First, we saved a bundle buying from this site. Then, after a couple of months, it has nearly paid for itself since we could finally drop our gym membership. Having a bike at home is luxurious for oh so many reasons. No more stu..." Read Full Review »

"I have had Schwinn recumbent bikes in the past and have enjoyed their high quality, especially considering the reasonable price.

"Both my husband and I have enjoyed this recumbent. It's easy to use and a smooth ride!

I especially like the "GOOD JOB!" message that appears when you reach your goal. Also like the walk-thru feature instead of having to hike your leg over a bar - to the young and fit - it wouldn't seem like a co …"  Read Full Review »

"This is a great bike. Very smooth and solid. The only minor problem I see is with the heart rate monitor. When you place your hands on the sensors, the initial reading starts at 72 and slowly works its way up to whatever your actual heart rate might be.
