5 Direto XR plus or minus 1.5 with the OTS maximum slope We can see they're a big improvement from 14% on the Direto 18% Direto X and 24% on the Direto XR Indicating it has a lot more braking strength on the newer models flywheel size We see a move up from 4.2 kilos in the two previous generations to 4.5 kilos with the generation 3 Direto XR And the move up in weight is a 7% increase give or take and Elite do report the moment of inertia has increased by 15% What does that mean? Well, hopefully a better ride feel on the pedals the Direto X and XR come sans a fan internally So they've redesigned that to keep it cool without having a fan inside today The Direto XR also comes pre-installed with a cassette so an 11-speed Shimano or equivalent and comes pre-assembled So setup time should be a breeze in a nutshell

 That's what's new today, but let's dive into all of the details Okay, full specifications here of the Direto XR direct-drive interactive smart trainer So rear wheel comes off bike compatibility quick-release 130 135 with native thru-axle 12 by 142 Adapters and everything included in the box cassette as mentioned comes pre-installed which is a Shimano SRAM compatible 11 speed cassette The free hub is a Shimano hyperglide But aftermarket options are available for XD XDR micro spline and Campagnolo Supported connections everything you can think of so ANT plus gives you speed power and cadence and plus FEC Bluetooth and Bluetooth smart FDMS the power accuracy as already mentioned plus or minus 1.5% with the optical torque sensor power meter Calibration spin down via my e-training app. However, I have put this trainer to the test this week I have not performed a spin down. That's not the Direto XR That is and that changes from 150 to 450 within a second or two That was using Bluetooth on the Zwift erg mode and things look pretty good So just a quick analysis of that rolling in here from 150 up to 350 again Erg mode always rewards smoothness So if you can be as smooth as possible That's where things work the best up here into 350 down to 150 into 450 it overshoots just a little bit But typically that's what erg always does Stabilizes after a few seconds and away we go and you can see here again from 150 up to 450 Stabilizes and the power numbers and everything look pretty good there for that trainer And finally on to the newest part of the Llama lab test Which is the flywheel speed test where I set the trainer to 225 watts erg I pedal at about 90 to 95 rpm and I change the gearing so the flywheel speed Now you can see there early on the low flywheel speed

2 kilos in the two previous generations to 4.5 kilos with the generation 3 Direto XR And the move up in weight is a 7% increase give or take and Elite do report the moment of inertia has increased by 15% What does that mean?

Everything is fine holds a set point of 225 watts erg No problems at all power numbers are good I change into the big ring a few down in the back a few hardest to the flywheel speed just at around 30 kilometers An hour and everything is good there not as stable if I was to really nitpick But still absolutely fine for training accuracy is good and then on the front big ring 11 gear on the back Spin things up and a lot of trainers never pass this part of the test and it's not a real big one You should not be training erg mode in the 5311 trainers just do not have that kind of working zone So the flywheel speed there was around 45 kilometers an hour It was unable to hold 225 watts erg which is a relatively low power for that kind of flywheel speed However, the power numbers were still pretty good So not a fail there on this one at the end there because the power numbers were good It's just simply identifying the working zone for the flywheel speed You'll likely always come across tips for erg mode Which say keep it in the small ring in the front and mid-range cassette at the back What that does is it keeps most trainers within the correct working speed zone for the flywheel to be able to apply the correct Resistance for the erg set point gets a little technical the takeaway is erg mode small ring. You'll be good So in summary there after many rides on this many llama lab tests and a lot of my own personal training sessions And then diving into the numbers

Elite Direto XR Smart Trainer: Details // Ride Review // Lama Lab Test

 Ride Feel The Diretto XR is a very well-behaved trainer that responds very well to gradient changes. It's pleasantly quiet and well-balanced. It also feels very solid and well-planted, which is very important when it comes to durability. Compatibility Diretto XR is compatible with both MTB and road bicycles, and its new structure makes it perfect for house derailleurs with long cages with 12-speed sprocket sets

 It also feels very solid and well-planted, which is very important when it comes to durability. Compatibility Diretto XR is compatible with both MTB and road bicycles, and its new structure makes it perfect for house derailleurs with long cages with 12-speed sprocket sets. This makes it compatible with 9, 10, 11-speed Shimano and SRAM cassettes. Final Verdict Should you get the Elite Diretto XR trainer? This home trainer is quiet and reliable, with an accurate power measure and a good ride feel

Elite Direto XR Trainer (Updated) Review

 The unit's really weighty, it seems firmly on the ground and even when hoofing out the saddle, it remains solid. Here is the rub. In Bluetooth mode on the Alpe d'Huez, on the corners, the slope came off far too much, so your resistance just totally fell away and it would leave you spinning out. Yeah, you could argue you need to change gear, but honestly, you need to change gear a hell of a lot to get resistance back on

