Received with damaged electronics harness adapter
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Electronics harness adapter in base (black used to connect electronics from base up the neck to the console) was damaged upon reception of the bike. Clip that holds the cable in base was broken. Appears to be broken pre-shipping, as the adapter is tied off within the base with no easy access to be hit during shipping.

Great bike frustrating connectivity
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this bike at a reduced price to shed some pandemic pounds, setup was really easy even with just one person. Bike feels well out together no creaks runs very smoothly. My one glaring issue is that there is no information on how to connect fitness apps over Bluetooth connection. Seems like an incredibly simple thing to provide. As it stands Bluetooth is basically a gimmick to say they have it but it's funtionally useless docking 2 stars because I was looking forward to having my workouts managed in one app and was a reason for me choosing this product over other options. Pretty disappointed in this but of false advertising

Pedal and other issues
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not a bad bike overall but this model (130) needs some modifications. The monitor needs a light. It is hard to see/read. The seat needs more cushion. The HR monitor is worthless - it is off by as much as 35 bpm. The biggest problem I had with this bike is the pedals. They are too small and my heel hits the pedal arm as I am pedaling. I remedied that problem by buying larger pedals from a local fitness store.

Don't buy!!!!!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this bike about 8 months ago. Worked great until it hit the 7th month mark. I use this bike 3 to 4 times a week about 40 mins each time, so I am not killing it too much ( I thought) The motor stopped working, so there was no more resistance. I called schwinn I was on the phone on hold over an hour. CS was great and kind, she told me there was an issue with the motor on this unit. They are sending me a new motor which I have to install, no big deal I am a tech. How long will this motor last another seven months. For the price there are many better options. I guess the people that gave it great reviews don't use the bike enough.
