Learning toward one or the other for buying a new dept store bicycle.
I
know what to look for when it comes to assembling them. The bike is
going to be used as a commuter. The Huffy's are about 30 dollars
cheaper
and both have Shamino gears. Just curious if I should spend the 30
bucks
more for a Schwinn or not. If you are going to reply that I should
buy
from an LBS, save your bandwidth.
So which would you recommend?
Dear Dyslexic PBS,
I doubt [modest cough] that you will hear from anyone who
has wasted more time and bandwidth here extolling the
glories of such value-for-money steeds.
(I also doubt that anyone will recommend either brand.)
But I'm pleased with my $60 Fury RoadMaster from Walmart
and its fifteen fierce Shamino gears.

As far as I can tell, the Fury rolls four miles along its
daily route with reasonable splendour, gnashing its teeth as
befits its name.
Most two-wheeled objects with pedals do the same.

Do 1/2" shaft clipless pedals exist?
Are they in a price suitable for Fury/Huffy/Schwinn one piece cranks
for those occaisions one is setting the commuting record?
