Our take
The 1988 Schwinn CrissCross offers a genuine slice of hybrid biking history, perfect for enthusiasts of vintage American-made bikes. The Chromoly steel frame provides that classic, resilient ride quality, though at 36 lbs, it's certainly on the heavier side. Its 21-speed (3x7) gearing is quite versatile for varied terrain, controlled by straightforward trigger shifters. Cantilever brakes are era-appropriate and offer decent stopping power. While it lacks modern suspension, its robust build and adjustable seat make it a dependable choice for city and light trail riding, assuming you appreciate its vintage character.
