Schwinn Suburban Mens Bike, 27.5-In 21 S

Unpackage the bike and throw the instructions directly in the garbage. They are useful only as a general overview on what needs to be done. They are NOT accurate to the model of the bike, and do not cover some incredibly important aspects of building it. Their youtube assembly video is just as useless. Refer to Park Tools' youtube videos for instructions.Bike seat - the tube faces the wrong way - loosen the nut on the right (looking at the bottom of the seat, pipe down) several turns until the teeth loosen enough to allow you to click the pipe towards you. Drop the seat onto the bike, and angle it so it is level to the pavement and retighten.Attaching the fender - do not use a screwdriver - use an alan wrench. The screws were attached too tightly to the frame, and you WILL strip them. Loosen with an alan wrench first, and be careful, you can strip them even with an alan wrench.The Caliper brakes will stop you from attaching the front tire, and are not mentioned in the instructions. Examine the spot where the wire connects the two sides of the brake calipers - you will notice a metal bracket captures a steel drum on the line, with a rubber dingy next to it. Pinch the calipers towards each other and pull the metal drum out to separate the brakes. Place your tire in. You will likely not be able to reattach the drum to the bracket of the calipers as the tire takes up too much space. Use your 5 hex wrench on the nut to the right to allow more tension. Be careful, on both of my bicycles, the wire caps were improperly crimped and fell off as soon as touched, leaving sharp, frayed metal wires exposed.I would not have purchased these bikes had I seen the instructions first.Update: (I had purchased 2) First bike right side pedal ripped out on 4th bike ride, the metal threading completely sheered out. Bike repair shop laughed and said it's not worth a repair.Update: 6th bike ride, second bike right side pedal ripped out, completely sheering the threading out. These bicycles should be considered single-use disposable products.
