Schwinn recumbent bike 203 Ac adapter or batteries?

I have this bike I may pick up from a friend who got it as a gift ( but she is not into biking)
Its a Schwinn recumbent 203 bike
I tried it the other day to ''start the bike'' dos this bike need ac power or batteries to start the screen? I tried pedaling but to no avail? I could not see where an ac adapter would plug in? The display panel does not look like it comes apart for batteries? Please help thanks?

It uses an AC adapter. You can visit:

fitnessrepairparts.com

This is where I am getting the AC parts for my 201.
Good luck!

Just in case someone could use a direct link to the AC Adaptor, here is the part FitnessRepairParts is selling for the Schwinn 201, 203, 212, 222 and some others. Note this includes the old version of the Schwinn 201 (2004)

And here is the part they are selling for the new Schwinn 201 (Rev. 2009) and also Schwinn 202, 206, 213, 223 and some others. Make sure you are looking at the correct part for the correct model!

the Healthstream MB303 recumbent bike requires a power supply with an input voltage of 90-132VAC, 50-60Hz and an output voltage of 9VDC, 1.5A.

How old are the schwinn 227p recumberant exercise bikes?

Hello, Mark -

I found a review of the Schwinn 227p recumbent exercise bikes dated 16 Nov 1971:
https://wilmerstreeton.wordpress.com/1971/11/16/review-of-the-schwinn-227p-exercise-bike/

Are you really asking about a Schwinn 227p recumbent exercise bike you are considering purchasing second hand and want to know how old THAT bike is? If so . . . ask the seller if he / she can tell you how old the bike is.

Or, do you have such a bike and want to know how old it might be? If so, and if you can locate a serial number on the bike, this website may prove helpful:
https://bikehistory.org/serial-number.html

You can also contact Schwinn directly to find out if they can identify the age of the recumbent bike in question:

Best wishes.

What is the output voltage, amperage, watts and polarity for Schwinn 203 recumbent bike? I have a pile of transformers and don't know which one my mother-in-law used. Thanks for all replies.

If the recumbent digital computer gives you an option of power supply or batteries then you can deduce voltage of the power supply by counting the number of batteries needed times 1.5 (1.5 volts = voltage of AA or AAA battery).
You can deduce typical current by multiplying the number of batteries by: AA = .05 amps or AAA = .01 amps.
Your next issue will be to deduce the polarity. Look at the Schwinn to look for a symbol that will show you polarity. Typically the center of the plug is: + positive and the outer shell is - negative. There are instances where those two are reversed.
If this is all too confusing then Google the recumbent model number to find replacement power supplies ($35 to $45 US).

What's the best exercise bike there is?

It is very difficult because there are two main versions of exercise bikes, so I've picket two of each type. If you prefer an upright bike the Schwinn 140 Upright Bike is the best pick, if you're more into recumbent bikes the best option is Nautilus R514 Recumbent Bike, both of them won the 2011 best exercise bikes.
