This bike is equiped with 700 x 38c Kenda K-180 tires and Stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Aluminum, 36-hole. Schwinn equiped this exact model with Shimano Altus brakes, Shimano Alivio levers braking system and Front: Formula FM 21, Rear: Shimano Altus hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Schwinn used 7005 aluminum material for the frame. Steel high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Searcher Horizon to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Girvin Flexstem.
