I love this bike. Just make sure you tighten the screws good and get a comfy seat.

how does this compare to the ic4?
via google's ai (forgive me but no one else has answered). Before you read the bottom though, this bike is $157 and the IC4 is $800 lol.

The Echelon Connect Sport (including models like the EX-15/Sport) is a solid budget option, but it depends heavily on a phone/tablet and the Echelon app ecosystem.
The Schwinn IC4 is the more versatile and robust mid-range bike. It has a built-in LCD console, dual-sided pedals, better adjustability, and broad Bluetooth compatibility with apps such as Peloton and Zwift.
Key differences
Display and console
• Echelon Connect Sport: No built-in display or metrics console. You'll need a phone or tablet to view workout data.
• Schwinn IC4: Built-in backlit LCD tracks RPM, time, calories, resistance, and other basic metrics. It also includes a Bluetooth heart-rate armband.
App compatibility
• Echelon Connect Sport: Designed primarily around the Echelon Fit ecosystem, although third-party workarounds exist.
• Schwinn IC4: Connects directly to popular third-party apps such as Peloton, Zwift, and Apple Fitness+.
Adjustability
• Echelon Connect Sport: The seat adjusts vertically and horizontally, but the handlebars only adjust vertically.
• Schwinn IC4: Both the seat and handlebars offer vertical and horizontal adjustment, making it easier to get a comfortable fit.
Included extras
• Echelon Connect Sport: Minimalist package with toe-cage pedals. SPD-compatible pedals can be added separately.
• Schwinn IC4: Includes dual-sided SPD/toe-cage pedals, a media rack, Bluetooth heart-rate monitor, and two 3-lb dumbbells.
Bottom line: The Echelon makes sense if the price is significantly lower and you don't mind using a separate device. If the prices are close, the Schwinn IC4 is generally the better-equipped and more flexible buy.

you might look at the Echelon Connect Sport-S Indoor Cycling Exercise Bike w/ 10" Screen & 32 Resistance Levels $244 + Free Shipping
https://slickdeals.net/f/19971594

via chatgpt...

At $244, the Echelon Connect Sport-S is the better deal for most buyers.
It includes a 10" touchscreen, 32-level magnetic resistance, adjustable seating, and a compact footprint. You would normally need to spend considerably more to get a comparable connected bike with an integrated display.
The Schwinn IC4 is still the better bike overall: it has four-way adjustable handlebars, dual-sided SPD/toe-cage pedals, broader third-party app support, a standalone LCD console, included dumbbells and heart-rate monitor, a 330-lb capacity, and a much better warranty.
However, those advantages are difficult to justify if the IC4 costs several hundred dollars more.
Verdict: Buy the Sport-S at $244 if you're comfortable with the Echelon ecosystem and basic toe-cage pedals. Choose the IC4 only if app flexibility, SPD pedals, better ergonomics, or long-term warranty coverage are worth the substantial price difference to you.
One caveat: the Sport-S touchscreen is primarily intended for Echelon content—it is not a normal unrestricted tablet—and full access to Echelon classes requires a paid membership after the included trial.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I just got this bike from Walmart (right before it went on sale) and am very impressed. It doesn't have a screen, but you can connect to it with your phone or tablet via Bluetooth to see all of the output statistics.

One caution: if you buy it, I recommend that you do NOT connect to it with the Echelon app, which apparently updates the firmware to lock you out of using any 3rd-party apps with the bike. Instead, you can use the QZ app from the App Store for $7 to send the bike's output to any other fitness/tracking apps (Apple Health, Peloton, etc.) without requiring the special Echelon subscription.

Are these leaps and bound over the folding exercise bikes for someone just wanting brisk cardio every morning?

I have the generation before this and its been a good bike but it does rely on the app for literally everything. Meaning if you want to know your cadence, resistance or anything at all you have to have the bike connected to power and a tablet or phone running the app. The app is free to use in freestyle mode but they bury it behind a couple screens trying to get you to use their peloton ripoff subscription. I ended up replacing both the pedals and seat because both were trash but everything else has been fine. Also need to note that to run the app you need an iPhone, iPad, Samsung Galaxy Tab or phone. I had a friend also get one on discount like I did and they use a fire tablet and couldn't get it to run the app, they even tried a cheap chrome tablet and it wouldn't work. They had to use their Samsung phone. I use an old ipad that I dedicated to it. This may have changed but a year ago that was the case.

Not even in the same solar system. The IC4 is way better. I wanted one but couldn't justify the 10x more vs the discount I got Echelon for.

I had the original sport a few years ago and it was a really nice bike. Now I have the EX7 when they were being cleared out a while back. Sport bike would be nice with a tablet to run peloton and a phone to run qz app

I have the ic4 and use mywoosh. It runs on my android that is connected to my bike and I can ride with others, do training of if i was really into it team up with others. I still need to manually adjust resistance. Mywoosh is free but seems to take a decent phone/tablet.
