I would consider a Middleweight 24/26x1.75 or 1 3/4 a cruiser too. Schwinn Typhoon and the like.. as well as the above mentioned 26x2.125 bikes. It's a generic description of that style bike. I agree with @GTs58 description above and the example in the picture posted I'd call a cruiser. A road bike or a Schwinn Lightweight or British 3 speed is not a traditional cruiser... (to answer @Hukah's question).

Wore out three sets of tires already!
Most people would say this bike of mine is a cruiser and to me it just a bike I like to ride made up of parts I had . Roger

If the word Cruiser has taken on different meanings to different people than maybe it has come to means a bike that is ridden in a certain style.
Cruising is nice, easy, and slow. Leaves out balloon tire Klunkers which might have started life as a Cruiser

I personally consider "cruiser" to be pejorative.
But then again, cruising implies riding just for the sake of riding (as opposed to commuting, touring, deliveries, racing, what have you). And riding just for the sake of riding is great - something I need to be doing more of.
But yeah, I'd wipe that word from my vocabulary, and if someone says "nice cruiser" (un-ironically), smile and thank them.
