(More customer reviews)OK to start out I'm not an expert mountain biker. I've owned schwinn bikes since my paper route days some 25years ago, that said... I've been getting into mountain biking on a casual level for the last 17 years. I started with a Schwinn MP21(no suspension), and then moved to a Schwinn Mesa(front suspension), Now the Delta, I wanted to get into a soft tail without a huge price and for "classic/nostalgic" reasons I just always stick with schwinn. Didn't want to go with the walmart/target/kmart/big Box, mogoose, GMC etc......(yes I know my range was on the inexpensive side)
The box came with no problems, took me about 1.5hours to put together in my home office, (it may have taken me 30minutes but I was watching a Red Wings game). I have to say getting a soft tail is pretty sweet. I didn't realize how smooth a soft tail would feel over bumps. I am not going to radical; I'm just starting to get off "groomed" mountain bike trails in Michigan. This bike is similar to the Schwinn Rocket... mater a fact I don't know the differences, but I'm sure it may use heavier/cheaper components.... That said, the components have not been a problem, it shifts and stops fine for me. I figured for $270 to start was a really good price.... I have a thule big mouth rack, that I diffidently recommend... I'm 6'2" 240lbs so I guess I think its light to lift up and down off the roof rack.... At the time of purchase Amazon only had the LG frame available which I think is the 19"... if they would have had the XL I would have purchased that... but I have not felt off balance on the LG frame, just hiked up the seat... i was kind of surprised the seat is great for me.....i thought i'd have to get a more comfortable seat
I've owned it for about a month and a half now, and planning a trip to boyne mountain(ski resort) this week to try it out on the dirt slopes.... Well Cheers!! To the Schwinn Delta!! I recommend it!!........
