As previously mentioned, the Schwinn 290 Recumbent Bike utilizes Terrain Control Technology which automatically adjusts resistance during elevation changes within select programs and with the Explore the World workouts (JRNY membership required).  Although the console only allows for one user profile for the on-board programs, you can have unlimited JRNY profiles.

 

The Schwinn 290 Recumbent Exercise Bike features a large foam-padded seat with ventilated backrest for a comfortable workout.  Suitable for different user heights, the seat’s slider seat rail system allows you to adjust the seat lower/closer to the pedals or higher/further away from the pedals with a simple-to-use easy-adjust lever.  The seat is easy to mount thanks to the bike’s step-through frame design.
