Schwinn Active 20 Series Recumbent Exercise Bike Order Now
cannot put anything together. I had asked my daughter to put the bike together for me but it took her so long to come over to do so, that I thought, what the heck, I'm gonna try and do it myself. Everything needed is included and the instructions were very clear. I put the bike together in a little over an hour!!! I use it most
days and it is a quality exercise bicycle.

Where To Buy Schwinn Active 20 Series Recumbent Exercise Bike
Actually, I wasn't even considering the Active 20 Series until I saw it displayed next to one I was sitting on and thought I'd give it a try. Glad I did!
Some favorites include the comfortable seat with a wide range of adjustments, generous size pedals, water bottle holder conveniently placed up front, and just enough computer programs to make it interesting. It's quiet, straightforward to operate, has nice lines, is solidly built, and you don't have to plug it in.
Fedex delivered the package in excellent condition and it arrived in just 3 days, even though I opted for Super Saver Shipping.
I'm really enjoying this bicycle and feel I got a lot for my money.

Confidence Fitness Space Saving X Bike Review
Easy to assemble (although I never did figure out step 2 - remove bolts from lower leg - HUH? apparently it didn't make a difference)
Quiet to use.
Easy to move.
Good solid construction.
Despite other reviews, the seat is fine (maybe they updated it).
I'm not a fitness freak, and I have the tension setting on 6 out of 8. So if you're looking for a really vigorous workout, this may NOT be the bike for you.
At half the price of other exercise bikes.. this is definitely a bargain and worth the money.

Promotion Schwinn Active 10 Series Upright Exercise Bike
My main gripe is the shady design with both the seat and the bars. The seat is extremely uncomfortable. The 'upright' positioning is also really uncomfortable, nothing like the gym bikes I'm used to. The seat actually points away from the bars so you need to be hunched over in order to reach them. While the seat itself is on as tight as it will go it still spins around which can make an uncomfortable seat even more uncomfortable during movement (Which is what the product is for)
As for the bars the design of the bike allows you to have a few different positions, I prefer the more 'normal' bike position as opposed to the straight out one because I have fairly short arms and with the seat pointing away as it does it makes it almost impossible to reach. But the slightest of pressure moves the bars up and down, even with it screwed as tightly into place as possible. This can get really annoying when you're trying to push yourself to just go that extra .5 mile and all the sudden the bars jolt down and scare the hell out of you.
The calorie counter on the bike has no way of setting in your weight so you have no idea how many calories you are actually burning. This wouldn't be as annoying if somewhere in the manual they told you what weight they are basing this calorie counter on and I could do the math myself. It seems like a pretty basic question, (the reason I decided to buy it was the calorie counter, it was required) If a 120lb person is on it for an hour they can burn up to 504 calories, a 170 lb person can burn 819 a 230 lb person can burn 1197 a 300lb person 1480 (source= [...])these numbers are vastly different and a device with fitness in mind should actually keep fitness in mind and know that not everyone will be the same. Because of this I've had to basically ignore the calorie counter and go by the mileage and try to look it up online to get the 'real' amounts. It's like having a scale that will weigh you correctly, but only if you weigh 150/lbs.
The tension settings on the bike are pretty excellent. Theres 10 (?) or so of them, ranging from absolutely nothing to feeling like your leg pressing 50lbs with every rep. You can change your tension at any time without having to play around with a menu or resetting anything which makes it easy to switch it around. When the bike was first set up the higher tensions would make a loud whirling noise but that quickly went away with use.
Another thing this bike is great on is space. I didn't have much room but it's really nice and compact (I'm guessing at the expense of comfort, it takes up less room than a reclining chair.
All in all, it does what it has to but it certainly doesn't excel in many areas. If I had known then what I knew now about it I would have spent more money on a better model. But it works and it's better than nothing. The goal of getting something like this is so you can work out more, but the uncomfort and flaws in bike deign make it really hard to motivate yourself to get on it.

Best Buy Schwinn Active 20 Series Recumbent Exercise Bike
We also looked at the more expensive, older Schwinn model. Personally, we liked this one better, and it's 200 bucks cheaper. This one was more comfortable and also much more easily adjusted, which is nice when you have 2 people using it at very different heights. This one hasn't been on the market as long, so I'm not sure how it'll last over the years, but so far it's been strong and sturdy. Still, we got a 3 year warranty (not from Amazon) just in case. Even with the warranty it's still much cheaper than the $[...] Schwinn model.
As for negatives, you can get a lot of resistance from this bike, but each step up is a big jump. It would have been nicer to be able to ramp up more gradually. Also, I believe the calorie burner count is too high. I have a hard time believing that I can burn almost 1000 calories in an hour (although I do get the resistance up pretty high and break a good sweat).
All told though, this is an excellent bike at an excellent price. Highly recommend.

