This video is a Echelon EX-15 bike from amazon prime compared side by side to the Schwinn IC4 indoor cycling bike. Technically the Echelon prime bike on amazon was renamed to the Echelon Ex-15, and the model I have here in this video is one of very few echelon amazon prime bikes that were ever sold since it was pulled from the marketplace after some drama over the bike name. Each of these bikes cost less than $1,000 and can be purchased on amazon through the links mentions above. The schwinn ic4 costs around $900 and the echelon ex-15 only costs about $500.
The big question is, why would you buy a bike that costs nearly twice as much if you can get a bike that is almost as good for $500? The schwinn ic4 does come with quite a few more bells and whistles than the echelon bike but is it really worth the extra $400 to get a slightly nicer bike? I don't have a definitive answer to this question, but I can show you all of the similarities and differences of these two bikes and show you some of the features and benefits each bike has to offer the indoor cycling community.
The Echelon connect bike is no longer called the amazon echelon prime bike, it has been renamed to the Echelon EX-15 and at the time of the writing the Echelon EX-15 is out of stock, however, the link at the top will bring you to the listing so you can see if it is available currently.
Both the echelon ex-15 connect bike and the schwinn ic4 are nice indoor cycling bikes, and each offer a tremendous bang for the buck compared to the far more expensive peloton bike. I think you'll be happy with either the echelon bike or the schwinn indoor cycling bike, however each does have a few benefits compared to the other. The echelon ex15 is obviously much cheaper, at about half the price of the schwinn ic4 you have to ask yourself if its worht it to drop an extra $400 for the schwinn indoor cycling bike or if you should take that same cash and buy the echelon bike and use the extra money to upgrade components and get some accessories for the echelon amazon bike. The schwinn ic4 does come with clip in pedals, however, they are no the greatest clip in pedals i've ever seen, that being said the pedals on the schwinn are much better than what comes on the echelon connect bike from amazon now named the echelon ex-15. the seat or the saddle depending on what you call it, is probably better on the schwinn ic4, but its not a huge difference. seat really comes down to personal preference, and if youre anything like me you'll probably end up swapping out the bike seat many times over the years until you find one you like best.
I honestly don't have an answer if the schwinn ic4 is better than the echelon connect ex-15 amazon bike after you take into consideration the price difference. The schwinn ic4 is the better looking bike in my opinion and it does have a few benefits over the echelon, including it is easy to get on and ride without attaching your phone to get your metrics.
