Schwinn 240 Recumbent Exercise Bike - A Cardio Workout To Suit You

Want to save money on monthly gym fees and get in shape at the same time? Climb on board the comfortable Schwinn 240 Recumbent Exercise Bike. It offers a compact design and the feel of a more traditional outdoor bike, while relying on core stabilizing muscles to balance your body weight.

There's a seating system with an adjustable padded ergonomic seat, dual-position lumbar support and console to ensure comfort in use for every user, no matter what their size.

The Schwinn 240 Recumbent Exercise Bike features16 resistance levels to ensure you get the exact level of workout that's perfect for you. There's also a 20-pound flywheel and an Eddy Current Brake (ECB) resistance system.

It has a greater number of programs than most other comparable models, and it can recall your user information - a huge improvement over other models where every time a different user comes along you have to reset all your information.

The adjustable handlebars and console and walk-through frame make it comfortable and easy to use, while the water bottle holder and reading rack mean your exercise sessions can be entertaining too. A magazine storage rack under the seat keeps your reading material handy, while the transport wheels make the Schwinn easy to move around. It will take a user up to a maximum weight of 300 lbs.

The assembly and use booklets measure W 5.5" x H 8.5", and come printed on high quality glossy paper - but the small text and pictures may be hard to read for some. Remember, there is always a solution - and in this case all you need do is go to Schwinn's website and download the PDFs of the assembly and use manuals. The pages will print out on 8.5" x11" paper with bigger diagrams and text. The written instructions come in English and French - just print out the language you need, and start your build.

How long will it take you? Perhaps an hour to unpack the parts, organize them, clean up, and recycle the waste. Maybe two hours to assemble the bike properly, plus a little longer to make personal adjustments to the seat, pedal straps, and console on the assembled bike. One of the Amazon reviewers has been kind enough to provide their own assembly instructions which you can find on the product page at Amazon.com.

The model is nice looking, and easy to move around with the transport wheels. It's very sturdy, very quiet, and the build quality means it will last for a long time. The Schwinn 240 Recumbent Exercise Bike may well be the exercise bike solution you're looking for.
