About 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. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

2 out of 5 stars.  Poor placement of seat adjustment knob, August 9, 2010
I had read many of the reviews prior to trying the equipment out at two stores. I found the ride smooth except for one major, major problem: my calf kept hitting the seat height adjustment knob, which was positioned on the side of the seat post instead of in front or behind like every other manufacturer that I saw. Now maybe I have large calves (I'm a runner, not a biker) but even when I tried to position my legs away from the center, feeling awkward, my right calf kept hitting that poorly placed knob. WHAT WERE THE DESIGNERS THINKING!
I never have this problem on any other exercise bike manufacturers equipment. Nautilus, which is made by the same manufacturer, seems to have the same issue. Very strange.

5 out of 5 stars.  As Advertised, March 28, 2010
Bought the Schwinn 120 Upright a couple of weeks ago. Took about an hour to assemble. Unlike some of the other reviewers experience, all the parts were in good condition. I am extremely satisfied with the product. It is very well constructed and stable. I am 6'2" and my knees don't hit the center console (unless my knees are angled inward, which is not how one should pedal). I am an avid bicyclist and find the ride very smooth and whisper quiet. I like the variety of programs included as well as the option of creating my own. All in all, this is a great product at a very reasonable price.

4 out of 5 stars.  initial impressions of Schwinn 120 exercise bike, March 4, 2010
Item arrived very promptly after placing order but it arrived damaged. Apparently this has been a fairly common problem shipping this bike. forCycling offered to refund the entire amount if I returned it. They offered a 30% refund if I kept it. I did the latter, then called Nautilus/Schwinn. They are honoring the warranty and sending me the replacement part necessary to repair the bike.

Otherwise, bike is operationally fine. Instruction manual for programming various exercise regimens is very poorly written. Twice I spent about 30 minutes on the phone with the Nautilus/Schwinn customer service people before I finally got the hang of it. The customer service people were very nice but actually didn't know much about this particular issue. We just worked together over the phone as we both read the manual and tried to figure it out.

I think I got a good bike for the money--really good considering the 30% refund from forCycling for the damage goods!

4 out of 5 stars.  Sufficiently good for its price, February 16, 2010
Comes with necessary tools and took me only 45 min to assemble it. Seat is too wide for me to work out for more than one hour. Foot strap design is not very good, it touches axis as you pedal.Otherwise this is sufficiently good for its reasonable price for the purpose of moderate indoor exercise during winter time.
