    Cheapest setup to ZWIFT

    My review is entirely focused on how you can start Zwifting on this dirt cheap bike. It connects seamlessly through the POWER Channel of Zwift and transmits Cadence and Power. Start a manual workout to connect it to your Zwift device. The resistance changes are calibrated to push up the power numbers om Zwift. I have hit a top Power of around 620W on this bike. After first 2-3 days the seat isn't a problem either. I can sustain 60-90 minute sessions easily. For a context, the cheapest trainer would cost you about 600$ and you would still need to have your own bike and cadence sensors.

    I chose this one over a more expensive one on sale for the same price because the foot strap did not cover the tip of the toe, which made it look more convenient to just get on and ride. I did replace the seat with an extra wide Peloton seat, though. All in all, a comfortable bike. Well worth it. Pardon the mess, I've been rearranging my exercise area.

    I'm a tough grader, this is a good purchase and an excellent value. The assembly was well documented and everything fit properly. This is a minimalist bike, but the heart rate counter is fine, the 20 or so routines seem to work OK. It is reasonably light so it can be easily moved by one person, and compact enough to fit into a corner. My one negative comment is that the wheels do not have the same weighted flywheel feeling that you get with more professional gym-style bikes, so you have to push continuously. I am 6' 230, and I don't have any concerns about the sturdiness and safety of the bike.

    Very simple bike that is great if you are just trying to get started with indoor cardio at home. Very small footprint, fits on a standard exercise mat. Also very quiet, you could workout at night and not wake anyone up. The setup did take some time and is easier with two people; set aside at least an hour to put it all together. But there were no problems with the setup. Very lightweight and easy to move around, but also sturdy. The seat is wiggly, but maybe that's intentional? It doesn't interfere with the workout.

    Easy to assemble and get to use it quick

    Depending on your physical condition you may need a buddy to put it together. But you can assemble it finding some equilibrium to connect the cables while holding the parts against the floor or your chest. It is easier to put this with another person, but if you assume the risk you can assemble it alone. My only warning is to be careful with the seat, you need to tighten the screws very well to avoid it changing position suddenly. I have good coordination and could get myself out of hazard when the seat switched inclination suddenly a couple of times, but a person with some disability may be harmed. So get this assembled by someone you trust with mechanical things if you don't want to experiment with how to set the seat. I could not find the bike in the Bluetooth settings on my iPad but the app works so don't worry if you cannot find it in settings, the app will figure out how to connect. The 16 levels of resistance cover what I am used to in gym static bikes so this is a plus. On a superficial note, the gadget looks very good, the display is totally low tech, but bright and expected given the price. If you have the tablet/app recommended you won't see the display anyways as the information will be available in the app.

    I love it!! I bought this stationary bike January of 2021 and I still love it. I’m petite size and this bike works perfectly for my size- I can reach the pedals comfortably. Occasionally when pedaling, it makes a cranking sound so I’ll pedal backward for a few seconds and then it works itself out. No big deal. I also love the size of it. it doesn’t take up much room. Easy assembly. My husband assembled this bike with some of my assistance. Highly recommended

    First off, the assembly instructions that come with this are quite confusing and basically useless. No need to fret however, Schwinn has a very easy to follow assembly video on YouTube. Had it put together in about 20 mins. The bike is insanely quiet. The built in programs seem pretty good. Overall this bike hit every category i was aiming for. Its quiet, it feels sturdy, and it is fairly light for a good quality bike so moving it around is very easy.

    Building this bike did not require much effort, can easily be done with one person. Lowering the stars because the seat is not the most comfortable, will be looking for an alternative seat or a cover. Have been using an old pillow in the meanwhile. The pedaling is smooth, great presets for many types of exercises, personally use the bike for HIIT. The resistance can get very high. The lcd screen does not light up though and have had trouble connecting the device to Schwinn app via bluetooth which is a bummer but will be troubleshooting with customer service soon.

    A great lower priced bike, if you don’t need all the “bells and whistles.” It does what I need! Shows time, distance, speed and heart rate. It has resistance levels and optional challenge programs. It’s very quiet. Find the seat comfortable. Perfect bike for getting a basic workout done!

    If you want to assemble this yourself, bring a friend. The vertical mount for the console / handlebars is challenging by one's self. Also, the handle bars require being held in position as you use both hands to screw them into place. 100% doable with a buddy. This bike is fantastic and I have used it for nearly two months now. I wanted a challenge I could feel, and I do. The console is easy to use and you can adjust the resistance as you actively ride. I have not used the Bluetooth feature yet and am not entirely sure of its point. I watch Netflix or Disney + while riding and this bike is virtually silent. Physics is a thing so the pedaling makes a slight sound but nothing your brain cannot tune out. Noise was the second most important thing for me and I would have returned it if I had to blast the TV to hear over the bike like my old fan one. Best Buy delivered the box to my home and offered to drop it off were I wanted it. Due to COVID-19 I asked them to just leave it in the foyer. They wore mask, stayed distanced away, and were incredibly kind. I would recommend this bike to any friend looking for a healthier way to live.

    This bike is so quiet! That's the first thing I noticed. I did need to watch a youtube tutorial on how to build it because the directions were a little confusing. I love that there are pre programmed rides in which you can adjust the length and difficulty. The device holder covers the screen but it's not difficult to move your device and look. I wish there was a light on the display but I have a $5 reading light I just clip to it. Not bad price for about 350 + tax (384ish) and I put some furniture pads on the non-wheel side because I move it every time I use it. Love it

    When reading the reviews on this stationary bike, one of the things that stood out was how quiet it was when riding it. And this is so true. It's also been a great bike for me to ride a couple of days a week. I'm just now getting back into shape after lower back issues. I bought this for cardio and relieve the stress on my back until I could run again. And, it's been great. Easy to put together, light weight & doesn't take up the space that an elliptical does. And, it's not complicated to use.

    For the price, it's a great bike! It gives a great workout, is easy to control, and joins with your tablet or phone via Bluetooth so you can run stationary bike scenery programs. However, the top plate the covers the body didn't snap down properly in my case (it covers it, and doesn't slide off, but is technically loose), and is slightly off-center between the seat and the computer. None of these cons make it remotely unusable, though, and I've enjoyed my workouts on it.

    I am very pleased with my purchase! It is small enough to fit anywhere in my household and yet still provides a very good workout! Yes, it does suck having to put it all together, but luckily I was able to and I am not a handy person. I would totally recommend this product to anyone looking to find an exercise bike that is not going to take up much space.

    Very easy to assemble and sturdy. It comes with preloaded workouts and can pair via Bluetooth with different apps. Overall it’s been great to have during the colder months when it’s difficult to work out in the outdoors. It may not be a Peloton, but you can probably get as much benefit from it for a fraction of the cost.
