Although the
Schwinn 230 2016 Recumbent Bike does NOT offer Bluetooth connectivity, it does
have more on-board workout programs and more resistance levels than the newer
2020 model, so there’s still plenty to keep you challenged. The 2016 model has 22 built-in programs and
20 resistance levels compared to the 2020’s 13 built-in programs and 16
resistance levels.
Besides the
Bluetooth connectivity, the newer Schwinn 230 2020 Recumbent Exercise Bike’s
console has been updated with a single large 5.5” LCD screen compared to the
2016’s smaller dual screens (3” x 5” & 1” x 5”). The older 2016’s console does have a couple
of features which are not included in the newer 2020 model including: a USB
port, acoustic chambered speakers with MP3 input, and a cooling fan.

Both consoles display standard workout data as you exercise including Time, Speed, Distance, RPM, Calories burned, and Heart-rate. Data is switchable between Miles or KMs.
To help you stay
within your target heart-rate zone, both the Schwinn 230 2020 and 2016
Recumbent Bikes feature Contact Pulse Grip heart-rate sensors built into the
handlebars each side of the seat. The
newer 2020 bike also offers Telemetry heart-rate monitoring (chest strap NOT
included).
Ergonomically
designed, both the Schwinn 230 2020 and 2016 Recumbent Exercise Bikes feature a
walk-through frame design to make it easy to mount and dismount from the
seat. The seat is the same on both bikes
– large and contoured with supporting backrest and ventilated to help keep you
cool as you cycle. The seat is adjustable
for different rider heights on both bikes with Schwinn’s easy-to-adjust Slider
Seat Rail System – simply use the Adjust Lever to bring the seat closer/lower
towards the pedals or further/higher away from the pedals.
