Schwinn IC3 Indoor Cycling Bike

Schwinn IC3 Indoor Cycling Bike Overview

With much of our studio-style cycling activities literally off the bounds in light of the pandemic, buying an at-home exercise bike is one of the best fitness investments that you can make. If you are an indoor-cycling devotee, you will certainly love the versatility, premium feel, and innovation of the Schwinn IC3 Indoor Cycling Bike.

This is a low-impact and cardio-kicking spin bike that is perfectly suited for the indoor cycling enthusiast looking for affordable quality. It has a premium feel to it and adequately delivers on those high-energy and low-impact training regimens. It takes you through the paces rigorously enough. You will get the feel of hitting the pedals of a real bike down the hills. You won’t splurge on this. It is a mid-priced exercise bike but with sufficient bells and whistles to successfully replicate that cardio-kicking high-adrenaline stationary cycling at home, including in small spaces.

The Schwinn IC3 Indoor Cycling Bike has a somewhat minimalist look and feel to it. It is a relatively light exercise bike, too. Its 40-pound flywheel is powered by a powerful but smooth belt drive that is conveniently relatively silent. The belt also provides an infinitely variable resistance.

It ships with dual SPD pedals that also come with toe cages as well as clips. This spin bike is fully adjustable with a well-ventilated race-style seat. Of course, you can’t imagine an aggressive indoor cycling regimen without plenty of water so it is kitted with an oversized bottle holder that also features the integrated media holder.

This Schwinn spin bike features a lot of the tech that you would expect in a premium level spin bike including a decent LCD console and Bluetooth connectivity. There are multiple grip positions that allow you to fully leverage every minute of your workout.

LCD Console

The LCD console in the Schwinn IC3 Indoor Cycling Bike is pretty decent. It may not be ultra-modern and cutting edge but it does the job of helping you monitor the key fitness metrics including heart rate, distance, calories, time along with the RPMs.

Padded Handlebars

We absolutely love this feature. If you like stretching your spin bike outs, you will want a comfortable cycle seat and handlebars to keep you comfortable on those extended intense rides. We think the padding is satisfactory and will give you adequate comfort.

Race-Style Seat

To go with the padded and comfortable handlebars, the Schwinn IC3 Indoor Cycling Bike also has cozy race-stye seats that are well ventilated. The seats can also be adjusted both vertically and horizontally for maximum comfort on your intense workout rides.
