Customer Reviews for Foldable Tricycle Adult 26'' Wheels Adult Tricycle 1-Speed 3 Wheel Bikes For Adults

I love the bike. One problem that people had said on website that the seat keeps sliding down which it does. May have to put a new piece over pole with screw to keep tight. The other issue I was very surprised at was that it cane in two different colors. I paid for an all red bike not half red half maroon.

I love my bike. I live in Florida and ride it most every day a couple miles. It is single speed so best used on fairly flat roads. Slight inclines are ok. Cons, the back bumpers are hard to get on right so they don't rub, mine has had to be adjusted. A friend put it together for me and if I were to buy it again I would have taken to a bike shop and had it assembled. I bought a different seat, but that is just my preference. The one it came with if fine. I also bought lights and a mirror. I am 78 years old, and riding is good for my legs.

I looked at a lot of tricycles online and decided this would be the best for the cost. I wasn’t willing to spend $1000 for a tricycle, and this had decent reviews so I decided to give it a try. I’m so glad I did. Is this a fancy bike? No… but it’s well made and functional for my needs. I spent a little more and got the white and silver one, but found that the navy blue and burgundy seemed to be the least expensive colors, typically 40-60 dollars less, sometimes more. My hubby put it together, with very little help from me, and while he is really handy and good at this sort of thing, there wasn’t any point of frustration. It took maybe an hour at most, from when we opened the box to when I was riding.

This bike (or trike) was fun to assemble and ride. It was carefully packed. With the help of Youtube and friend, we put this together in three hours. I expecially like this 7-speed version of this trike as it opens up a lot more paths and trails to me. "Fit and finish" are especially good for a moderately priced machine. There were no parts missing and its assembly was satisfying. Surprisingly this 78 year old rider could remember some bicycle mechanical skills from 6 decades ago.

So, I read the reviews and shopped around local bike shops and the internet. Who could go wrong with Amazon and the free shipping? I was concerned about UPS getting it to my home in a reasonable condition. Schwinn really needs to package this bike better, it's very heavy to ship and handle and we all know that they get thrown about in the process of shipment. When I pulled the bike from the Box, it had a few scratches on it due to the packaging falling apart in transit but it wasn't too bad.

Please consider getting this if you want a trike that's reliable and that you can sit back and have a relaxing cruise on, the quality is amazing, its sturdy and versatile, at least the version I got, the 7 speed gives you the option of either going on a relaxing cruise through the neighborhood or increase the speed if you want a great workout! The complaints I have about this trike are the instructions and the fenders, instructions are a little vague at some parts, they really expect you to be like a experienced engineer, I had to look online for clear unofficial instructions in how to build this beauty, and when Me and my father were done building it, we thought it was broken at first because the gear shifter was not working properly, turns out we didn't hook up the line that goes to the shifter to the gears themselves correctly, I'm glad we decided to look at the manual again because we both caught that something didn't look right. Last thing are the fenders, the fenders came in a little bent, not very much to be honest, I spotted it looking closely at them while screwing them on, can be easily fixed and bent back into shape with a hard surface and carefulness. !!And one last thing!! Get someone to help you build this, this is no one man job!! Overall, an amazing trike, even better that I got this on sale WITH monthly payments, hopefully you can get lucky too with the deal I got, but seeing the full price I would still say that this is worth it!

Delivery arrived in one rather heavy box. Took 20 minutes just to unpack and remove protective foam from all parts, which was OK because things were packed tightly together and all the padding helped. While I had assembled many bikes in my younger life, I haven't assembled a bike in over 25 years. I found the included instruction book and video on assembly on the Amazon site differ a bit from the actual fitment, parts, and tools needed for assembly. All that said it took this 70 year old about 3.5 hours of puzzling it out to put this bike together. Out of the box there was one missing part and one broken cable, but Pacific Cycle (who owns the Schwinn name and manufactures the bikes) Customer Service quickly supplied replacements within a week. Bottom line is my wife (73 years young, 5'4" tall) LOVES riding this 26" bike (this three speed version is perfect for her), and that's what this purchase was all about! If you have previous experience assembling bikes I believe you could handle putting this together, but if not I would recommend contacting a knowledgeable friend or a bike shop for assistance. Overall my wife and I would recommend this bike, but with the foregoing caveats.

What I liked: This Schwinn was ordered on Saturday and I received it two days later late morning. The price was very reasonable at $323, although I noticed today the price has been reduced to $307. It's still a great price for this very well built trike. The assembly was straightforward and all the parts were there, It took me about 3 hours to do the assembly. The trike rides well and I'll get more used to it in time. What I didn't like: It took a little extra time because two of the fender bolt holes (one on either side), were not tapped properly and the bolts were cross threaded. Fortunately I had a metric tap and die set for the 6 x .75 size and I was able to retap the bolt holes and recut the bolts so they would fit.

TLDR: I would recommend getting this bike -- regardless of size or ability.

Overall, I am impressed with this trike. Quality is great and the price was right. There are a couple of steps in the assembly that are in the wrong order, but if you have a little mechanical ability, you'll do fine putting it together. I was pleased that the brakes were so close to right out of the box. Recommend!
