“I have weak hip due to MS. Is the bike seat higher than the pedals? I need to pedal down and not horizontally. I bought a Schwinn 270 and need to return it for this reason.”

Joanie Although the pedals are lower than the seat, recumbent bikes do have pedals out in front, meaning the user would pedal forward at a more horizontal angle rather than up and down as in a regular exercise bike. Do you prefer the recumbent seats over standard bike seats? The NordicTrack Commercial Studio bikes would be more vertically oriented for up and down pedaling. You can exchange the bike seat for another standard seat to fit your personal preferences. You may also consider an elliptical machine, although that is a standing exercise.
