Okay, so one picture is different than the other two. One shows the bike with shocks on the front fork and a different Schwinn logo. Which is right?

They have shock absorbing hydraulic front forks. The first picture, which shows "dust boot" on the shocks is not correct. My brother's and mine don't have them.

I bought mine in November 2015 and it didn't have the rubber bellows on the front shocks. For more info see my review with pictures http://www.amazon.com/gp/customer-reviews/R327YQVQ8JUC1B/ref=cm_cr_pr_rvw_ttl?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B00AWNHYWW

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.

Found a fairly decent writeup on the difference @ http://www.livestrong.com/article/270832-comparison-of-schwinn-230-240-bikes/

Front Shock. Rears are different. Use the Look Up Make and Model, will help. Cheers. Ken.

I haven't had to deal with that issue. My bike has been doing great! I would send a request to Schwinn for the information.

It's been awhile since I ordered these, but I think there were 2 shocks included. You should be able to ask the vendor

Sorry for the confusion. Amazon does not allow sellers to modify listing images or descriptions. If you buy this fork from us (Worldwide Cyclery), you will get the version for Rim or Disc brakes.

That's a good question my friend. The one I bought here at Amazon.com is not the one that is currently shown/sold here. The one I have can be seen here: http://outdoorgearmadness.com/mongoose-status-3-0-review (the bottom picture is actually my bike :) -- I have nothing to do with the website though) The page also include some reviews and comments about the bike. I haven't had any problems at all with mine.

My brother in law built ours but I looked at it and here is what I can tell you. Looking at the bike from the back going from the left side to the right is what I see. The left tire just has the axel pushed in it, then there is 4 inches of exposed axel before the chassis starts, after the chassis there is the black shaft, then a white sprocket that is larger than the sprocket shape inside of the wheel. I called my BIL and he does remember having to force the axel and wheel together but said that the white sprocket that I can visibly see did not fit in the wheel shape. I am not sure if this helps. I have pictures I will try and post if you need them.

Minor difference in technical specs and / or components. As far as I can tell, the last significant change was around 2010 when they went to a rear disc brake. The 2014 spec shows shimano derailleurs which I think is a fairly recent change as in earlier models they used SRAM derailleurs. Overall, I don't think it's worth losing much sleep over... The Paratrooper is really solid bike in my opinion.

I fully agree with this statement. I purchased this bike for the frame, fork, seat post, stem. I have had to upgrade the crankset, handlebars, seats, tires, tubes, peddles. They are not of quality. I now have to upgrade the bottom bracket as the bearings just shattered.

Yeah, you're right. ...it doesn't look exactly like the picture. The front isn't quite so block-like, but not quite like a tricycle seat either. It's half way between the two...

This is funny and confusing, I have one definite "NO", One definite "YES" and one definite "MAYBE". Again, my bike has a "custom" body style not a "classic".

I'm sorry. I have mo idea. I bought mine for an exercise bike which is not a Schwinn. I do think it's great though.

I thought it was a weird question until I looked up "Bb68 73" and found this...Shimano XT SM-BB70 Hollowtech II Bottom BracketLooking at the pictures on the left...Now that's weird.
