Schwinn Rocket bike review
Schwinn produced the Rocket bike in 2008 and can be classified as a Mountain bike bicycle.Rocket bike is available in many sizes such as 16 (inches), 17 (inches), 19 (inches) and 21 (inches).
Schwinn Mountain bike Rocket can be found in one single color which is Olive.
This bike is equiped with 26 x 1.95" Kenda K 1027 tires and Stainless steel spoke wheel while the rims are manufactured by Alex PC19, 32-hole. Schwinn equiped this exact model with ProMax linear-pull brakes, Shimano EF-50 levers braking system and Formula alloy hubs.
To guarantee the comfiest ride Schwinn used Aluminum material for the frame. Alloy 30mm rise high strength material is used on the handlebar of this Rocket to ensure the perfect handling while the stems are made of Trail Tuned alloy.
For the smoothest biking experience SR Suntour XCC-T302, 42-34-24 teeth is used on this bicycle linked to KMC Z72 chain that is easily replaceable as stated by Schwinn, the whole system is connected to a high reliability Shimano EF-50 gear shift levers.
