Are there any gears in this bike?

No...this bike has only one gear. No shifting like on the ten speeds. As long as where you plan to ride is flat not a problem. Going up hills is a little tougher with only the one gear.The trade off is get more excercise...if exercise is a consideration.

This bike does NOT have gears and it also does not have hand breaks. You must back pedal to stop.

You can buy metal gears separately for $10. We had one with the regular hard (plastic?) gears they come with, lasted a few years

No and when I ordered that bike they sent a pink bike. Emailed company and they said they'd send a return label and never did. Ended up donating it.

No, and the pedals are smaller than what I'm used to. Fortunately I was able to take the pedals with straps off my old bike and use them on this one.

Being a happy owner of this exercycle your question is a very good one. I just looked at my bike and it appears that it has exactly the type of pedals that are replaceable. They are threaded into the crank levers just like a bicycle.

It is chain driven (not belt), so I believe it has metal gears. We were told by a technician that this was one of the best available for an inexpensive price.

No gears but hand brakes, my granddaughter was 9 last year and the bike was a gift. She loved it and hopped right on.

yes it has an independent pedaling system. The negative is gear changing system had to be retapped. $300 you get what u pay for

Yes. An assembly manual and a somewhat abbreviated user's manual came with mine. I would guess you might be able to download these from Schwinn.

That is correct. It does not come with pedals just as high end road bikes do not. It IS a great bike. Feels like you are riding a road bike.

Just one gear on the bike that I got. Which is probably all I think you would need on these type of bikes.

The motor is encased inside the base, so the gears are not visible. I would presume they are, but I don't know for sure.

I have never tried, it is raining cats and dogs right now, but I will try and look tomorrow. I can say that it is a good bike. Had a little trouble with the gears but nothing that couldn't be adjusted.
