I prefer the Raleigh Sports to the Schwinn 3 speeds by far-- the frames feel better to me (prefer the lugged to the EF design).

I do prefer Schwinn for the heavyweight ballooners though to any of the Raleigh or foreign cruisers that would be in the heavyweight division (Roadsters I find a different bike altogether).
