Keep in mind you do have to pay a separate monthly subscription fee if you want to use the Peloton app with your exercise bike. I personally test each piece of equipment and take into account the footprint, durability, adjustability, and overall workout experience. In this Schwinn IC4 review, I’ll give you the lowdown on app connectivity, assembly, and how this bike rode for me. In fact, I like this bike so much, it made my list of the best Peloton alternatives. Despite its ability to comfortably accommodate users from 4’11” to 6’8” this indoor bike doesn’t take up much more space than comparable bicycles. Once the shipping company picks up the shipment from the factory we’ll email you the tracking information.
Shipping is free and generally takes 2-3 weeks, which is about how long mine took to get here. Although this indoor bike is completely customizable for a comfortable ride, it takes a while to adjust it to your liking, and if there are multiple users for this bike, it may be frustrating. With so many features to love, we are a little disappointed that there’s no display on the bike for tracking miles, calories burned, and other tracking details. The padded contoured seat is 10.5” x 6” x 2,” which is a comfortable size for many users but it’s also easy enough to swap out if you prefer a smaller or larger saddle. Best Buy has our favorite basic exercise bike on the market for a whopping $300 price cut, today only. This frame keeps the stationary bike light enough that it can be moved, while its design keeps it sturdy and ensures it can handle users up to 350 pounds.
All Schwinn AC™ indoor bikes come standard with Double Link pedals with SPD and toe-clip combinations to accommodate both cycling cleats and regular athletic shoes. The bikes are also compatible with the Schwinn Triple Link™ pedal upgrade. Triple Link Pedals accommodate Look Delta and SPD style cleats to simulate an outdoor riding experience. They also easily convert to accept traditional athletic shoes with the snap-in locking toe clips. The powerful performance monitor connects via Bluetooth to a wide range of apps, including our own free app ErgData.
The monitor shows you a wide range of data, including pace, watts, stroke rate and Calories and automatically stores this information in either its internal memory or a USB drive. The Schwinn IC4 isn’t exactly cheap, but in our opinion, it is worth the cost. It provides excellent value when you consider that it performs roughly on par with big-name home-studio competition while still being much less expensive. Thanks to a 10-year frame, 3-year mechanical and electrical parts, and a 1-year labor warranty, it is even more worth it. With the exception of speed inaccuracies and the lack of a dedicated screen, the IC4 is one of our absolute favorite stationary cycles.
Bring better health into your life by bringing the Schwinn IC3 Indoor Stationary Exercise Cycling Training Bike into your home.

A stronger drive train and carbon blue belt make for easy maintenance while delivering an authentic riding experience indoors.
