Schwinn Sanctuary 7 Cruiser Bike, 26 Inch Bike for Women and Men, 7-Speed Beach Cruiser Bicycle, Linear Pull Brakes, Comfortable Padded Seat, Upright Riding Position, Adult Bicycle

This beach cruiser is a great bike. Has many pros and a few cons. I will start with Con’s. The obvious con, it is a bit expensive. But all I can say you will always pay for quality so anybody looking at this make sure you are ok with the price. So don’t sit here and complain about the price, if it’s not in your budget. Assembly is fairly simple but time consuming. So make sure you have time and some tools on hand. And last the handle bars feel some what small for the bike, only thing that feels a little cheap. That’s about it as far as cons which realistically not bad. Pros. If you are looking at this bike you are going to pay a pretty penny but you are getting quality. The bike is very sturdy. It looks flawless and it’s weight capacity is about 220 lbs but handles well over that. It rides very smooth and the seat is very comfortable. I have had this bike for about a month and it has been a great investment. Best of all, the looks you get while riding this classic bike is a well worth it. I hope this helps anybody that is debating to pull the trigger. I’m glad I did

3 months update - still doing good :) no issues, put lights all over if for safety, have not adjusted anything! I would buy again if needed. new seat is all its needed if you want softer. I added a basket that ruined front logo, so be careful on baskets. 1 week update - I got lucky and paid $95 on sale. so price now went up double. so I guess I got it after summer sale. great bike, no issues. new seat is great and I put lights all over for safety. If you are wondering to get 3 speed or this 7 speed, the 3 speeds are in this 7 speed are the high , low and middle. the extra ones do not help so much more. so 3 works too, but it is nice to have 7 but did not know that until I tested mine against a 3 speed. Great bike and price... but why is price going down ? idk... one day review- put it together in a few hours mainly because I am a little rusty building bikes.this bike comes almost together. The front brakes are the toughest but if you follow directions closely it will not be a problem, back ones are set up already. I will get new handle bars which are the larger cruiser type. and maybe new seat. Lights all over for safety. everything was all perfect. I made two scratches building it, one flipping it over to put front tire on I hit back rack. and putting on seat I did not use a ratchet, using a Allen wrench should not be used since its tight area :) It is faster then a 3 speed coaster brakes type for sure. This is a one day review, if any updates I will add.

I love this bike, it looks awesome and I love that I can put a basket on the back BUT there's some issues. It took me 3 hours and a lot of tears to put this together because the directions are horrible and there's no good videos out there. I couldn't get the handle bar in, eventually found a video showing to take the bottom piece off and stick that down the tube then the handle bars. One of the peddles wouldn't twist on and I almost went and bought new ones but got lucky my last try and finally got it to thread into the hole. I cannot get the seat and handles bars tight enough. I'm constantly tightening them and one day the seat completely fell off and the metal pipe holding it fell far into the tube and I had to get pliers to pull it out, not easy and glad this happened before I left the driveway. Main issue is the brakes. A lot of adjusting is needed, I still haven't perfected it and I think I'm just going to have a pro look at it. The brakes rub on the tires and it's just been progressively getting worse as I ride, not sure why it's getting worse probably screws loosening up. Directions need to be better and I shouldn't have this big of a problem with the brakes . I would not recommend getting if you're not ready to do some tweaking to it

The instructions that come with the bike don’t match how the bike comes in the box. The breaks were already assembled and it’s a general instruction so you have to make sure you’re following the correct one. This only mattered because I had never built a bike before! My husband was able to help me and once it was together it’s an AMAZING bike! I’m loving it so far and the red is so perfect! It operates smoothly and the seat is really comfortable compared to “normal” bike seats. The grips on the handlebars are a bit more hard rubber than I like but overall it was well worth the price.

It’s a beautiful looking bike but the instructions and the assembly was AWFUL! The front breaks were too tight to get the front wheel on. When we finally got it on the the front breaks are still too tight for the front wheel to even spin. I wouldn’t get it again.

I am a 78 yr old lady. If I can put it together (which I did) so can you, ladies. I couldn't wait to ride it today after I tightened the last bolt. Much to my dismay, it is a tad too big for me. I am 5'3" and I really should have gotten the small size. This one is a medium. But, talk about a gorgeous bike, this is it. It took a bit to put it together but it was mostly already done. Once I figured out that the nuts, washers and bolts are already attached, it went faster. The only difficult thing was that I had to remove the front brake system to put the front wheel on. I don't have it exactly like I want it but it's close enough to ride. After some of the reviews I had read, I was a little intimidated but as it turned out, I was quite surprised that the bike arrived without a hitch and without any scuffs or damage of any kind. I wish Amazon still had it I would order a small and sell this one.

This bike is very pretty, but it is soo heavy. I followed every single step on the manual, but the front fender it is still loose. Don’t know why but as side of that it rides good. *** update*** On my first ride out, the derailleur broke. Had to get it replaced. It cost $60.00!!
