The Schwinn Airdyne Evolution Comp -- Why The Change?

The Schwinn Airdyne Evolution Comp exercise bike was the logical next step or evolution from the traditional Schwinn Airdyne bike

. I've ridden the same old Airdyne for many years and it's a hard bike to improve upon. Let's face it, that's why it still sells well after almost twenty years of selling the almost unchanged stationary bike. It still has loyal fans even though it lacks many features of more modern bikes. There are a couple of areas where it can use some help though. That's the reason for the evolution.

Since the Airdyne is a fan resistance machine, you're going to get fan noise. The faster you go, the more noise the bike generates. The fan resistance is what produces the load that you work against to produce the Airdyne workout. No listening to soft music on these machines however, since you're listening to high volumes of wind noise and the noise is just inherent to the design and use of the machine. That's one main reason for the Evo...

Evolution Airdynes attack the noise problem in two ways. Firstly is the newer design uses a much smaller fan. You get the fan resistance, but with less fan noise. It's still noise but just not as much or as close. That's also a plus since the fan is stirring up a smaller area of air. It isn't quite so much like a cyclone. You cut the gale force winds somewhat but still get the resistance required for the workout plus the cooling breeze. The big fan on my Airdyne is almost too much of a good thing.

The smaller fan also makes the machine a bit less bulky. That way it's easier to store and takes a little less room when you use it, plus it's a bit easier to move as well.

Here's the other noise reducer and a large reason for the changes in this evolution of the bike...

The Evolution Comp uses a different drive mechanism as an attempt at an improvement. The older bikes have a fairly standard bike-type chain drive which comes with typical bike chain messes and wear and tear as well. Works great, but it's not quiet. There's almost as much mechanical noise as there is wind noise and it could be annoying depending on your perception of such racket.

The newer design substitutes a belt drive for chain drive. That's not only quieter, it's also smoother operation and less of a mess. The whole pedaling action is smoother because of the belt replacing the chain. It's also less messy and still should last for a very long time.

It's hard to improve upon the Schwinn Air dyne bike. The Schwinn Airdyne Evolution Comp exercise bike version is an attempt to build a quieter and less windy machine that still works just like the old classic. Luckily the old version is still available right along with the new, which gives you a choice. So many of each of these have been sold, it's a simple matter to review user feedback and get a clear picture of what to expect and how each performs without a lot of marketing hype.
