Customer Review
I can not comment on assembly since I actually purchased this bike from a Schwinn bike shop. I wish I did purchase here since I would have saved 0 from the retail price. After reading the reviews here I would have then taken the bike to the shop for assembly since they sell and assemble many of these bikes. It seems if building for the 1st time this may cause problems.
Anyway this bike is built like a tank, everything is solid and sturdy! I am 42 and over weight and finally wanted to take charge by adding a work out plan to my daily activities. I really do not eat that much, I just had ZERO activity in my schedule since I work all day in a office and play only board games and computer games for recreation. For the last couple of months the Airdyme brings a healthy daily work-out into my daily schedule. I am able to ride for approximately 1 hour each day minimum, sometimes twice for 30minutes each. Since I have in my office where I can easily hook-up a headset to my computer I often will get on and do even 15 min sessions through-out the day while watching a movie or TV (pc has a TV card). I can see myself doing 2+ hour week-end sessions on this bike as I build myself upwards, for example while watching a full length movie or televised game. Having Media entertainment is vital for me since time goes by so fast and I don't focus on bike's computer read-out, and it takes zero time out of daily schedule. I'm not really focused on weight loss or diet so not really counting calories burned, however I'm 100% confident I will start seeing results in the long run since I previously NEVER worked out. Coincidently since I am now more health conscious due to my Airdyme! I have made some small changes in my daily diet. For example instead of getting a foot-long Italian Subway I now get a 6 inch Tuna at Subway! I now may buy a juice or drink water instead of drinking a soda, etc... However for the most part I didn't want to make significant changes to my diet since I really wanted a longterm life-time plan that simply added an active work-out plan. So those on a diet may even see faster results:) My experience and results rate 5 stars, with the below pluses:
-ZERO soreness in joints - smooth full body work-out! This is why I choose this over a tread-mill or jogging.
-Computer is simple while showing basic progress. Bike itself is simple, just get on and ride!
-Work-out quality is superb, after a 30+ minute session I'm sweating crazy with the sweat starting at 10-15mins (again I am out of shape!)
-I can ride anytime and it is compact enough I can place in my home office so others will not be bothered.
-This takes ZERO time out of my daily schedule since I can ride AT HOME while watching a movie or TV which I do anyway.
-No special equipment or special clothing required. Often I ride with sweat socks and slippers!
Really Zero Cons:
-Seat does take getting used too (which I have!), however I will take slightly sore butt over sore knees and ankles any day!
-Can be noisy, but I resolved this with a headset plugged into PC for Media entertainment. Not a con at all since almost any machine will produce some noise.
Overall this very well may be the best purchase I have made over the last 20 years, which even includes my home! Ultimately I may decide to include additional work out machines but I can see that the Airdyme will always be apart of a daily work-out schedule! I was able to test this bike compared to others at the shop where I purchased and quickly determined the higher price was worth it! This bike felt more comfortable while others felt less sturdy and secure. This bike is not intended for cross-bike training but rather a good entry-level full-body work-out machine.
Schwinn Airdyne Exercise Bike - John Rogge -
Schwinn Airdyne is of excellent quality. Directions for assembly could be better. Best to have two people to put it together. Does an excellent job of exercising both upper and lower body. Integrated fan keeps you cooled off. I would recommend this and would buy again. Purchased from Amazon at a very good price.
