Also fairly light which makes it much easier making it up those big hills. One thing I like about this bike is that it is an excellent bike to start out on, but still has all the features you need to keep up with some of the more experienced riders. All you need is the skill to match them ;) I absolutely love mountain biking, and if it weren't for this bike I most likely wouldn't even be doing it, so it's great for me!

A great all around bike for beginners or experts - it doesn't matter. One thing I like about this is it actually has a pretty smooth and comfortable ride considering that its a road bike. Often times I feel like I just fought a 10 round boxing match after a road bike ride to my work. The sidewalks are pretty bad so even little bumps have quite an impact. This bike has handled them the best so far hands down. This is a really great bike. A great all around bike for beginners or experts – it doesn’t matter.

I am trying to find the lightest road bike possible but its hard to locate the weight amounts. Furthermore, is this a good bike? I'm sorry but I don't know much about road biking but am trying to improve my health and cut back on gas consumption at the same time so I figured riding a bike to school and work would be the best way to kill two birds with one stone.

I am taking this new girl out for the third time and want to try something a little bit different, and thought that a tandem bike ride would be a fun thing to do. (I know, quite an expensive first date but I got money to spend) Seems like it would be perfect.... Does it take a lot of practice to get two people working on bike? Thanks!

]]> Comment on Schwinn Katana Road Bike Review: An ultra lightweight bike – almost unreal! by Dave http://www.bikelegend.com/2009/07/schwinn-katana-road-bike-review-an-ultra-lightweight-bike-almost-unreal/comment-page-1/#comment-1897 Dave Sun, 11 Jul 2010 23:33:56 +0000 http://www.bikelegend.com/?p=49#comment-1897 This bike is truly awesome mountain bike especially for beginners. One thing I really like about this bike is it's weight. Weight makes a really big difference with speed/road bikes. You will run out of energy much quicker if you are carting up extra pounds with use as you blaze the streets. Also a fairly comfortable bike (for a road bike). Ive tried many bikes and I'd always have lower back problems with those. My back is still doing good after close to a year working with this bike. Recommended.

If you have a girlfriend/boyfriend, tandem biking is a great shared activity to do. I bought the Kent Dual Tandem because of all the good reviews I have heard about it. While it did take awhile to set it up, it was well worth the time and money I put into it. For the price, you can't beat this dual tandom. Definitely a fun little bike for couples.

I have been beating it up for about a year now and it is still working just like the day it arrived, if not better. It did take a little bit of tweaking in the beginning, but you can expect that from any bike. Honestly this bike is better than some of the $500 road bikes I have owned.
