4 out of 5The Schwinn Airdyne Comp's resistance-based braking creates zero friction and considerably less maintenance than other, more complex systems. Sealed cartridge bearings provide a smooth ride, reliability and extra-long life. ....read more

Schwinn Airdyne Evo Comp Exercise BikeI previously owned an Schwinn Airdyne for many years.So i decided to get the Airdyne Evo Comp exercise bike.The Evo is everything it was advertised! The drive belt is a plus over the chain. It’s definitely smoother with less noise.I really enjoy the workout while exercising with the Evo.The Evo is all it is advertised.THE only cheap thing is THE WAY YOU MOUNT THE COMPUTER! Four screws you screw into plastic slots.Very easy to strip.Otherwise a great exercise bike.

Great Schwinn Airdyne Evo Com Bike
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I find the Airdyne Evo Comp exercise bike gives a smooth, quiet ride and the controlled air-cooling is easier to mount due to the smaller fanwheel compared to the orignial model. I’m 82 and find it is fun to ride. Given the terrible weather we’ve had this summer I was still able to exercise daily. I look forward to using the machine for my daily exercise for a long time.
The machine arrived quickly and was easy to assemble.

Great low impact exercise bike!
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I highly recommend this product to anyone including those who may have a hard time using exercise equipment due to physical restrictions. The bike seems to adjust to your particular workout requirement by increasing the resistance (fan) as you push your workout level. Great product although the main frame weld was a little crooked and I needed all the adjustment to level the bike. Well constructed and good quality materials other than that one flaw.

It’s great once you get it together…
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Ordered mine from Amazon during a promotion and got it for a steal so I couldn’t resist. $615 out the door with free shipping. It came sooner than expected and everything was in the box as it should be. ALL EXCEPT THE ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS!!! I googled for a bit and found a detailed parts breakdown and used that to assemble it. Once assembled it was everything I expected for the price. Works great. Very solid. No complaints with the product at all. I am mechanically savvy and have a garage full of tools so all the issues you see from other posters did not affect me as much, but I do have some suggestions for improvement.
Few recommendations for Schwinn:
1. Schwinn needs to post the assembly instructions on their website (only the user manual can be found there).
2. They need to tell you upfront that it requires metric tools including metric allen wrenches. Not all your online consumers will have these.
3. They need to drop a flier in the box indicating that the fan cage CAN move during shipping and force it into the rubber belt and show you how to adjust it.
4. They need to realize that much of their business in the future will be online and should focus their support accordingly.

Excellent Choice Exercise Bike
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
I’m currently in cardiac rehab at a local hospital where I’ve become attached to the Airdyne Evo Comp bike in their workout room. I recently purchased one on the web for home use after my rehab sessions end. Prior to purchase I read the reviews posted here which were very helpful in the assembly of the bike which was accomplished with minimal difficulty. Key points gleaned that helped me as follows:
1) Familiarize yourself with the hardware by grouping the washers and nuts with their bolts by studying the assembly drawings and the parts list. The one error I found on the parts list that caused some confusion is Reference 3 that calls for 2 Levelers and not four which are provided.
2) Two people do make it easier to attach the Front Stabilizer.
3) IMPORTANT! Look inside the fan cage where the belt passes through the cage belt opening to make sure the belt top and bottom is centered in the opening providing equal clearance. In my case I found the bottom of the belt rubbimg against the lower edge of the cage opening. Corrective action is to lossen the three screws securing the cage to the frame. Access to the screw at the bottom is through the clearance hole provided in the center of the Front Stabilizer Bar. Once these screws are loosened the cage can be rotated to provide proper belt clearance.
The one negative is the computer does not recognize my Omron Pulse Monitor signal which the two Airdynes at Cardiac Rehab do.

Nice Bike
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
This bike is quieter than the other two Airdyne’s I’ve had in the past. It has the smaller fan and is shorter in length to fit into a smaller space. The computer is nice but is confusing to use if you want to set what parameters to use. Overall this is a nice bike.

We are satisfied with the evo comp bike.We saved $250.00 by purchasing it on line.The directions in the package made it easy to assemble, take the time to read the written directions and assemble in that order.The evo comp. replaced our very old(and still working) airdyne that we sold on craigs list. the evo comp is so smooth and quiet compared to our old airdyne, and you do not have the wind blowing in your face as the old one did. We looked at and tested other types of exercise bikes and ecliptical machines before choosing the evo comp. It gets used twice a day, and is a enjoyable exercise machine. We are happy with the evo comp purchase. every thing is working properly so far. The only thing I had concern about was the excessive shipping damage to the box, and after opening it and inspecting the parts every thing was fine.
