Can you pedal forwards and backwards? Also can the upper body go forwards and backwards?

Yes, it can pedal forward and backward with both the pedals or upper body. Both are on the same belt so the upper body also turns even if you only use the pedals.

You can't, really. It does move backwards unless there is something to keep it from doing so.

They are. You cannot move both forward. They have a toe brake axis which is completely independent though .

It pedals forward and backward. It also has pretty good rubber sleeves on the legs to keep it from sliding.

Yes, pedals are bidirectional. The odometer will only function in the traditional forward motion.

like a automatic transmission on a car push a pedal to go forward and another pedal to go backwards. no gear shift,the harder you push the pedal the faster you go let up on the pedal and you stop.

No sorry you can't peddle backward I've tried. As far as getting detailed instruction on how to use the console I have yet to find a page on Schwinn's website that does it. Hopefully they will respond to concerns and fix the issue. For the price I paid I still like the bike, it works for me.

Just play around with the console, you'll get the hang of it easy enough. you won't screw it up. as far as peddling backwards, I only know it will without resistance. I'll check tonight if I can peddle backwards with resistance levels.

you can push yourself backwards easily but would have to pull with legs to go frontward(that with back to bar)

You can flip the rear wheel so that it can be either a fixed-gear, meaning that the pedals move if the wheel moves and you can pedal backwards, or a single-speed, where you can coast. This is the difference between a freewheel/single-speed, and a fixed-gear bicycle. I hope this answers your question.

Yes, you can. The motor has its own drive sprocket. The bike will use pedal power, to start the motor. Or if the motor is in neutral you can pedal the bike like usual. Bike.

Not a spinning-style workout since you can't stand up. But the tension adjusts so if you pedal hard at high tension, you can get your heart rate up. You're just stuck sitting the entire time.

It will move forwards and backwards. I found the resistance difficult to change, so I generally just use this to loosen up.

It only has hand controls for both front and rear brakes: pedals free spin backwards. It does come with a kickstand. My big 5 year old loves it and rides it all over our acreage and it should last a few years. Great value!

Yes it has the pedal style so if you try to peddle backwards it brakes the rear tire.

Yes it goes both directions - forward and backwards. It just wears out after a little while and the arms cannot be replaced. You have to buy a new one!

yes, you can skip forward or backward. you can select any track also. i think this is a great unit for the money.
