Marcy NS-654 versus NS-652 Foldable Upright Exercise Bike, Comparison Review

The Marcy NS-654 and NS-652 Foldable Upright Exercise Bikes are well-built entry-level exercise bikes for home use and offer great value for money.


The Marcy NS-654 Black and the Marcy NS-652 White Exercise Bikes look similar in design and have mostly the same features with a few exceptions including slight difference in overall size of the bikes and slight difference in design/size of each bike’s Monitor.

Both the Marcy NS-654 and NS-652 Upright Exercise Bikes utilize a smooth and quiet magnetic resistance system with 8 preset levels of resistance to choose from, allowing you to start off at your own pace and increase the intensity of your workout when you’re ready.  The resistance is easy to adjust via a simple-to-use turn-dial resistance knob.

Both Marcy exercise bikes come with a battery operated LCD Monitor that tracks and displays your workout progress as you cycle.  As previously mentioned, the Monitor supplied with each of these two bikes is designed differently (see pictures), with the NS-654 (black version) having a slightly larger display than the NS-652 (white version).  Both Monitors display the same workout metrics: Time, Speed, Distance, Calories burned, ODO, and Scan.

The seat on both the Marcy NS-654 and NS-652 Exercise Bikes is adjustable to accommodate different user heights, but as there is a slight difference in the overall size of the bikes, it follows that there is a slight difference in the inseam height range suitability between them – the NS-654 Black bike allows for an inseam range of 26” – 30”, while the NS-652 White bike allows for a higher inseam range of 28” – 33” so the white version may be more suited to taller people.

 

Both the Marcy NS-654 and NS-652 Foldable Upright Exercise Bikes allow for a user weight capacity of up to 250 lbs.

 

Both Marcy exercise bikes feature a high-density foam padded seat but the NS-654 Black bike has a slight larger seat for added comfort, measuring around 12” x 9” compared to the NS-652 White bike’s seat that measures around 10” x 10”.

 

Additional features on both the Marcy NS-654 and NS-652 Exercise Bikes include fixed handlebars and counter-weighted pedals with adjustable foot straps.

 

Both Marcy bikes have a fairly small footprint so are ideal for people with limited space in their home.  As previously mentioned, the dimensions vary slightly between the two Marcy Bikes with the NS-652 White version having a slightly smaller footprint at around 32.5” long x 16” wide x 44” high compared to the NS-654 Black version’s footprint of around 34” long x 19” wide x 44” high.

Both Marcy exercise bikes are sturdily constructed with a heavy-duty alloy steel frame which folds for easy storage, with the NS-652 White bike folding to a slightly smaller footprint of 14” long x 18” wide x 51” high compared to the NS-654 Black bike’s 18.5” long x 19” wide x 51.5” high folded dimensions.


Both the Marcy NS-654 and NS-652 Foldable Upright Exercise Bikes weigh around 37 lbs and feature front-mounted transport wheels for easy of portability.

 

For peace of mind, the Marcy NS-654 and NS-652 Exercise Bikes both come with a Manufacturer’s 2 Year Limited Warranty.

Schwinn A10 versus Schwinn 130 Upright Exercise Bike, Comparison Review

The Schwinn A10 and Schwinn 130 Upright Exercise Bikes are ideal for keeping fit in the comfort of your own home in a low-impact way, i.e without the jarring impact on your joints that accompany many traditional types of exercise!

With their high-quality build construction, ergonomic design and great range of user-friendly features, the entry-level Schwinn A10 and mid-range Schwinn 130 Exercise Bikes stand out from the crowd in their respective price categories and offer great value for money.

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!

Schwinn 130 console
with dual-track screens



As previously mentioned, the Schwinn 130’s console has a dual-track screen (2 displays) compared to the A10’s single screen, and incorporates a few extra features that the A10 does not have, including a 3-speed cooling fan, 2 user profiles, and a USB port to charge your own mobile device or to transfer data to online fitness tracking apps.

Both the Schwinn A10 and Schwinn 130’s consoles track and display all the key workout data you need to keep you motivated including: time, speed, distance, RPM, calories burned and pulse heart-rate.  Both exercise bikes feature contact pulse-grip sensors in their handlebars for heart-rate monitoring.

The Schwinn A10 and Schwinn 130’s consoles both feature an integrated sound system with audio speakers and MP3 input so you can listen to your favorite music as you exercise.  Both consoles also feature an integrated media shelf to place your mobile phone/tablet for entertainment as you workout.  A water bottle holder is also included with both bikes so you can keep hydrated as you cycle.

Ergonomically designed, both the Schwinn A10 and Schwinn 130 Upright Exercise Bikes feature angle-adjustable handlebars and a padded saddle that’s height adjustable for different users.  Both bikes feature a 1-piece crank system and standard-sized pedals with safety straps.

Sturdily constructed, both the Schwinn A10 and 130 feature 2 integrated levelers for added stability on uneven floors and both bikes also feature integrated transport wheels for easy relocation.

The Schwinn A10 has a more compact footprint than the Schwinn 130 (see full specifications listed in the comparison table below) so will take up less space and can be placed anywhere in your home as its console is battery operated (alternatively you can buy an AC adaptor separately).  The Schwinn 130 has a larger footprint and does need to be plugged into a standard power socket (AC adaptor included).

As you would expect, the higher-end Schwinn 130 Exercise Bike comes with a better manufacturer’s warranty over the Schwinn A10 – see full details listed in the comparison table below.
