Are you kidding? Javariya.com? Website business address is a person's house in Ohio. You comparing this to Walmart.com?
"24-inch wheels fits riders 56 to 66 inches tall."
That is a joke. There're going to be a lot of disappointed adults who buy this kid's bike incorrectly thinking that it will fit them.
While this is true, generally, it's also easy to make a case for mountain bike tires for suburbs and parks. Casual riders can benefit from the confidence and comfort that bigger tires provide, and they don't generally log a ton of miles on nice pavement. It doesn't take a long patch of gravel between a parking lot and a bike path to upset an inexperienced rider, and they don't care about the speed that lower-resistance road tires offer. Of course super knobby tires aren't always necessary but the average person exercising or tooling around parks may be more comfortable on a mountain bike than a true road bike.

Quote from Deal Hound :
I had a Schwinn Sidewinder when I was a kid 25 years ago. I got it because it was recommended by Zillions. It was a great bike. I rode that thing a ton. I went though multiple sets of tires, brake pads, brake and derailleur cables, and chains. That bike kept going and going.

But even that long ago, I think it cost over $200, and it didn't have a front suspension or disc brakes. Back then, Walmart didn't sell Schwinn bikes. They had to be bought at high-priced bike stores.
Schwinn was a real bike company 25 years ago, but they went bankrupt in 2001 and the department store brand Pacific bought the name to slap on their low quality bicycles.

Think 5-2 ok?
Yes it would be fine. I actually think this is a better size for 5'2" than 26 inch.

Too big for my 7 year old twins? They are about 55" tall.

Better to get them a XS or small 26 inch Mountain Bike. My wife has a 15 year old XS Schwinn (Bike store quality not big box) she rides. She is 60 inches tall. Easier to maintain than any 24 inch as parts are readily available.

On the other had, how much love a $150 bike gets is anyone's guess.

Quote from whyzir :
Frames can be made on larger wheels to fit different height people, don't buy bikes for certain heights based on wheel sizes. Wheel sizes are for standard replacement and fixing ability. 26" is more standard and one has more options when something needs replacing in that size (wheels, tubes, tire, even spokes, mudguards, racks...etc all fit 26" bikes more.
True, except 27.5 and 29 are the new standard for adult bikes. If 26 sticks around for much longer it will probably end up on kids bikes.

I have a 26 inch sidewinder that I use to bike for exercise and run to the stores all over the place within a 15 mile radius. Its a great bike but not the original schwinn quality. Schwinn was sold to pacific bike which later was sold to another holding company. These are made by the same company that makes huffy, roadster and other names. The only thing that differentiates this from those is the warranty. This has a lifetime warranty and works with the manufacturer. They will replace any part on it with few exceptions on the brakes, tires, brake cables etc.

============
Last I heard, Schwinn was a two-tiered company, providing decent bikes to bike stores, and low quality bikes to stores like target and Walmart.

please do not bring this bike to a mountain, you could get seriously hurt.

You could do a lot worse for a kid's bike. Disc brakes, Shimano drivetrain with trigger shifters are nice upgrades over most of what you see at this price point. Also looks like a tapered head tube (not that it matters on a bike like this).

For all the people wringing their hands that someone might try to take this thing on MTB trails, it's a 24" bike. I think its safe to assume the people buying this bike for their 10yo wont be dragging them into the woods for a downhill session.