 Seems easier to get the power on and hold it there. The real flywheel is probably a great help in this respect. The unit's really weighty, it seems firmly on the ground and even when hoofing out the saddle, it remains solid. Here is the rub

 But price-wise, this is a top-end trainer and it retails at some places in the UK, according to Google Shopping, at 765 pounds UK, which is terrific, considering that some of its competitors are 1,000 pounds. So a great turbo trainer, really good. Big thumbs up from us. Thanks for watching

Consumer Reports

The Schwinn IC4 offers a quality connected spin bike experience without the high-end price tag of the competition. A top-ranked model in our budget exercise bike review, the IC4 is more of a value proposition when compared to the screen-equipped competition. This bike does not come with a fancy touchscreen, so you will need your own tablet or phone to use JRNY or third-party apps like Peloton and Zwift &#40;subscriptions required&#41;, but otherwise, this bike performs roughly on par with the more expensive models. The IC4 has a sturdy feel with 100 levels of quiet magnetic resistance. It uses Bluetooth to connect to your device to use the JRNY app, and it has a device holder to keep your screen in view while you ride. The JRNY app offers a variety of workouts, with studio classes, virtual coach, and Explore the World scenic rides, as well as the ability to stream entertainment from your favorite subscription services &#40;like Netflix, Hulu, etc.&#41;. In addition to the cycling workouts, JRNY has a full range of off-the-bike classes to work on your total body fitness. The ability to use third-party apps like Peloton and Zwift expands this bike's versatility even further, and the Peloton app is much less expensive when used on a non-Peloton product. Of course, the IC4 can also be used without an app, and the small console provides a variety of metrics pertaining to your current workout. It also comes with features like 3-pound hand weights, dual-function pedals, a Bluetooth heart rate armband, bottle holders, and more to enhance the user experience.
While the IC4 does work with apps like Zwift, we found that it isn't quite perfect and the power output reading is a bit high. While this isn't necessarily a problem for casual riders, it could cause some issues if you're trying to compete with other riders on the app &#40;we are told the bike can be recalibrated for better accuracy, but it still won't be perfect&#41;. We also found that the speed and distance readings on the bike's console were higher than they should have been, but this is only a problem if you base your workouts on those metrics. Beyond these inaccuracies, we feel the IC4 is a reasonably priced connected bike that can get you into the studio and virtual cycling scene without breaking the bank.

The Schwinn IC4 is a fantastic exercise bike that can compete with the biggest names in home fitness. It looks and feels a lot like a spin bike you'd find in a commercial gym or spin studio, with an exercise quality to match. This sturdy bike has a 40 lb weighted flywheel and 100 micro-adjustable levels of smooth, quiet magnetic resistance. The 100 levels of resistance offer a huge range of difficulty levels suitable for all fitness levels and rider goals. This smart bike has its own display for manual workouts, and it can also connect to your device through Bluetooth to work with apps like Peloton, Zwift, and Explore the World for at-home studio and virtual workouts. There is a monthly fee involved to use any of these apps, which will likely be worth it for users who want the in-home studio or virtual training experience. We found the IC4 quite comfortable, with ample fit adjustments and a performance-oriented race style seat. It also has user-friendly features like bottle cages, hand weights, a USB charging port, a Bluetooth heart rate armband, and dual-function SPD/cage pedals.
The IC4 is among the most expensive exercise bikes we've ever tested, but it costs less than half the price of its primary big-name competition. However, if you seek the connected workout experience, you'll also need to consider the cost of a monthly or annual subscription to Peloton, Zwift, or Explore the World. It is also worth noting that the speed and distance readings on display are not accurate, and because it is a spin bike, it doesn't provide an accurate power output reading when using Zwift. It works; it's just far from perfect. It comes with a device holder, but you will also need your own tablet or smartphone to serve as the display when using the apps. All that said, we feel the IC4 is an impressive bike and an excellent choice for the rider who seeks the studio cycling experience.

I didn't want to be stuck in a specific training program or monthly payment in order to use my bike or treadmill. I went with a Sole F63 as under $1.5k I've seen Sole as the main recommendation. Horizon was a second choice for me

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to purchase a treadmill for my house, one that preferably lets you watch Netflix, Hulu, etc without a subscription (JRNY, etc). Does anyone know a good treadmill I can use that is of similar quality to the ones you find at the gym?

