The Schwinn Active 10 Series shuns excess frills, complicated computer programs and prohibitive expense and is a solid option for those in the market for an entry-level exercise bike.

This Schwinn model gets by on the bare essentials while still providing a comfortable, nearly noiseless and effective cardio workout. The compact design takes up considerably less space than a treadmill or elliptical trainer and is ideal for apartments and other cramped living spaces.

Despite the diminutive build the bike is sturdy and features smooth, quiet belt drive operation and eight levels of magnetic resistance.

The console tracks speed, time, RPM, distance, pulse and calories burned. There are 11 preset programs to add variety to your rides.

The display is digital and easy to read but does not incorporate multiple windows or the back light feature seen on higher end models.

Heart rate is monitored through grip sensors on the bike’s handlebars.

This model does not include a folding mechanism but the size and light weight make it relatively easy to move and store.

Although the user capacity is stated at 275 pounds, in reality this bike is best suited for average weights between 100 and 200 pounds.

The Schwinn Active Series 10 combines sound design and an adequate number of basic features at a reasonable price. For an even more affordable option — the lowest priced upright that we can comfortably recommend — see the Marcy PL-43211 Upright Mag Cycle.
