(More customer reviews)People who know about bikes know that the Schwinn Sumac is not a department store bike. In fact, this bike is identical to the Schwinn Mesa GSD except for the paint colors. The Schwinn Sumac is a A-list bike with premium components, again all identical to a bike whose price is more than triple that of the Sumac. Check for yourself at BikePedia.com. Every component and part number match up exactly.
This bike comes completely set up right out of the box - and packaged very well, by the way. Install the front wheel, handlebars and pedals and that's pretty much it. The front and rear disc brakes are already adjusted. The front and rear derailleurs are perfectly in sync. Ride the bike and feel the fine-tuned ride this bike provides.
The shifters are absolutely top-notch. A flick of the thumb and the derailleurs snap into gear; no slipping, no grinding - it's one satisfying click. The disc brakes are such a nice touch, and work so well. I defy anyone to find a bike with front and rear discs anywhere near this price. Good luck.
One word of caution: this bike only comes in medium frame size, intended for riders 5'6" to 5'10". They're not kidding. I'm 5'10" and I fill this frame up to the max. The seat post is almost all the way up and I can just barely extend my leg. Keep this in mind before deciding on this one. But if you're in that height range, there is no better choice.
