Performance

The squealing of the brakes as you stop can get to you, but if you ignore the noise, you will notice the powerful mechanical disc brakes bring the bike to a swift stop in all types of conditions. The Schwinn manual says the brakes need to be oiled and an initial alignment adjustment to function correctly. You could try that to see if the loud noise will go away.

The 21-speed Shimano EZ-Fire shifters and Shimano rear derailleur make it a breeze changing gears as you go uphill. The light aluminum fitness frame and rigid road suspension fork make the Circuit ride extremely smooth on paved roads.

This hybrid bike is also amazingly comfortable to use thanks to the handlebar, which is ergonomic and the cozy Schwinn fitness seat. The seat post does not need tools to adjust, so you can change your saddle position at any time while on the move.
