***General Information from the manufacturer regarding sizes of most bikes from them*** For the casual bike riders, most individuals use the size (diameter) of the wheels: 20", 24", 26"...etc to make the selection of the bike they wish to purchase. Bikes measured this way have frames designed relative to the tire size, so the larger the tire, the larger the frame. Some bike manufacturers may use a simple overall bike measurement such as x-small, small, medium, large, x-large; the bike size is usually on a sticker somewhere on the frame on other brands. Here is some other info we have obtained from the manufacturer awhile back ; The manufacturer may label the bikes Boy's, Men's, Girl's, Women/Ladies however, they are not only meant for younger or older individuals. The rider will need to go by their height/inseam size. For example: An individual that is 64" (5'4") may need a 24" wheeled bike. It is really personal preference what someone may be comfortable with. Some might not care if their feet dangle and cant touch the ground when sitting on the seat, but others may not like it. Riding a bicycle that is not correctly sized to the rider may result in the rider's feet not being able to touch the ground and balance the bicycle, properly reach the handlebar for steering or braking, and loss of control when pedaling.   Most of the adult Schwinn bikes were tested up to 250 lbs.This sizing below is just a general guideline for some Schwinn bikes. It is always best to be professionally measured to find the best fit/size if unsure.Bike Wheel Size	Your Approx.

Question 2

How does this bike do on small hills with the gearing?  It would be rode in a subdivision however there are small hills

Accepted Answer

Should do fine. Gear shift is effortless with a small twist of the wrist on the handlebar mounted changer, chain slides to new sprocket and you keep peddling. I have experienced no problems.

Question 3

In the picture, the color looks liek a true turquoise, is that the actual color?

Accepted Answer

Yes the color was turquoise, but I do not recommend purchasing this bike. 
We bought it for our daughter for Christmas and had to return it. The fenders came banged up and the front tire was bent.
On a positive note, the return was easy.
