Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike Order Now


I am very happy with my Schwinn 231 Recumbent bike. It is very quiet. The programs are very easy to figure out. Our 14 year old put it together with no trouble. Would highly recommend this bike to young and old. KMCS Get more detail about Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike.

Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike Buy Now


I did a lot of research before deciding which recumbent to buy. Originally I was going to get the Schwinn 230, but then I decided that the 231 would be worth the extra $100.

Then I found out that a local home/garden/tool department store carries a bike called the SR23 recumbent (exactly the same as this, minus the fan, available only here). I got it on sale for the same price as this 231, plus you can order it shipped to the store for free (some locations may even have it in stock).

Why did I do this? Because the #1 complaint with this product seems to be that it gets damaged in transit with home deliveries. And I also wanted to make a purchase this big some place that has an actual store front where I can go if I ever have any problems.

So if you wanted a different alternative but a comparable bike, look around. It's out there... I just can't tell you where :).Get more detail about Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike.

Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike Best Quality


The bike came in a box that wasn't beat up, but the left shround of the motor hosuing was completely cracled and busted up. I called Custoemr Service and just like everyone else said, they were great and shipped me a new part. After replacgin the left shroud, it was obvious that the right was broken too, but I wouldn't have known until I got the left replaced. So it was back to customer service for hte right shroud. That has arrived, but I haven't had the time to replace it yet.Get more detail about Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike.

Schwinn 231 Recumbent Exercise Bike Get it now!


I bought this bike about 2 weeks ago. Amazon called with a choice of delivery dates, which was very convenient. It was delivered with no problems. My husband put it together for me and was extremely pleased with the easy to follow directions, and that a set of tools with everything needed to assemble it was included in the package. Thanks to those who posted about jotting down the serial # during assembly - good hint. When people wrote that this unit is "quiet" when in use, they weren't kidding. What a pleasure. I've only been using it about a week and half - starting out slow a few minutes each day, and adding time as I go. I still haven't figured out all the programs, but I like that I can do just straight biking, with various levels, or the pre-set programs. I've been doing "riding in the park". So far I would recommend this bike.

The walk-through design of this bike is great for individuals who have had recent joint replacement. On many bikes, there is a high center which necessitates lifting the leg up and over, causing a potential tripping hazard.

Exceptional stability...doesn't wobble as you get on/off the bike.

Loads of fun programs that are easy to use.

Great for short/tall individuals...i'm 5'1" and it still had adjustment remaining for shorter individuals.

Great experience with Amazon. Bike arrived promptly in excellent condition.
