What is the difference between the SP and RJ versions of this bike besides price?

My understanding is the shock suspension system on the RJ. I went to a bike store and asked about it before I bought mine, thinking I might want the shocks, but the guy told me that shocks in less expensive bikes (under $1000) usually weren't worth it and they made the bike heavier. Hope this helps

I did not know there WAS an RJ model however I did a bit of research after I received your question and the answer is.... suspension. Apparently the RJ26 has this suspension added. The suspension is located in the rear frame assembly. See if this link will take you to a photo of it. http://www.2ksilver.com/catalog/images/Full_Col_RJ26A_YLW1_web.JPG

SP is steel, RJ is aluminum alloy. It's 34lbs. my recommendation is buy the alloy tad lighter. For me full suspension is less strain on your back and less pain on the butt that is if you plan to use it off road.

SP26S folding bike frame material is steel, frame size is 16.375 inch. It does not have any suspension. Most components of the bike are made of steel.While RJ26A folding bike frame material is aluminum alloy, frame size is 17 inch. It has front and rear suspensions. Most components of the bike are made of aluminum alloy.

BTW, we'd highly recommend getting the Stealth PBO wheels vs the Stealth SS. The PBO spokes are incredibly strong and also absorb vibration like few others. They make the bike much smoother over rough surfaces.

Well, I've only been in the one I bought - the Mu P8. I can say that I really, really like this bike. I was worried, because I'm a big guy (6'6" 230 lbs); but it fits me and I enjoy riding it.

It is just the training wheels. For a good Honda or other name bike used plan on spending about $1,000. You can find them for cheaper but they usually need lots of work and don't buy the knockoff Chinese bikes. Stick with Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki, or KTM.

As cheap and sturdy as these little bikes are, just upgrade\ crossgrade to new parts that fit your aesthetic choices. Look at citygrounds.com or even

i got to try both of them out in a store they both feel really smooth but i went with the Nautilus e514 it just felt a bit more sturdy and has a nicer display the schwinn 420 display was kinda hard to read as the Nautilus was light up bright with big nurbers and imo is the better buy ...... i had my Nautilus e514 for 4 months now and i use every day and its still like the 1st day i brought it .... and im only 5"4 so we are pretty much the same hight ' good luck on your work outs and hope my review helps

I'm not aware of any of the bikes you are referencing. The key points to this bike that some others don't feature are a thicker durable frame for rougher terrain, the amount of gears, the double suspension, and the full sized wheels.

I don't think there is a big difference. I read some reviews and I know that the front wheel on the older model is a double wheel. I honestly don't remember the other differences but the reviews are really helpful so have a look!

Hello, There really is not much of a difference. On the new model, we changed the seat a bit not to include the plastic cushon/pad. Also, one of the hardware pieces changes from a nut to a bold. We permanently discontinued the black Tricycoo. I think those were the only changes. Are you familiar with the Joovy? We have several other toys as well. I personally love the Bicycoo which is Joovy's balance bike. It is great for speeding up the transition from toddler to bike without training wheels. If you have any more question please respond below in the comments or contact Joovy's Customer Care Center. They love answering any questions you may have. Thanks! Thanks!

The fact is, THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE. I called the Rancho tech for the same reason. His answer was, They are the same. He wouldn't admit it, but it's just a marketing thing. He said they had changed their web site, but it's still the same. I really like the way these struts leveled out my Titan. The ride is much improved. Doug Jones

I would suggest staying with this bike. I've got it and it has decent parts for the price. You're going to want to upgrade saddle and tires on any bike in this price range. The frame on this bike is quite good, nice clean welds, good dropouts.

My 800 EFJ Ranger is wider than the 500 XP; however, the seller may handle it for the 500 SP as well.

I am considering a 231 model. I have had a 201 model for 2.5 years.... had to have a flywheel in it for this exact problem after one year. ... now the 201 model is doing it again, and it is out of warranty. .... is the 231 built with better components?? By this post it sounds like it is not.. I bike on this a ton... every day. up to 80-100 miles on a good day. Seems like a waste if it is not. I bought Schwinn because I though the components were the best. .. and not so concerned about the bells and whistles. Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry, I do not know! Can tell you I bought 2 road bikes one at $1000. and this one for a backup at less than half price and it is 2x better than my expensive one.

I would recommend it but must tell you that when I was in Sam's club last week the had a schwinn adult trike with 3 sppeds that looked to be much better quality and if I had my choice of it or mine I would choose the Schwinn. The only thing that really bothers me is not being able to use the rear fenders. Because of that, if the roads are wet , it kicks water up on you. Other than that, it's great

Check your bikes there seems to be two different bikes, that or similar, on Amazon.com. the one I purchased has handlebars that are closer. And did not cost as much as the other one.

I believe all pictures are the Hornet. Difference is the color and the grip restraint. I have the black one with the straps and believe I read somewhere that was a change as the rings (depicted in white pictures) didn't hold firmly potentially damaging bike grips.
