Great basic bike with some nice extras
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great price for a basic exercise bike. Works smoothly and provides several programs but I like the ability to go in manual mode and set my own goals.

Great for indoor workouts
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Took some work to assemble. Getting the handlebars set and secure is a 2 person job. Once assembled it’s easy to use, com for table to ride, and a good workout.

Seat is plastic but it works
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bike was easy to out together. Does not feel like it’s strong quality since the seat is all plastic. Time will only tell after 6+ months but so far does the job

I am happy I bought this bike
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this bike. It is great to have in my house. It works well, it is quiet, comfortable, and it doesn’t have an order like the bikes at the gym. Yuck.

heart rate monitor doesn't work
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Aside from the handlebars being a tiny bit askew, (the guy didn't check that and was gone before I sat on it) I love riding it. The heart rate monitor does not work it seems. It goes from 88 up to 210 in 2 seconds and I know my heart is not doing that. It is comfortable and seems very well made.

Good purchase
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The seat is not padded and the straps weren't long enough to strap over my shoes. The peddles were not wide enough,but I was still pleased with the purchase.

Terrible customer service to get the product fixed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would give zero stars if I could. First, let me say that we LOVE this bike, but we HATE the customer service experience of trying to get it fixed. We purchased this in Nov. 2023 and it stopped working March 2025. We have jumped through hoops with numerous emails back and forth, trying to get help to get it working again. The first thing we were told to try is a new adapter. We had to pay $40 ($20 for the part and $20 for fed ex shipping) and then that did not fix it. I was refunded $15 (thankfully), and then was told to call a number to get a tech to come diagnose. It was going to be betweein $145 and $200 for someone to come out, diagnose, then order a part if needed, pay for said part, and then pay for someone to install/fix it. This is TERRIBLE customer service - too many steps and too much money. PLEASE I just want to use this expensive bike! UGH. I will not buy another Schwinn product again - DO BETTER for your customers!!

Excerise Bike
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this in March and so far my husband is loving it. Rides it everyday. He has not worked with the programs, he just sets the resistence he wants and rides for the number of miles he wants for that day.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.i like the bike but sometimes when i ride for 30 minutes the time bike says i ride might only be 12 minutes. the person i spoke to in customer service said it might need an adjustment by taking back behind montior off which needs a scredriver and i am not handy as i paid someone to put bike together but otherwise i li8ke the small bike and i am happy with it.

Happy with great new Shwinn 230 recumbent bike
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The bike was rated very good on internet in its price range and I was so glad Beat Buy sold it because of the delivery and installation services well worth the cost. The bike is as good as the one in the gym I no linger go to. It works perfectly and gives me several programs and all the info I want on time speed calories and nore. The seat is very comfortable and good for my back. It does not take up much space. I can ride, look out the window or watch tv or use my iPad which fits even in case although it blocks the bike’s screen. I see no reason for getting the much more expensive bikes. Recommend highly.
