Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Only Schwinn® can leverage more than 100 years of cycling expertise into better-engineered fitness products, and the Schwinn® 230 Recumbent Bike, with its walk-through design and scores of innovative features, is no exception.

Amazon.com Product Description:
Save money on monthly gym fees and get yourself in shape with the compact, comfortable Schwinn 230 recumbent exercise bike. The 230 boasts many of the high-quality features of the Schwinn 213, but adds several extras, including a nicer, easier-to-read instrument panel with a three-position angle adjustment, a slightly lower pedal height that produces a more comfortable riding position, and an easy step-through frame. And that doesn't even account for all the essentials, which range from 16 resistance levels to handlebars with an integrated heart rate monitor built into the grip.

The handiest feature, however, is unquestionably the anatomically designed recumbent seat, which not only offers a dual-position lumbar support for added comfort, but also a micro-adjustable fore/aft seat slider that accommodate a variety of body types and sizes. Other details include six preset programs (calorie goal, BMI measurement, recovery test, results mode, quick start, and manual mode), 10 profile courses, and transport wheels that both protect your floors and make the bike easy to store.



Track your time, interval time, RPM, watts, distance, pulse, speed, calories, and resistance on the 230's LCD console.

About Recumbent Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out.

The term recumbent literally means 'lying down.' Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - satisfied customer
This product was easy to assemble. The bike is very easy to operate. Although I have only had it for three weeks, the quality of the bike is very solid. I recommend this exercise machine to anyone who wants a quality exercise bike for a very reasonable price.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Well made, solid product.
Very nice assembly instructions. It took me about an hour at a casual pace.
Very solid construction.
Smooth noise free operation.
Nice resistance.Comfortable.
Basically I really like the unit.

There is however one thing that's driving me bonkers. During your workout it beeps every few seconds. There's no mention of it in the manual. After just a few days I'm considering finding the speaker and snipping the wire. I read while I'm on it and I can't stand the ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great bike for an amazing price!
We've had this exercise bike for about a year now, and we love it! It's comfortable and very quiet. There is a nice range of resistances, from quite easy to very hard (I actually haven't been able to take it to the hardest levels yet because they're too difficult). It has a range of training programs, which my husband loves. I use it in the quick start mode, which I like because it is easy to change the resistance on the fly. You can set programs to have a certain time goal, calories burned goal, or ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great After De-Squeaking
Fast, 3-day delivery. Shipping box was thin and a little beat up, but contents were well packed and undamaged. Except for some required, disconcerting disassembly during the assembly process, the good looking bike came together in about 3 hours. The only problem was very annoying noises (squeaking) of the seat when the bike was first used. To remedy that, I disassembled the seat's bottom and back, a total of 8 screws, and ran them through pieces of plastic foam (punch outs of electric outlet sealers), ... Read More

Schwinn 230 Recumbent Exercise Bike

I went online and looked at consumer reviews of several exercise bikes. The Schwinn 230 reviewers were largely highly positive to laudatory. The one theme that stood out in my mind after reading all reviews was -- "solid machine; excellent value for the money."

I bought the machine "sight unseen" a month ago. I can honestly state that it indeed is a "solid machine" and "excellent value for the money." [One thing I did not know beforehand -- ... Read More