Bargain sale Schwinn 140 Upright Exercise Bike
The previous model (130) was highly rated/recommended on the Consumer Report websites and that made me realize that a newer model would/should be even better. I live in a small apartment and although I wanted the recumbent one, I had to go with the upright. Not to mention, I figured I could work on my posture while riding upright. (ha ha) This bike is just what I need to get in shape. I have a leg injury and I am overweight and out of shape. I needed a piece of equipment that I could commit to and not feel like I was doing a dreaded chore. I can hop on this bike and watch tv, listen to music, talk with people around me, or just look out of my window.
At first I felt like the price was expensive compared to the other models, but it's true, you get what you pay for. As I mentioned, I am overweight and I needed something that would last while I pursued my fitness goals. The other brands are not built as well as the Schwinn models. Simply look at the frame work and tubing and you can tell.
After I put it together (without any problems whatsosever) I realized that it was of good quality and worth the money I spent. The setup was easy. I am a female with manicured nails and I didn't even chip my polish putting this bike together. I also didn't require any help. It was really easy. I had my laptop on my sofa with the manual enlarged (I went to the Schwinn website and downloaded it) so that I could see the images clearly, but I mainly used the paper manual that the bike came with.
I read the instructions for the setup of the user profile and everything went just fine.
~I read some reviews about little issues with customizing, but if you just take your time and read the manual, you will really see its not difficult. When you set up a custom workout, you have to realize that it goes through 30 levels so it appears as though nothing is happening, but be patient as you customize it and you will see that it is working right.~
~Also the Heart Rate monitor, if you simply plug it in on the side, it should work just fine. You just have to look for the spot to plug it in to.~
I have only used the bike 4 times so I can't give you any long term use information, other than the programs are nice, the resistance is great, and it has a lot of features on the console once you set up your user profile, but I can say that this is a very good investment for anyone considering purchasing a quality exercise bike. It is a good piece of equipment. If you have to save up a little to get the bike, start saving! If you are considering a different brand, forget about it! If you think that its hard to put together, get over the thought! If you are worried about it not being right for you, try it and you will like it!
I have a lot of weight to lose and I don't like going to the gym. I walk around my neighborhood which is ok, but now I can get a good little cardio workout. I am so glad that I got this bike. I am helping myself in the long run. This is the best way to spend over $300 and have something well worth it!
No missing/broken pieces, no damaged stabilizers, no damaged or flimsy box. I ordered and received in exactly 7 days. ***I'm NOT discrediting anyone's reviews about problems they had with their purchase, I am just stating that my purchase was problem free***
~I will add another review/or update in the future about how the bike is performing~ I hope this helps motivate someone!

Price Schwinn 230 Recumbent Exercise Bike
As I began to assemble the bike, I saw that the seat bottom was missing. I called Amazon and they said they would ship me a new bike and I could send back the old one. Now, this package weighs over 100 pounds and I weigh only 120 lbs and had a heck of a time getting it into my house by myself. I told them that that was not an option to please send me the part, the seat. They said that I could get the part from a local business and they would reimburse me up to $50. I can't even find the part on the internet and Schwinn won't be open until Monday. I'm beginning to have my doubts that I can find the part. I am very frustrated!!!

Schwinn 230 Recumbent Exercise Bike Top Quality
Shipping: I read a lot of negative reviews on receiving busted up boxes, missing pieces, scratched merchandise, etc. Mine was shipped ABF and was pretty much flawless. There were a couple of holes in the outer cardboard, but it was shipped through a freight hauler, and was shipped FREE.
Assembly: I read one review where the purchaser took 4 hours to put the bike together. He must have been using his left hand in the dark. I stuck this together in 90 minutes, taking my time and no help from my wife with directions. All pieces were included through use of a shrink wrap system for hardware, and all necessary tools for assembley are INCLUDED!
User Friendly: The bike is easy to use, and directions are detailed, yet simple to follow. I wanted to spend time exercising, not playing with gizzmos.
Only Disappointment: My only let down was the day I got the bike, Amazon put them on sale for $50 less than what I paid. I have an email in to them asking for credit. I am hopeful they will make a good business decision and rebate the difference.

