Peloton received 35 reports of broken seat posts during use, a number of which led to falls and injury. The Peloton Bike is expensive and requires a subscription ($44 a month) to function maximally. Without it, your options shrink to three 45-minute classes, plus a basic “ride” mode that allows you to pedal and adjust resistance.
The Schwinn IC4 is the same bike as the Bowflex C6, which we previously recommended as a Peloton alternative within our full review of the Peloton Bike. Although the two bikes are generally priced similarly, we recommend that you compare their prices before buying. Even though from this point our schwinn 3 wheel bike discussion focuses on the IC4, we’ve tested both bikes, and we recommend both. Upright handlebars and soft saddle provide both easy handling and a pleasure ride. The spacious, fully detachable vinyl-located wire basket holds a load of packages and comes with convenient handles for
easy carrying.
And I have taken more than a hundred indoor-cycling classes (both in-studio and at home) since 2007. I’m also a certified personal trainer (NASM) with a particular interest in endurance sports. One former Peloton Bike owner told us that, at 5-foot-1, she struggled with fit even after moving the schwinn exercise bikes bike’s seat all the way forward. This is a fairly common complaint among shorter riders. You can find extenders, made by companies unaffiliated with Peloton, that are intended to rectify the issue (we have not tried them). And one DIY solution involves affixing a pool noodle to the handlebars.

The handlebars are wide and low and have a subtle texture and a comfortable diameter and overall feel. We rode the bike with cycling shoes compatible with its SPD clips; the bike also has toe-cage pedals for use with non-cycling shoes. A big draw with these bikes is the ability to ride along with an app, to approximate an in-person indoor-cycling class.
