My wife and I purchased this bike in October 2020 and heavily researching multiple other bikes and also seriously considering buying a Peloton. I'll save you the 25+ hours of research I put in to home stationary bikes - this thing is the absolute best bang for your buck available. I got ours at $900, so for $500 this is an absolutely amazing deal. We both have the Peloton digital membership which we pay $10 a month for (she gets the teacher discount, I get the firefighter discount). Otherwise, that subscription is $13 per month. The ability to bring your own tablet and switch workout providers is tremendous. We could cancel our Peltoon digital subscription next month and switch to any number of providers (Apple Fitness, Nautilus, etc.) with no hassle.
Just a heads up, Bowflex purchased Schwinn a couple years ago, so this bike is actually sold identically just with different stickers as either the Bowflex C9 or the Schwinn IC4. So you'll see the names interchanged, but the bike itself is identical.
A lot of the cheapie bikes are friction resistance, where as this one and the more expensive ones are magnetic resistance. Not to mention better build quality etc. Some of the cheap ones are really cheap plastic as you might expect. This one is going to be pretty sturdy and well built. It's pretty well reviewed as an alternative to Peloton if you don't need the screen or subscription. With this you can use an iPad or android tablet and use the cheaper Peloton app subscription ($13 vs $44) or iFit or YouTube or whatever you want
noob question.... what's so special about this bike over other non-subscription based bikes which typically sold for under $300?

I purchased on through Target via a SD promotion on 12/31, $799 with a $100 Target gift card so effectively $699. I like it very much, and for $499 it's an absolute steal. I use the Peloton app on my phone (could use a tablet instead) and the IC4 registers its cadence to the Peloton app via bluetooth. And my Apple watch registers my heartrate to the app via bluetooth as well. It's definitely not equivalent to my GF's Peloton bike, but it's very solid and at this price IMO it's a no-brainer. FWIW, I've found Apple Fitness to be terrible for cycling classes; Peloton is pretty great. YMMV.
I just ordered the ic3 yesterday. I have never owned any of these bikes, is it worth getting this one or will the ic3 work just fine?
Ic3 doesn't have the features of this one, specifically the Bluetooth connectivity. So it depends on if you want to spin using apps (peloton, Apple, zwift…) or just on your own.
I wanted to comment here instead of adding to my OP. I was kicking myself for not picking it up at Best Buy, so I was excited to stumble upon this this morning and it was an instant purchase for me.
Thank you Op! I too was upset I missed the Bestbuy sale.
Bought this for $720 (900-20% off at target) during early pandemic when there was a shortage of all gym related things and I'm very pleased with its quality even with that price. Solid build quality and rides well, I was using the Peloton app (covered by CSR) and did not see any shortcomings other than obvious peloton related app integrated items.
How easy is it to change the seats on these bikes? I bike more than an hour at a time and these things look like butt killers.
Yes you will want to change the seat. It's built for speed, not comfort. It's easy with a socket wrench. I bought a butt pad and it slides around too much, I should have just paid a little more for a whole new seat

Just a heads up, Bowflex purchased Schwinn a couple years ago, so this bike is actually sold identically just with different stickers as either the Bowflex C9 or the Schwinn IC4. So you'll see the names interchanged, but the bike itself is identical.
Thanks for the detailed info. Does the included monitor, or connected to the various app workouts, show what level of resistance you are set at? I read it doesn't auto adjust to inclines during workouts, which I don't see being a big deal to do manually, but curious if it shows resistance level and changes with the manual knob. Thanks!