4 Types of Exercise Bikes
Image : http://www.flickr.com
Before buying an exercise bike, it helps to know what types of exercise bikes are available.
Exercise bikes are appreciated by fitness buffs and casual exercisers alike. They provide a popular alternative to cycling, jogging, running, walking, and other outdoor exercises. While outdoor exercises do have their health advantages, such as exercising amid natural terrain, fresh air and the negative ions produced by trees and other vegetation, what do you do if the outdoors is not conducive to exercising? After all, it might be raining, snowing or too hot and sunny to exercise safely and comfortably. Or you might just prefer to exercise indoors, regardless of the weather. Stationary bikes are perfect under these circumstances.
Not familiar with exercise bikes?
Sometimes called exercise bicycles, stationary bikes, or cardio bikes, they resemble traditional bicycles but are designed to remain stationery and be used solely for exercising indoors. Working out on an exercise bike for 20 minutes can burn calories, elevate your heart rate, and tone the muscles of your abdomen and legs.
What types of stationary bikes are available?
There are two main types of exercise bicycles: upright, which resemble traditional bicycles, and recumbent. Each type is available in different models and designs, with various optional features.
1. Traditional Upright Exercise Bicycles
Featuring pedals, handles and a saddle as a seat, this type of cardio bike strongly resembles a typical street bicycle. Your position while riding this type of stationary bike also resembles your position on an ordinary bicycle.
2. Dual Action Exercise Bikes
Another type of upright stationary bike, dual action bikes feature handle bars attached to their pedals. These special handle bars are designed to exercise your arms. A dual action exercise bike can give you a full-body workout, including your upper body and arms in addition to your legs.
3. Recumbent and Semi-Recumbent Exercise Bicycles
These exercise bicycles feature seats that resemble a chair or bucket. The seat design places the rider in a reclining (recumbent) position while riding. A backrest is provided to support the lower back. While pedaling in this reclined position, the rider's legs are thrust forward rather than the more traditional downward movement.
4. Stationary Bikes with Interactive Features
Trendy and modern, interactive exercise bikes feature technology that permits the rider to enjoy entertainment or Games while riding. Some people find these features distract them and are able to convert a strenuous exercise session into an easy fitness workout. An LCD screen allows the rider to watch a movie, simulate a hill climb or race, or play a video game.
Which type of cardio bike would be best for you?
No type of stationary bike is better than the others. The type that would be best for you depends on your needs and preferences. If you want to replicate the workout you can get from a traditional street bike, or if you want to simulate hill climbing, then one of the upright models would suit you. A recumbent bike would be better if you need or prefer comfort, particularly for your lower back.

Pros:
I am 5'1 and it goes short enough for me.
The seat is wide. Since I was not used to exercising the seat still felt uncomfortable but as time goes on it is feeling better. I have a wide back end too.
The bike is compact and doesn't take up alot of space. I have mine in the living room next to the couch.
It offers pre-programed workouts.
Heartrate monitor built in.
It is quiet. I can watch tv and ride.
Price for a stationary bike it is considered inexpensive.
Easy to put together. I assembled it myself without any help from my husband. My son did have to help hold the bike so I could put the cables together.
Cons:
Honestly, I can't think of any.

The skinny - I'm fat. Too fat for this thing according to the specs (300 lbs.). So, will it crumble under my weight? I don't think so because it just has that feeling of quality. Assembly was a bit mysterious due to a manual with sparse instructions. Careful for things that are pre-assembled and then have to be disassembled during assembly - it's a bit deceptive. Anyway, the short about this beast is that my wife and I (6'3") both use it, it has that huge amount of seat adjustment. Enjoy.

Cheapest Schwinn 140 Upright Exercise Bike
If you wish to take advantage of the chest strap you must buy a polar compatible chest strap for around $40 in addition to paying extra for the bike compared to the model 130.
The seat has come loose and required re-tightening and the straps on the pedals hit the ground if you have them in the smallest position.
Riding the bike is very smooth but the display has to be at the right angle or you can't read it. I am 5' 11" and I have the seat in hole 3, and the display as flat as it can go to be able to read it.
The water bottle holder is nice but for the price they should throw in a water bottle too.
The leveling legs on the back stabilizer are a good feature. Despite what others have said, I found the assembly instructions pretty clear and easy to follow. Pay attention to the details and you shouldn't have a problem.
In summary it appears to be a nice exercise bike but I'm not sure that the features you get with the Model 140 justify the large price increase over the Model 130.
