Finally got her out to verify the saddle height and setback late today, just for a quick little jaunt around the parking lot. The good:
1. She weighs 5 lbs. less than the pink Schwinn. Yes, I said FIVE lbs! That's huge.
2. The saddle has really long rails so I can have it all the way back as I need for my proportions to get the proper knee-over-pedal-spindle position. The Schwinn had really short little rails.
3. She's just plain fun to ride! I love this little bike - riding a single-speed, coaster-brake cruiser is truly like being a kid again.![]()
Took the pink bike back to Performance yesterday, and they were fine about the return. I did lose $31 in oversize shipping charges, which is not refunded. That's really my only complaint -- REI doesn't charge anything for shipping if you ship items to the store, but Performance does. Other than that, they were helpful and fine to deal with for the entire transaction.
