I was looking for a bike with some sort of help when climbing hills and imagine my delight on finding this Schwinn electric bike posted on Amazon. I read the reviews which seemed excellent but nothing prepared me when I received the shipment that this bike was strictly a young boy's bike - I should have known that 20" wheels were not for my size but it sounded such a great deal, if I had been a midget it would have been!! Also, who would ever think of giving a young kid an electric bike. The worse thing is that it would cost me as much to ship it back to the makers for what I paid for it so I am stuck with it. I told the manufacturers they should make an adult version which I think would sell like hot cakes in this gas guzzling society.ME.
