products entered. Organized by the Chicago Athenaeum Museum of
Architecture and Design and the European Centre for Architecture,
Art, Design and Urban Studies, the Good Design Award honors

The Schwinn Airdyne Pro Bike is an iconic machine in a class of
its own for low-impact, total-body workouts. The Schwinn Airdyne
Pro is a unique type of fan bike that utilizes user-controlled
resistance, so the harder a user pedals the more resistance they
generate. As a result, the more resistance they generate, the more
intense the workout becomes. Unlike traditional stationary bikes,
the Airdyne Pro doesn’t need electricity. Users power the bike with
their own effort. The bike’s iconic wind-resistance Airdyne
Technology™ blends seamlessly with custom interval training
programs to offer users of all levels uniquely challenging
workouts.
