Ladies Schwinn Roxie Cruiser Review
Ladies Schwinn Roxie Cruiser bike is a nice bike for the price. It absorbs shocks from the road well, and it picks up speed quickly. It makes a bit of chain noise in speeds 1 and 2 but gets quite in later speeds. The handle shifter is easier to use than the thumb shifters are. It shifts smoothly. The one coaster brake is easier to use than when there are two brakes to deal with. The seat is wide and comfortable. Overall, this is a nice bike for short rides around the neighborhood. I wouldn’t want to try it on a long ride as it is heavier than a road bike.
I wanted a vintage-looking bicycle. Upon searching Craigslist and Google, I found that most vintage/vintage-style bikes cost an arm and a leg! I lost hope for finding the perfect bike… but then I saw this bike in a Target ad and I was immediately attracted to the fun appearance and low price! I’ve had Schwinn Roxie Cruiser bike for about a month now and I am very happy with it! The cruiser brake is awesome, and it shifts smoothly. Very comfortable to ride, and in my opinion, is a great deal. It 
also shipped super fast!
I absolutely love this bike. I have gone everywhere on it. I love the color and how retro it is. I know finding a basket to fit will be a challenge, but I have plenty of space in the back to add whatever I need. I just wish it came with streamers for the handles. The only flaws I have found with the bike were the size (but I lowered the seat, and it is much better!), weight and paint (it chips easily if rubbed against a sharp edge). I would also like to attach a basket, but the design does not easily allow for that.
I don’t see one thing wrong with this bike. I ride every day the handle bars are perfect, the seat is comfortable, and it rides great. There are a few dents in the finders but who cares or sees them; it doesn’t change how the bike performs. So if you are thinking of buying this bike, do!
Schwinn is a good brand. If this bike fits you well (determined by test ride), then you will probably have many years of cruising enjoyment on it.
