Being the higher-end bike, the Schwinn MY17 170 is constructed for more heavy-duty use and as such has some premium features over the MY16 130, including an upgraded crank system (3-piece compared to 1-piece) and over-sized pedals compared to standard pedals.

Both of the Schwinn upright bikes feature angle adjustable handlebars, but the Schwinn MY17 170 also features forearm rests for added comfort.

The seat on both bikes is contoured and padded for comfort with an easy seat-exchange system.  Both seats are adjustable up/down for different user heights, but the Schwinn MY17 170 has the advantage of also being adjustable fore/aft for a more custom fit.

The Schwinn MY16 130 and Schwinn MY17 170 exercise bikes come with an updated console compared to the older 2013 models and has been designed to be more user friendly, while still retaining all the high-end features.  Both consoles feature Dual Track LCD displays but the Schwinn MY17 170 has the advantage of being blue-backlit for better viewing and has the addition of Bluetooth connectivity which the Schwinn 130 and older models do not have.

Both consoles display motivating workout stats as you exercise and offer performance tracking with Goal Tracker.  Both consoles also offer USB connection with a USB charging port which can also be used for data export to Schwinn Connect and My Fitness Pal for online tracking.  The Schwinn MY17 170 allows for more different user profiles than the Schwinn MY16 130 (4 compared to 2).

Both the Schwinn MY16 130 and Schwinn MY17 170 feature pulse grip heart-rate sensors in the handlebars to help you keep within your target heart-rate zone.  The Schwinn MY17 170 also offers telemetry-enabled heart-rate monitoring (wireless chest heart-rate strap available separately).

Additional features on both the Schwinn MY16 130 and Schwinn MY17 170 include acoustic chamber speakers with MP3 input, media shelf, 3-speed cooling fan, and water bottle holder.

The Schwinn MY16 130 and Schwinn MY17 170 exercise bikes are both well-constructed with 2 integrated levelers for added stability and support a maximum user weight capacity of up to 300 lbs.  Both bikes come with transportation wheels for easy relocation.
