<\/a>AC Adapters on Schwinn Exercise Bikes<\/p><\/div>\n
I discovered that we did not specify this on our Schwinn 250 review pages and also that it was not even specified on the Amazon page or most other pages when I searched for this model.<\/p>\n
Well, I finally did confirm (via the owner and assembly manuals) that the AC Adapter is included with the New Schwinn 250 Recumbent<\/strong>. \u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n This question then made me wonder if the AC Adapters were included on the other mid-range and high-end Schwinn Exercise Bikes so I checked all of the “40” and “50” series models and found that the AC adapter (or power cord) is included on all of these models.<\/p>\n I have since updated\u00a0our Schwinn Exercise Bike Review pages to include this information. See the Schwinn 140<\/a>, and NEW Schwinn 150<\/a>, Uprights<\/strong> and the \u00a0Schwinn 240<\/a> and the NEW Schwinn 250<\/a> Recumbents<\/strong>\u00a0for the updates and\/or for the reviews and additional information.<\/p>\n Knee Care, Knee Problems and Cycling<\/em> – on Bikes and Exercise Bikes<\/strong><\/p>\n The second subject included in this article has to do with taking care of your knees while cycling. This includes cycling on outdoor bikes or on exercise bikes.<\/p>\n The woman that had asked me about the AC Adapters had also just mentioned that she was planning a “non-weight bearing exercise regimen<\/em>” that was necessary for her bad knee.<\/p>\n I have had some minor knee problems myself, \u00a0in the past, and have also had cycling friends that have occasionally had knee problems and I have looked\u00a0into this subject\u00a0before.<\/p>\n What I had found was that, if you have knee problems and need to reduce the the strain on your knee(s) while cycling, you should ride in lower gears (outdoor bikes) or at lower resistance levels (exercise bikes)\u00a0at a faster pace (higher rpms).<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n So I just passed this information on as an “FYI<\/em>” and was happy to get an email reply stating “That’s exactly what my Physical Therapist said!!”.<\/em><\/p>\n Thank you for your nice replies and for the updates.<\/p>\n \u00a0Rob<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I hope the subject for this post is not too confusing but I wanted to address both subjects that I discussed with a visitor to our site in\u00a0some recent emails. The first subject relates to Schwinn AC Adapters.\u00a0The first email … Continue reading
