Low Price Schwinn 230 Recumbent Exercise Bike

Over All Rating Reviews :

We purchased this after our "auction special" upright exercise bike gave out. My husband is 6' 3" and I am 5' 2". I was not used to a recumbent and felt the reach was a little far for me, so my husband put blocks on the pedals. After 6 weeks of using the bike, I have moved the seat back a notch, so the bike actually fits both of us well. It is a good work-out with a nice choice of programs and levels. We put it together within a couple of hours on the afternoon that it arrived; the directions were easy to follow and we liked that the small parts (screws, knobs) were sealed on a labeled cardboard so that it was easy to use the correct item each time. My husband had given up riding the upright exercise bike, due to problems with his back. He was riding a regular road recumbent; this allows him the option of either riding outside or in the basement while watching TV. The lumbar support on the seat is nice, and it's easy to adjust the seat back and forth to adapt to our needs. We had no issues with the shipping container or delivery process.

Top 10 Places to Buy Schwinn 230 Recumbent Exercise Bike

My wife and I bought this bike to work our during the winter, and it has been great so far. Assembly was easy, but the box is a little heavy, so you will probably need someone to help you move it around. There is a great range of resistances. Level 1 is almost nothing, and Level 16 you REALLY have to work at. I usually end up doing level 6-8, so there is plenty of room to adjust depending on the workout I want. The bike is also silent, so it is easy to watch TV while riding. The only bad thing I have to say is that the foot straps aren't that easy to adjust quickly between riders, and sometimes get caught. We just took them off, because there really wasn't much of a need for them.

Lowest Price Schwinn 230 Recumbent Exercise Bike

After looking over several recumbents in the stores and online, my husband and I decided on the Schwinn 230.

Why a recumbent?
We chose a recumbent for the comfort factor. They are easier on your back (and we both tend to have problems with our backs) and just more comfortable than an upright.

Why this model?
After trying several other bikes (and I am suggesting that you actually try them before ordering online), the Schwinn had the features we wanted with the comfort we needed. Some things to note:
1. Pre-programmed "courses." Because I am a couch potato, I've been doing "Ride in the Park" at level 1. You can change the resistance or the course to one more challenging. A block graphic on the console will show when you are riding a straight road and when you are approaching a hill. You'll actually hear the bike adjust and feel the resistance on the pedals increase as you approach that "hill." It really gets your heart pumping!
2. The console also allows you to select how long you will be riding, scan between calories burned and speed, and montior you heart-rate, which it pulls from the handlebars you are holding.
3. Assembly is required and it took a little more than an hour. The booklet walks you through it step-by-step. I believe there were 13 steps in total and there were points where it was helpful to have an assistant. All parts and tools were included for assembly.
4. There is a water bottle holder under the seat. This was not necessary for us, but some people may be interested. I think it is in a slightly awkward place as you need to feel along the left underside of the seat to get it, but that is a minor concern.
5. Pedal straps are adjustable, but it is very tough to do. Once we got them set, we realized we should have made them larger for my husband's feet and we're having a difficult time re-adjusting them.

All in all, we both enjoy the bike and would recommend it.
