  The newly tapered head tube sports trick internal housing stops.

• The bars look normal enough but flip the lever…
• Conveniently, SRAM's red-anodized X.0 rear derailleur matches nicely.
• Both men's and women's RSE bibs will be available, the latter with a small buckle up top to pull the straps together.
• The reinforced down tube underside is also somewhat V-shaped to deflect debris off to the side, rather than take a more potentially damaging direct hit.
• A highly adjustable Ritchey head now tops the integrated mast.
• Sliding dropouts make for easier chain tension and brake adjustments.
• The show bike's carbon post has been replaced with a more versatile telescoping post.
• The new chamois is thinner and firmer-feeling and also adds vents at both ends.
• The monocoque front triangle uses particularly thick-walled carbon tubing for impact resistance.
• The integrated head tube is 1.5"-compatible.
• The tight rear end features wishbone-style stays.
• The rigid fork doesn't seem to be especially light but it's stiff and gets the job done.
• Schwinn has updated its cruiser line with fresh new lines and swoopier styling.
• The matching RSE jersey is purpose-built for hot weather.
