Schwinn 428P

Date Published: 3/30/04

The Schwinn 428P offers so much in its design and quality, and at this price, that makes it a Best Buy. First, remember you’re paying $1,399. Now consider this: synchronized upper and lower body workout with the option to go in reverse or forward, grip and telemetric heart rate control monitoring, urethane in-line wheels for a smooth workout, and 16 resistance levels. Great features mean benefits, such as a versatile workout, performance tracking, and quiet and consistent performance. On the 428P, the pedal stride is a stretched out 18 inches, and the flywheel uses a high-inertia drive system for self-perpetuating power. Six workout programs give the user a wide range of options, and the LED dot matrix display makes a wide variety of information immediately available to the user. One of the finer points put on the 428P is the footplate of the pedal that follows the natural motion of the foot to support all joints and muscles used through the stride.
