Schwinn's Smooth Cycling series of bikes provide riders with a quiet and smooth experience that allows them to fully focus on their workout. The SC5 model is designed with user-focused features, best-in-class biomechanics, and a high level of adjustability to suit riders of all shapes, sizes, and abilities. To ensure consistent quality, the SC5 features a patent-pending bottom bracket that exceeds industry standards, as well as rust-resistant materials and sturdy construction. The bike's components are designed to be low-maintenance while still delivering excellent performance. The patent-pending Morse Taper design keeps the pedals firmly attached to the bike and prevents breakage. With a Q factor of 162 mm and a smooth belt drive, the drivetrain provides a comfortable and enjoyable ride for users.
The bike's heavy perimeter-weighted flywheel and quiet Poly-V belt drive system provide a smooth experience for riders. The resistance system uses a direct pressure brake, and an optional 4iiii® crank arm power meter offers accurate power feedback to help riders train more effectively. The optional Echelon2 Console provides immediate feedback to help riders track their progress. The Morse Taper pedals and bottom bracket are designed for durability and reliability. The handlebars can be adjusted to multiple positions to accommodate different types of workouts, and the seat and handlebars can be adjusted easily for optimal fit. The frame is made of powder-coated and e-coated steel that is corrosion-resistant. The bike features dual oversized water bottle holders integrated into the handlebar design, as well as non-rusting urethane/over-molded leveling feet for easy adjustment. Double Link pedals come standard, and optional Schwinn Triple link™ pedals can accommodate Look Delta and SPD style cleats for a wider range of shoe options. The bike is compatible with the Star Trac Group Cycling Computer and has a maximum user weight of 350 lb (159 kg) and a user height range of 4'11" to 6'8" (150 cm to 203 cm).
