Extended Information

Outside Magazine 2006 Buyer's Guide - "Not everyone wants to race, so why are so many bikes constructed with aggressive angles and knee-wrecking gears? Schwinn felt your pain and responded with the Fastback Comp, a roadie with concessions to comfort that hardly sacrifice performance. The proprietary aluminum is rigid enough for effective power transfer, while the carbon seatstays and fork kill the road buzz. And your knees and back stay fresh, thanks to the upright positining and compact gears (50x36 in front). One tester, grinning at me from the cockpit of the Fastback, said, 'I feel like I'm riding my couch!' It's an ideal pick for long weekend rides or centuries. And the best part? This is a lot of bike for the money, so you won't grow out of it anytime soon. Bonus: The ergonomic, flat-handled Ritchey bars help sotp tingling hands and sore shoulders on long road days."

VeloNews 2006 Buyer's Guide - "Schwinn lives up to it's name as the once-greatest American bicycle manufacturer with the Fastback Comp. Smooth-welded N'Litened Gold Label super-butted aluminum tubing keeps the bike strong and light, while the Reflex carbon fiber seatstays help dampen vibration."

Features

Smooth-welded N�Litened Gold Label super butted aluminum tubing is light and strong with superior fatigue failure resistance. Reflex carbon fiber seatstays help dampen vibration.
Schwinn Reflex CF-2 carbon fiber fork with 7075-alloy steerer absorbs road shock yet is very stiff laterally and exceptionally light.
Shimano 105 20-speed drivetrain with Truvativ Elita 50/36t crankset with Giga X-Pipe external bearings for direct power transfer. Compact crankset coupled with an 11-23t cassette gives wide-range gearing without the need for a weight-adding triple crankset
Gipiemme paired-spoke wheelset allows for lighter, stronger wheels than traditional designs.
Ritchey Comp oversize Bar/Stem combo is lighter and allows for greater stiffness than smaller diameter bars.
