Schwinn - 230 Recumbent Bike - Gray

This Bike is a replacement for 15 year old Recumbent Bike. I reviewed several Bikes and this model fit my exercise needs the best. Being on sale $449.00 instead of a list price of $699.00 made the purchase affordable and within my budget. I had Best Buy Geek Squad deliver it and the delivery was on time for the date requested. Assembly was easy at just under two hours. Overall the quality is what I am used to getting from Schwinn and this Bikes quality is excellent. Since this Bike was quite an improvement over my previous Bike there was a slight adjustment to find the exercise programs that I like. Have used it twice and am satisfied with the programs offered. My only suggestion would be to add a backlit LCD for the control panel. You should not have to spend $200.00 more to get the next model up just for a back lit LCD.

Nice recumbent bike. The seat is hard so you may want to use a cushion. The bike is quiet and smooth. Took me about 2 hours to put it together. All and all I like it so far. Gives you a good workout, more so it seems than the exercise bikes with the seat up much higher.

This bike is super great! I have bad knees, bone on bone and the ride on this bike is smooth and pain free! It’s silent and easy to built! The seat is like heaven, comfy! It really helps all my stiff joints...Best buy I’ve made for myself! 100%

The unit is quiet and works as described but the unit was delivered with a misaligned plate, holding the control console, welded to the handlebar mast. So the console tilts on a strong angle rather than straight up and down. All warranty service goes through Nautilus, owner of the Schwinn brand, and there is a very long (50+ minute) wait to connect with support. They replaced the part for me but provided a part of a model year 2013 bike which had a different console so the holes do not align. Nautilus cannot seem to figure out how to get the right handlebar mast for the model bike currently sold by Best Buy.

We love it. Great bike for the money. Easy decision. Thanks

The Schwinn Recumbent Bike fits into space in gym and is easy to operate.

I belonged to Golds Gym when Covid started and they made it clear they were not going to do anything to make the gym safe once they were able to open again. I didn’t go to work out for about 20 months and got way out of shape. When they said they were going to close I thought I needed a way to do at least some kind of work out at home. I was riding this kind of a bike at the gym so I bought one. It has been great for about two months 45 minutes a day. Took about an hour to put it together not bad even looked at the directions once or twice.

I really like it as it's virtually silent. I really don't care about programs, so just a sturdy and quiet bike is fine for me. I ride it for long periods like an hour to 1.5 hours at a time. For short periods the seat is fine, but it gets uncomfortable after about 45 minutes for me. I am just buying a cushion to make it more comfortable. Putting it together was relatively straight forward and takes about 2 hours. I only needed help for about 5 minutes during the assembly. The screen is a little hard to see in dim light, but that's not really a big deal to me. For the money, I think it's about as good as you can expect.
