Schwinn Voyager GS Review

On one of my many trips to Performance Bike, I had the opportunity to review the Schwinn Voyager GS Bike and to talk to a very knowledgeable sales person about comfort and hybrid bikes and specifically about the Voyager GS. Schwinn Voyager GS Comfort Bike

When I asked flat out "What is the best hybrid/comfort bike in the store", the Performance guy told me that it was the Schwinn Voyager GS and after reviewing this bike and testing the components, I would have to agree.

Note: This review was originally written for the Voyager GS but the GS model has now been replaced with the "Voyager 7"

Schwinn calls this bike a "Bike Path" bike, which I would consider either a hybrid or a comfort bike. This bike can handle touring and distance rides, comfortably, as well as paved, crushed stone, grass or dirt bike trails.

The Voyager GS has a nicely padded seat, front and rear suspension (shock absorbers) ergonomic handlebar grips with grip shifters (not levers), high quality components and a comfortable frame design. Mens and Womens models are available.


The 2010 GS was for sale for $360 on 8/1/2010.


Hybrid and comfort bikes, including theSchwinn Voyager GS are an excellent choice for casual and comfortable bike rides as well as an occasional longer distance (bike path or touring) ride.

Hybrid and Comfort Bike Comparisons:

You can find some cheaper brands of comfort bikes (at Wal-Mart for example) but you will usually "get what you pay for" and will not be able to find the same quality as you will get with the Voyager 7 for the same (or slightly higher) price.

Customer Reviews:

There were 2 very positive reviews of the Voyager GS (both 5 of 5 stars), at Performance Bike at the time of this review

Comments included...

"I just started riding again after 20+ years. I purchased this bike for comfort on short 5 to 10 mile rides. I am up to 20+ miles on most rides. This bike is so easy to ride you just want to keep on going. Thanks Schwinn you have a great bike at a great price."
