A stronger drive train with carbon core technology belt drive make for easy maintenance while delivering an authentic riding experience indoors. It’s an innovative and stylish design that keeps us on the cutting edge of the indoor cycling industry – and it will keep you coming back time after time.
With this in mind, we gathered input from hundreds of users, cycling instructors and fitness buyers around the world to help us create a new line of products and education that would take cycling to the next level. The result: three new bikes with a revolutionary resistance system and rider fit; a new bike console that provides measurements and tracking never before available; and an updated instructor program that brings those new measurements to life, turning measurement into motivation.
We call our new line the Authentic Cycling™ Series because we believe this is the best experience available indoors. Ever. Try it and we think you’ll agree.
For nearly 20 years, Schwinn chain drive bikes have led the indoor cycling industry. Even as other companies began to use belt drives, we stayed true to our technology for one simple reason: belt drives felt nothing like riding an outdoor bike. Today, all of that is changing. There is a revolutionary new belt drive taking the outdoor bike community by storm, and we’ve adapted it and brought it indoors on the A.C. Performance Plus. This next generation system delivers guaranteed durability and virtually zero maintenance, without sacrificing the Schwinn authentic cycling feel that riders know and love.

CARBON BLUE™
Several years ago, a company named Gates introduced a concept never before seen on outdoor bikes – a belt drive that performed like a chain.
Their innovative system – called Carbon Drive™ – features a carbon fiber reinforced belt with teeth for maximum durability and true bike performance. Over time, this has transitioned from a novelty system to a mainstream solution used on hundreds of outdoor bike models today.
Over the past year, we have worked with Gates to adapt this revolutionary technology to our new Schwinn AC Performance Plus with Carbon Blue Belt Drive Indoor Cycle. The result is a new belt-based drive system that combines the maintenance-free durability and performance of a belt with the authentic-ride feel of a chain. We call it Carbon Blue™ – those who ride it call it “incredible.”
SCHWINN IS TAKING EVERY MEASURE TO DELIVER THE BEST CONSOLE IN THE INDUSTRY.
At Schwinn®, they are committed to designing bikes that deliver both an authentic experience to riders and lasting value to gym and studio owners. It’s a dedication that drove us to developing the most feature-rich console in the industry today. With “measurement” being an added tool continually gaining momentum in cycling rooms, our new MPower™ Echelon Console gives motivating rider feedback which changes the way members ride and how classes are coached, ultimately enhancing the member experience. The MPower Echelon Console is our smartest design yet – and an even smarter choice for your gym.
However, providing the measurement is only part of the story, and not even the most important part. The only way measurement can improve a class experience is if metrics are intuitive and meaningful to the average student. This is where Schwinn® Education comes in.
The MPower Echelon consoles were designed hand-in-hand with an enhanced version of the Schwinn Education program for instructors. When the consoles are added to a class setting, we will train your instructors on how to incorporate the measurements into their classes and maximize the tools that the consoles provide. The console doesn’t replace what is already going on; it enhances the experience. By bringing the MPower measurements to life, classes can be more engaging, entertaining, and motivating for everyone. That’s why we say Measurement = Motivation.

"Love it!!!!"
~ Karen D
"Bike came with slight box damage, No damage or scratches on bike. Bike works well for 5 minutes. Then, cable came loose and a clicking noise. M2 console didn't work. After a 3 phone calls and registering the bike. Schwinn's service came out and fixed it for free. Cable had to be put in securely. Flywheel bearings had to be adjusted. Bike works well! Gave it only 4 stars because it had to be service after first use. Now it works super after 10 uses. I expect it to keep working well."

"I bought the bike because reviews are generally favorable and rate this bike as the no. 1 bike in the industry. It is a bike of perfection in my opinion and I feel compelled to ride it daily and look forward to doing so. No other piece of equipment gives me that level of satisfaction. When someone complains of noise, misalignment, faulty equipment, or something breaking, odds are the installer made a mistake. I took the time to put the bike together properly, watched all the youtube videos, and followed instructions. The bike is awesome, well beyond expectation. Aluminum frame, massive crank bearing, beautiful design, quiet, strong, fun to use, extremely stable. There is a learning curve to assemble and tune it properly. You can put any bike together wrong. Follow instructions and do it right. Those who put it together properly give it 5 stars and likely rate it as the no. 1 bike. Those who install it improperly, give it something less."
