I have a Schwinn frontier FS 26" wheel ladies bike. I weigh 160 lbs I think it is 3 speeds, are these (742 training wheels) a good fit for me?

My husband weighs about 170 and he often plays with our son and rides my son's bike and the training wheels hold him up just fine. I think as long as you do not try going on rough terrain or be abusive, they would work just fine.

Over it would be great I'm 5'10 245 pounds and it still moves extremely fast with me on it. Although I'd recommend changing kick rode and brake/ clutch handles... also pay attention to how hot the bike gets get a thermostat.

Hello there... Your current tires are 26" diameter and will fit wheels between 1.5 - 1.75" wide. The Schwinn tires are 26" diameter and 1.95" wide and should fit your current wheel.I hope this helps!

These training wheels are model specific. If your handy with a welder you could modify it to fit, or you could try the manufacturer of your bike to see if they have training wheels. These particular training wheels mount over the foot pegs of the bike. You could also measure between your bikes foot pegs and talk to the seller to get the spacing and see if it would work for your bike.

Most old bicycles had 27' 1 1/4 wheels, but there were some 27' 1 3/8 that were Schwinn wheels and they took the 1 3/8 tires. I have used 27 1 1/4 wheels as replacement. Try to make certain you get a dual wall rims, and not a single wall, as the dual wall wheels are lighter and stronger for the road.

If you have 700c wheels order the tire size you normally ride or go be the rim wheel specs, they usually have a range. Sounds like you are already using 700 x 35 c tires. The smaller the number the less rolling resistance and the faster and more agile the tires, which translates the bike performance. Just want to warn you, these a German made clinchers and they are tight an a bit tough to put on initially but well worth the time and money. Good luck and RIDE ON..

Unless your girl is really tall this bike might be too big for a beginner- try out sizes at toys r us - training wheels are pretty standard and have a large gap in them to fit any bike - just have to remove the back wheel bolts, slide on the wheels and tightly secure the bolts back on.

I am 6'5" 250 so no problem fitting you, but I would look elsewhere for a good exercise bike. As I type this my wife is using it and it makes a knocking sound at every pedal stroke. I put it together very carefully and I would say this is worth half of the price. Also, pedals too wide for serious bikers.

I have a 70s schwinn roadbike as well...If you are referring to the fact that older bikes have a 125 mm rear fork spacing, rather than the newer, wider, forks, then yes, this wheel fit my bike without any adjustments. I have a 6-speed freewheel, it works just fine...I would assume a 5-speed would work too.

the wheels on this bike are 700c which is 29", so if you're judging the size by the wheels then yes, it is too big for you. I would suggest that you go to a bike shop and get fitted for a bike by someone that knows what they're doing. Even if you don't want to spend the money most high quality bikes cost, you will at least gain the knowledge you need to make a more informed decision when picking out a bike on your own, but whatever you decide, don't ever stop riding, you'll thank yourself later

Absolutely! The wheel slots are adjustable to fit even large bikes. I have an old Schwinn Traveler & it fits great! The only thing you might need to play with is if your bikes only have coaster brakes (like mine does), you might need to lift up the back wheels once the bikes are on the rack to get the pedals into the right position. Hope that helps!

Hi, I bought these wheels for my 71 Schwinn with a freewheel. I don't own a bike with a cassette, but I understand that this is completely different from a freewheel. I think that there are different models of rim with different hubs loaded for freewheels, fixies, and cassettes, so look for those. For my bike however, the LP18's are great. These are in fact some sort of aluminum alloy.

Yes, our Schwinn bikes are 21 speed and they fit. They were a little longer than the ones already on the bike but not enough to make a problem

Hello, Are you referring to your bike having 29" wheels? The 3 speed wheel kit is a 26" wheel, you will need to purchase the whole set. We do not sell the hub kit by itself without the wheels. Thank you.

57 for sure. I'm 5'11" 175, and it's a perfect fit. Plus I've heard rumor the 54 wheels hit the frame :/

Get the size 1, it will fit a bike up to 26." We used it on my son's 20-inch bike when we took off his training wheels, and it works perfectly. It was stiff at first, but you can spray a little WD40 on it (or any lubricant, I guess) and work it a few times, and the stiffness soon disappears.
