What is the weight? How does it compare to Schwinn 7-speed loop?

I'm not familiar with the Schwinn. The main concern regards to how tall you are. If you are taller than 1,75 meters, I would not recommend.

Nautilus R514 Recumbant post: Your review is good - and not having seen these two sister products side-by-side, I would definitely say that the Schwinn display looks more updated (color, etc.) while the Nautilus looks bad. You did miss one thing: the R514 has a 'powerful fan.' Now, I like that feature, but I can get the 240 for $399 including tax and shipping. That means that for $150 I get a better warranty and a fan, but many of the reviewers on various sites have said that the fan is, in the words of Charles Barkley, TURRIBLE! So I agree with you, and am going to order the Schwinn. Using an external fan may not be chic, but it probably works better and it's free (top shelf of my hall closet :-)). Thanks for the fine review - well done.

indeed it is a 7 speed as the nomenclature says .the pic must have been a boo-boo from shimano.

I wish I knew as well. What I'm coming across is that most bikes have a maximum weight of around 250-275. It's actually very hard to find bikes that will work for a heavier rider without bending the wheels. They to look for a sturdy steel frame, possibly a mountain bike, & get the thick knobby tires. I'm still searching to find one that will work for me too. I wish Schwinn would answer these questions.

how much it weighs?? not real sure but for a big bike it's not bad. I have carried it up steps a number of times. Good bike.

I bought the bike a few months back so don't really remember the weight. I do know it is a very nice bike and did not appear to be too heavy and the battery did not seem very heavy either. The only problem I had with the bike is that it does not climb hills and we live in a very hilly area. Hope this helps you decide!!!!

I'm not sure of the weight. It handles very light. My husband who does all of the lifting and mounting of the bike says that it's light.

25 - 30 lbs. I don't remember for sure, and don't have access to the scales where I have it stored. It is the average weight of a bike in this price range. If you want a lighter bike, you will have to pay more money.

It is only 7-Speed which is on the rear wheel. You have the twist handle on the right handle bar that works the rear derailleur. I find that 7-speeds is enough to get me most places that I want to go and I'm 59 years old and love this bike!

I've seen 33lbs as the listed price. Kind of hard to find. :)All I know is given my physical capacity, I could pick up and manipulate the bike during the assembly process.I do know that the twist grip left/right gear change needs to be learned.All in all a decent bike, but if you are into high end fiber composite light weight frames, this is not the bike for you.If you want a solid street/path bike, this one works well.

I dont find it very heavy, its not really a mountain bike either. I wouldn't take this down a dirt trail or anything, but on paved roads, it light, comfortable, and rides good. Shipping was quick too

A few grams less than your typical deep v. If you're competitve I'd say don't buy bc the drag on the spokes is a bit much. I'm not sure of the exact weight.

My manual says 120kg. I looked up the Kilograms to Pounds Conversion Chart on the internet and it says 264.5 pounds. I've had my bike since February 2009 and not had any problems with it. I like being able to move it around from room to room by myself and I'm 75 years old and weigh 135 lbs. It is light weight, but sturdy.

I looked it up. The bike weighs 54 lbs., and the shipping weight is less than 135 lbs. It is a lightweight trike.

On my scale it is just over 30 lbs, which is light for a bike in this price range.

Although I purchased the Men's version, there is very little difference. I am very happy with this bike. It is extremely lite in weight and remains pretty rugged. It picks up speed with little effort and I love the ride. The only complaint I have is the tire tube needed replacement after only several Months.
