About Recumbent Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don’t take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out.
The term recumbent literally means “lying down.” Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

The Schwinn Active 20 Recumbent Bike arrived.
The seat was not adjustable.
I contacted the supplier who sent me a replacement bike
an d instructions to get rid of (trash) the old bike.
I want amazon.com to know why I buy from them.
Thank you amazon.com

I got this for my wife as an early Christmas present just before Thanksgiving. We have both been using it. Neither of us have any complaints thus far. The only reason I didn’t give it four stars is that we haven’t had it for very long so I don’t know about it’s durability.

The bike was super easy to put together! Probably took me about an hour by myself. I wish the seat was a little longer, but overall I’m quite satisfied with the product. I was looking at the ones with the fans, but when I checked those out at Sports Authority, they really weren’t worth the extra money.
The bike really is super quiet! The programs are easy to use. I think at the highest setting even a pro could get a descent cardio workout.
All in all its a good bike, but really only worth about $199. Anything over $200 for this would be too much.
My only problem was really with UPS. I wasn’t home when they tried to deliver it. They ALWAYS have left the product at my door, but since I live on the 2nd floor they were too lazy to bring this one upstairs. They left the box at the complex office and I ended up having to pay someone $30 to bring it to my door!

Easy to use and adjusts pretty well for different size users. Not quite as easy to peddle as bikes available in the health clubs and no arm action.

I read the reviews before I purchased this item… The gloom and doom things – such as a bad smell, etc. – were completely untrue…. It is exactly what I needed, and I am thankful for it. I am a heart patient who did the treadmill 6 days a week in addition to Curves 3 days a week. When my knee gave out and I fell off the treadmill, ending up on the floor behind it, I knew I had to do something. After that I heard of several people who were in nursing homes, etc. from falling off treadmills. I do realize now they have strings you hitch to yourself to turn them off, but mine was an older type without that. Therefore, I am most grateful for the recumbent bike which my daughter put together with a minimum of trouble.