<div class="md"><p>Hi everyone,</p>

<p>I was first looking at Nordic track but heard they were terrible, so started looking at Bowflex T22, but didnt want to pay a monthly subscription just to watch Netflix and Hulu. Does anyone have any other recommendations?</p>
</div>

Looking for treadmill 3k budget

 I’m very pleased with the feel I get when I pedal. It kinda reminds me of BodyBike but that brand is in another level (and is 4x the price, too). Pedals are SPD which is great.  To motivate me I’m trying out the Peloton app on my living room TV where my bike is

Assembly First of all this bike is very heavy! As the box says, it needs at least two people to move it. I felt bad for the UPS person who delivered it, I wasn’t sure if I should stand and wait by the porch to help. This comes in a box smaller than the indoor bikes sold at Sam’s Club and Costco. Upon opening the box, the styrofoam was falling apart so keep your vacuum cleaner or broom nearby

Great Bike!

 They might not seem like a lot, but if you're thinking about riding for an hour, your legs are beat you're out of breath and holding these out in front of you like this and doing different types of workouts, it really beats you up man so good to Go i love the positioning. These little holsters for the weights are in the very perfect spot and nice and easily accessible and they're good to go. I also, of course, like the connectivity of the bike. Um pretty much connects to like 99 of apps out there zwift i've been using a lot

 Do i still recommend it at around 900? I think it's still a great buy, so probably one of the best buys under a grand. You know just thinking about all of the features, all the adjustability, all the connectivity that you get with the ic4. I think it's still one of the best buys at under a grand. Now i have read that some people have had very, very bad experiences with it and i would just suggest calling customer service there might be quite a bit of a weight only because of the whole kova 19 situation

 I'Ve sold it - and i picked up these two guys right here. So i have to my left: is the schwinn ac power and then to my right? Is the schwinn sc power? So i'm going to be doing a full review of each one of these bikes and i'm also going to be pairing them head to head with the schwinn ic4, and i did want to mention that each one of these bikes is actually about three thousand dollars. So it's quite a big jump away from the schwinn ic4. But again i did want to mention that these two are commercial grade bikes, so you might have a spin studio near you

Schwinn IC4 Bowflex C6 Spin Bike Long Term Review Good, Bad & the Ugly! Do I Still Recommend It? IC8

 3 stars may seem harsh, but I feel comfort is very key for the amount of time I need to spend riding on this bike to make a real impact and with this seat it will be a challenge every time.

 I chose to use the first month month to build up my endurance for riding because it has been a while and I plan to start using an app tomorrow. I'm trying Peleton app first. The bike is very easy to assemble. I really like everything about it except the seat

I have been using this for about a month now. For the most part this bike is great. I chose to use the first month month to build up my endurance for riding because it has been a while and I plan to start using an app tomorrow. I'm trying Peleton app first

Almost perfect

 It was the one kids all wanted under the tree on Christmas morning. I had a Murray for a couple of years and begged my parents for a Schwinn. I finally got it and became one of the cool kids. This bike meets my childhood standard and shoots past it

 I finally got it and became one of the cool kids. This bike meets my childhood standard and shoots past it.  Here's what you need to know. A gear-head could set this up in 30 minutes

I just finished my first ride after setup. I am beyond impressed. This bike vastly exceeded my expectations, which were set very low based on assembly of grills, and other in-a-box items. When I was growing up in the 1950's Schwinn was an aspirational bike

  I do have one quibble. If you are a short person, this may not be the bike for you. The adjustment on the handlebar doesn't come as far back as desirable for max riding comfort. This is a weakness of the design

 The adjustment on the handlebar doesn't come as far back as desirable for max riding comfort. This is a weakness of the design. My guess is if you are less than 5'-5" it won't be comfortable for you.  Other than that it gets and unqualified endorsement from me

Outstanding quality and performance

 The speed at which the scenery scrolls by depends on your power level and the grade. Pedal resistance remains the same, but uphill can be really slow, while downhill you go like a bat out of hell. The competiotive nature of the virtiual rides keeps me on it regularly. Since I purchased this bike in Feb, I've lost more than ten pounds

I got this as an upgrade to an older bike. The action is very smooth and it fits me pretty well (5'11" & 180 lb). The magneitc resistance varies from light to impossible. The Jrny app that comes with the bike has spin classes and some road rides, but none of that appealed to me

 The competiotive nature of the virtiual rides keeps me on it regularly. Since I purchased this bike in Feb, I've lost more than ten pounds.

A great indoor bike

 The drive train feel, which simply put is: how does the drivetrain feel overall, some bikes simply feel incredible to hop on and start turning the pedals over and they transmit feelings of excitement through your mind and body, as you crank the pedals faster and inspire you to Push yourself to new levels, while some bikes simply don't deliver those exhilarating vibes. I purchased this schwinn ic4 after the echelon connect bike, and i did compare this bike to the echelon, the peloton and several other bikes in other videos on my channel. But this isn't another comparison, video. This is a tail happy score review, so, let's dive straight into the first category, drivetrain feel simply put the drivetrain on the schwinn

 So i give it a 7 out of 10 on maximum resistance. So, let's move on to the next category in the tail hippie score metrics. For me, nothing really feels cheap or flimsy.
