The bike is basically suitable for a body height of 150 cm, as the saddle can be adjusted both horizontally and vertically, allowing it to be adapted to smaller body sizes. The seat and handlebar adjustment allows the position to be customised to ensure an ergonomic riding position.
With a height of 155 cm and a stride length of 70 cm, you can use the bike as it has a vertically and horizontally adjustable saddle rail and multi-position adjustable handlebars. This allows it to be adapted to smaller body sizes. The exact dimensions are approx. 114 cm long, 58-59 cm wide and 125 cm high, with an adjustable saddle and handlebars for optimum ergonomics. This means that the bike is also suitable for your body size.
The bike is suitable for small people, as it offers adjustable seat and handlebars for maximum comfort and fit. However, it's advisable to ensure the minimum ceiling height requirement is met based on your height.
The specifications say China. As far as I know, Schwinn produces most of its bikes in Asia.
However, I can highly recommend this bike, the quality is top!
This bike should be suitable for small people, as it allows for vertical and horizontal seat adjustments, which can accommodate different body sizes. However, the overall dimensions and design might require some adjustments to fit comfortably for someone who is 1.6 meters tall. It's advisable to check the specific dimensions and adjustability features to ensure a comfortable fit.
For a spinning bike like the model in question, a cardio belt using 5 kHz wireless transmission is recommended. This allows precise measurement of heart rate during exercise. A chest belt compatible with this frequency is therefore the best choice. However, it is important to note that the belt is not usually included with the bike and must be purchased separately.
Heart rate measurement via a chest strap is generally possible. However, sync to Strava is probably only possible via "detours" (e.g. recording an indoor bike activity via Garmin Connect). However, I have never tried the latter.
The bike is delivered partially assembled. You have to fit the saddle, stem and pedals yourself. As I had a bad experience with my previous bike, I booked the assembly service and have never regretted this decision. I have been using the bike almost every day for several years and sometimes for several hours at a time.
Yes, if you unscrew the resistance lever completely, the pedals turn almost in a vacuum. I've had this model for 8 months now, with 3000+ km covered, and it's great. Resistant, stable... I can only recommend it.
Put some WD40 on it. Spray a little bit on a paper towel. Hold the paper towel on the fly wheel while turning the pedal with your other hand. It solved it for me.
Unfortunately, the chest strap is not included. Any Polar chest strap (frequency range 4.5 to 5.5 kHz) that is not coded can be used. For example this one: Polar H9 size M-XXL
The delivery dates given are estimated. If you click on the date, you will see that the information is "without guarantee". Sometimes manufacturers and suppliers cannot meet their deadlines.
So if it says "four to six weeks", yes, probably. Maybe it will come in four weeks, maybe in five or six, maybe a little later. During the pandemic, everyone built their home gym anyway and everything was completely sold out.
We do work with daily prices and it is quite possible that the prices change within a short period of time, but this price fluctuation is relatively high. Therefore, I have forwarded the request so that it can be checked. But basically, the current price in the online shop applies.
