorter than the left or standard ones, so I would guess it would be difficult to replace. The shifter itself is a bit clunky, but it doesn't bother me.The bike overall rides great. I'm happy with the gear ratio for what I require. Would be nice if the seat had more cushion. Looks sharp with the black and chrome. Overall I would recommend it.

I just finished assembling this bike and took it for a spin around the neighborhood. I have to say this bike exceeded my expectations in most every respect.Let me start by saying that this the ninth bicycle in my current stable and the least expensive by far; I have owned dozens of bikes over the years. Two of my current bikes cost over $3k. I have been a bike geek my entire life and worked as a professional bike mechanic in younger years. I feel as though I have a good perspective from which to judge bicycle quality. I was attracted to this bike's apparent value and traditional styling, and I was not disappointed.The bike is a steel frame, seven speed derailleur bicycle with an upright riding position. It has no-name components, except the Shimano derailleur and freewheel. Cost-saving parts include an Ashtabula (one piece cast steel) crank and chainring, a steel seatpost and seat clamp, and steel handlebars. The generic quill stem, rims, hubs, linear-pull brakes, and brake levers are aluminum alloy. The Shimano derailleur appears to be stamped steel, though I haven't confirmed for sure. The included rack is also chromed steel. The sturdy fenders appear to be brushed aluminum with steel brackets. Even with these heavy steel components, the bike does not feel particularly heavy. The steel frame is cleanly welded, with standard diameter tubing on all except a slightly oversized downtube. It has a nice looking paint job and even has some subtle pinstriping and lettering on the top of the top tube. The front wheel has a quick release, while the rear hub is bolt-on.Although they call this a hybrid bicycle, to me it seems to be a classic English touring bike, right down to the coil spring seat and swept-back handlebars. The seven speed gearing covers a moderate range, adequate for flat to moderately hilly terrain. Don't expect mountain bike gearing. The freewheel is 14-28 teeth, not a super-wide range but adequate for casual cycling on paved roads or firmly packed trails. I didn't count the chainring teeth. The only nod to hybrid elements is a slightly sloping top tube which belies the frame's more modern origins. Otherwise the layout and ride is very much like English touring bikes of the 1960's and 1970's (think black Raleigh three speed, but with some alloy updates).The bike was easily assembled, but there were a few adjustments needed that might befuddle or elude someone without experience. The bottom bracket bearings were way too tight, the headset was slightly loose, the front wheel need some minor truing, and the linear-pull brakes needed some typical adjustments - centering, adjusting brake pad alignment, cable tension. In contrast, the gearing and hubs on my unit needed no adjustments out of the box. If you do not have experience assembling bicycles, I recommend paying a professional to assemble the bike for it to reach its full potential. The brakes feel mushy compared to modern high quality hydraulic disc brakes, but once properly adjusted they had no difficulty locking up the rear wheel or quickly stopping the bike. In this price range I think the brakes are above average. The grip-shift, seven-speed gearing was crisp and quiet.Once assembled, the bike has a solid, smooth, quiet ride, if somewhat "vintage" in its feel. The riding position is very upright with just some very slight forward lean. There is not a lot of space between the seat and the backswept handlebars, which is fine if you are not expecting a racing position. The bike seems to encourage taking one's time and looking around to enjoy the ride. It feels efficient, and secure though not what I would call "nimble." I think this would make a great bike for a college campus, paved trails, and urban commuting for short to moderate distances. That said, I have seen people ride all kinds of bikes on all kinds of surfaces and terrain.I am 6' 0" tall and weigh 195 pounds. The bike was very comfortable for me, and I have the bike in about the middle of its height adjustment range. I estimate the bike would be suitable for people around 5'9" to 6' 2" with adjustments to the stem and seat height. Stored with reasonable protection from the weather, and basic regular maintenance (adjustment, air in the tires, regular lubing the chain and pivot points), this bike should last many, many years.
