It has a large, foldable basket that’s great for carrying bags of groceries or hauling anything else you might need. You can choose from a wide range of colors, including red, black cherry and periwinkle blue. It’s available in a choice of 24- or 26-inch wheel sizes, which is great for riders of all heights.
Linear-pull brakes are a type of brake typically found on bicycles. They work by pulling on two pads that press against the rim of the wheel, slowing the bike down. Schwinn is a trusted name in the bicycling industry, so you can be confident that this bike will provide a smooth ride. Check first the tightness of the two hold-down screws on the rear axle drive sprocket.
This Limited Warranty covers any defects in material or workmanship under normal use during the Warranty Period. The rider and cargo combined should be up to 300 lbs for the 24- model and up to 350 lbs for the 26- model. The Schwinn Meridian high handlebars allow the rider to remain upright while riding. This reduces stress on your wrists and keeps the handlebars from bearing too much weight. Both models are suitable for riders between 5’4- and 6’2- tall.
Sometimes these work loose, especially during the break-in period (first 500 miles). Symptom of these screws coming loose is sprocket clatter, chain skipping, and eventually you lose all drive tension (your pedals will spin and the chains move around but you won’t go anywhere). Be sure to check that Schwinn Meridian the rear axle drive sprocket and secondary (short) chain are put back in alignment with the center sprocket off the transfer shaft before tightening the hold-down screws. Tighten these two screws down as hard as you can — this connection point takes a lot of stress, especially on uphill grinds.
If you need to tackle a range of gradients on your route, this seven-speed tricycle is the ideal option, making lighter work of hills. The spacious cargo basket has a solid base and can fold when not in use. Like the three-speed model, it’s only available in a 26-inch wheel size. For better or for worse, adult tricycles stand out in the crowd, so you might as well choose a color that you love to complete the look. Schwinn adult tricycles are available in a range of colors — some bold, like bright red, and some with a cool vintage appeal, such as mint green and periwinkle blue. Not all types of Schwinn tricycles are available in every color, so your color choices may be limited by the number of speeds or wheel size you require.
One of the biggest advantages of Schwinn Meridian is the large folding basket. Great for picnics, storing groceries or carrying water, food, extra clothes or even a small sized dog. And when you don`t need it, just collapse it to provide a flat “bed”.
