Both the Schwinn A10 and Schwinn 130 Upright Exercise Bikes’ drive-train utilizes a perimeter-weighted flywheel with Eddy Current magnetic resistance which combine to provide super smooth and quiet operation throughout each bike’s individual range of programs and resistance levels.
The Schwinn 130 is the higher-end exercise bike over the Schwinn A10 and as such has a slightly better build construction with a higher user weight capacity (300 lbs compared to 275 lbs on the A10), a better console with a dual-track screen instead of single screen on the A10, and a much wider range of programs and resistance levels – 22 programs and 20 resistance levels on the Schwinn 130 compared to just 7 programs and 8 resistance levels on the A10.
Being the entry-level machine, the Schwinn A10 has a more streamlined console for ease of use – there are enough programs and resistance levels to keep beginners and people looking for moderate workouts happy without the hassle of complicated menus to figure out! Indeed, you could just use the Quick Start option on either of these exercise bikes to just get on and go at your own pace without any complications at all!
