Customer Reviews for Foldable Tricycle Adult 24'' Wheels Adult Tricycle 1-Speed 3 Wheel Bikes For Adults

This bike (or trike) was fun to assemble and ride. It was carefully packed. With the help of Youtube and friend, we put this together in three hours. I expecially like this 7-speed version of this trike as it opens up a lot more paths and trails to me. "Fit and finish" are especially good for a moderately priced machine. There were no parts missing and its assembly was satisfying. Surprisingly this 78 year old rider could remember some bicycle mechanical skills from 6 decades ago.

So, I read the reviews and shopped around local bike shops and the internet. Who could go wrong with Amazon and the free shipping? I was concerned about UPS getting it to my home in a reasonable condition. Schwinn really needs to package this bike better, it's very heavy to ship and handle and we all know that they get thrown about in the process of shipment. When I pulled the bike from the Box, it had a few scratches on it due to the packaging falling apart in transit but it wasn't too bad.

Well-made machine constructed of quality materials. Does not have that "made in China" feel about it. All the parts, welds and fit are first rate. Assembled by myself in about an hour. Rides well. The single speed is geared perfectly for the flat land where I live. If you have any hills at all, I would defiantly buy the 7 speed model. Outstanding bargain at under $400. I did not put the fenders on because I will not be riding in the rain and I feel they will end up getting beat up and bent from normal use. Not because of poor quality but because of being in the garage with all the other garage activities. Great machine. You will have to adjust the center on the front brakes. I looked on YouTube for a tutorial.

What I liked: This Schwinn was ordered on Saturday and I received it two days later late morning. The price was very reasonable at $323, although I noticed today the price has been reduced to $307. It's still a great price for this very well built trike. The assembly was straightforward and all the parts were there, It took me about 3 hours to do the assembly. The trike rides well and I'll get more used to it in time. What I didn't like: It took a little extra time because two of the fender bolt holes (one on either side), were not tapped properly and the bolts were cross threaded. Fortunately I had a metric tap and die set for the 6 x .75 size and I was able to retap the bolt holes and recut the bolts so they would fit.

TLDR: I would recommend getting this bike -- regardless of size or ability.

Overall, I am impressed with this trike. Quality is great and the price was right. There are a couple of steps in the assembly that are in the wrong order, but if you have a little mechanical ability, you'll do fine putting it together. I was pleased that the brakes were so close to right out of the box. Recommend!

The bike works well for the price, but it is very flimsy. I also wish I got the one with gears.

Ive wanted one of these bikes for ages but I was afraid to order one after all the horror stories I've read in the reviews. Overall, I am very happy with it, maybe we got a best-case-scenario kinda deal.

My 41 year old son assembled my trike in about 2 hours because he's handy with tools. I'm 4' 11 1/2" tall and slender at 98 pounds so bought the 24" trike. It did not fit as well as I would like. With the seat at the lowest setting, the seat level, and the handlebars at the highest setting, I had the sensation as if I would go over the handlebars when I test sat the trike. He raised the seat up one setting, adjusted the seat to be tipped upward, and tipped the handlebars upward. This made it better, but after going on a couple of short trips to the nearby stores, I felt my lower back strained and arms stretched out too much. I had my son adjust the seat to be level again. Hopefully, my back and arms feels less strained. My leg does feel cramped when I pedal, but I do not want to raise the seat anymore because it wouldn't allow my arms to be at the best position for the handlebars. If the bike could be redesigned so that the stem of the handlebars was longer to allow it to be raised more, than the seat could be raised, and then my legs could stretch out more and not feel cramped. An improved tricycle like this would probably get 5 stars from me. Another negative point is that the steering is not aligned. The handlebars want to pull to the left relative to the front wheel. My son mentioned that this was due to some irregularity about the number of spokes, I believe. I can't recall exactly, but I think he said that there was an extra spoke? Overall, the Schwinn Meridian 24" tricycle did not meet all my expectations.

There's a lot of good stuff here, and a few things that could do with a change.
