Overview

The Schwinn Destiny 24 Cruiser is a vintage model with cargo functionality designed for girls of 8+ years old. The bright color theme, simplicity, and reliability make it a wonderful option for daily school trips and beach cruising.

Who is this bike perfect for?

Are you looking for the first bike for your daughter? Or is it an upgrade that she’ll enjoy riding every day? Whatever is the case, this model is an optimal pick for 8+ years old riders with 4’8″-5’6″ height.

The 24” wheels are large enough to ensure smooth cycling, but Schwinn Destiny’s specialty is cruising along the coasts and beaches, following through bike paths, and riding among the streets.

Any girl will love using it to go to school or help her parents with daily tasks like going to the store thanks to the impressive cargo capacity.

The product comes with a limited lifetime warranty. This proves the fact that it is designed for everyday use.

When it comes to comfort, it’s hard to beat this girl’s cruiser. Thanks to the classic handlebar, you’ll be able to enjoy an upright position, which makes it a great choice for longer rides.

 

Performance

The swept-back rubber handlebars give it a better grip, while its adjustable height and angle allow the rider to find the perfect position.

Let’s not forget to mention that it is incredibly simple to pedal for hours. While the hills might require a bit more effort just because it comes with a single gear, riding the streets will always be a pleasurable experience.

Moreover, this bike is very easy to maintain. At only 40 pounds, it’s not a big deal to lift it to carry and give it a wash. The quick-release parts and front wheel will help you to finish the process even faster.

When servicing time comes, you’ll only need to clean and lubricate the chain, and it will be as good as new.

Conclusion

Whether your girl is a newbie cyclist or she needs a replacement for her smaller bike, this model proves to be a fantastic pick, especially at the price given. If she is somewhere between 4’8″ and 5’6″ high, you should consider this option for daily school trips or weekend fun.

Of course, it has no fancy disk brakes or complicated gear mechanisms. But the simplicity of the construction makes it more reliable and reduces the maintenance time required. Also, we should point out its vintage style once again. Everyone around will surely like it.

On top of that, its cargo functionality provides versatility. Finally, it is very lightweight, so it can be carried somewhere easily if need be.
