I purchased this bike a little over one year ago. Not too long after using it, the pulse indicater quit working-not a big deal. However, the resistance settings have now quit working, which means it either functions at an extremely high resistance, or no resistance at all. I have spoken to Schwinn, and they need me to open the thing up, which is going to require my buying some type of "crank collar", which is apparently necessary to remove the pedal so I can get inside to view the motor. I'm not too optimistic about the outcome on this. In closing, the bike worked well when it worked, but now it is useless. I frankly thought Schwinn was a product name that would be more reliable. I hope that my experience is an aberration, and that the others that have given this bike a good review will not run into the same problems down the road...
Schwinn 202 Recumbent Exercise Bike is not recommended by Disappointed21515431
Quality and performance at a great value. The Schwinn® 202 recumbent bike is backed by over 100 years of cycling heritage, quality and performance and is exclusive to Sears. The Schwinn® 202 recumbent bike comes with a heavy 9kg flywheel, normally found on higher end bikes, which gives a feel more like an outdoor cycle. Another comfort consideration is the convenient side location of the grip heart rate rather than near the console. This allows you to maintain better positioning while using.
