I have to say that it is unnatural for me to write a review for something that I've bought on-line but for some reason this experience was significant enough that I feel compelled to share it.
Here are the highlights.
1) I wanted to surprise my wife with a Spinning bike as she is an exercise enthusiast and just didn't have the time to get to the gym. We have three kids.
2) I started searching on line, reading reviews, looking at websites, and decided to purchase a Schwinn IC Pro. I found a an offer on AMZ, through Warehouse Deals and paid about $100 dollars off of what others were selling the same bike for. This bike was new, but the box was damaged, hence the price reduction. The notes said it was factory sealed, so I figured GREAT...a new bike and I get to save a bit of $.
In a number of reviews, I read that folks were upset that the bike didn't come with the brake lube and the bolt grease. I didn't sweat it too much initially...Read more

I wanted to buy a Schwinn IC Pro when they first came out but a few years went by. Newer models don't really refine the proven design. So I bought one that was used. Once I wiped it down, I had to replace a few parts. Broken water bottle ($5 to replace), warn levelers ($8 total to replace all four). A few days later I found the courage to clean/lube the chain...proved to be trivial. I highly recommend this bike to anyone who wants to spin at home and wants a spin bike that is reliable and well designed. I paid $400 (delivered) for mine. I noticed the prices for used ones went up in the past couple years. I guess that shows how good these are. :)

So far this bike works AWESOME! I've had it for 2 months and my family uses everyday. It's silky smooth, quiet, user friendly, and so far durable! It's relatively easy to move on carpet and it ....just feels right!
