Exercise Bikes
Paul M –
For the price it is a quality bike. It seems solid and easy to use.
The resistance could be stronger but then again, I’m using it to get back into exercising.
It’s comfortable enough to use for longer periods. I’m up to 45min so far.
I pedal away watching TV. Better than being on the couch.
During assembly there is one step where it states you should have 2 people – they’re not kidding as I tried alone and struggled through that part.
Once assembled, it’s easy to move around.
The screen is very basic compared to those in the gym, but I rarely looked at them anyways.

Well this might be a bit premature as I’ve only just used the bike today. However, I wanted to write a review already because of an issue I had following the directions, in case it could be helpful to anybody else. But first things first:
– The bike is a very nice, compact size. Based on how long your legs are, it will take up more or less room than the dimensions given. I am particularly pleased at how narrow the main body of the bike is; I don’t feel like I’m trying to bike in a spread-eagle position.
– The computer panel does not appear to work. I can’t do anything to make it turn on, and there was no indication in the instructions that it needs batteries. I’ll keep fiddling with it, but it really is not an essential component to me.
– It was surprisingly easy to put the bike together. The instructions are straight-forward and easy to read. However, if you follow the directions for connecting the tension line, it appears to be absolutely impossible to assemble. I tried five or six or seven times to get that stupid thing in. Finally I cut the cable tie that was holding the electrical cord in place (making sure to attach it immediately to the above piece so I did not lose it, possibly forever, down the tube) and used the extra space where the cable tie had been to screw the nut down further. This gave me more room to screw the entire casing for the bottom half of the tension assembly down, and I was finally able to make the two parts reach! However, I had to do the reverse of what the directions showed — first I slid the top tension line into the bottom loop and then I pulled it up and forced it into the top groove. It appears to have worked, as the bike and the tension settings all function nicely. I should note, if I had not been assembling this right behind a large chair of mine, I am not sure I could have done it on my own. I was able to rest the frame piece of the bike on the chair while connecting the tension lines, something I surely could not have done if I had had to hold the rather unwieldy frame piece.
– The pedals have a positively overwhelming smell, so much so that for the first ten or so hours of having them out of the package, it smelled like I was in an auto shop. On that note, apparently half of this bike is made with materials that the State of California recognizes as causing cancer, but I guess that’s to be expected when something costs so little.
– The bike works like a charm, and is so unbelievably quiet. So quiet that I can even hear my arthritic knees cracking over the nominal whirring of the magnetic core. I didn’t even have to turn my TV up. This bike is significantly quieter than the lowest setting on a fan.
– There is a noticeable, albeit minor jerkiness to the bike when pedaling, but that is because of the particular system used for this bike. You won’t find anything smoother in this price range, and I’m not even complaining about it. I just want to note that you should not expect the same kind of fluid motion as you get on exercise bikes at the gym.
– Although the bike works exactly as I’d hoped it would, I do find it a bit flimsy. I’m a small woman, so it doesn’t concern me. However, I can’t imagine that any large or tall people would feel terribly confident in the holding power of this thing. I could be wrong, though.
– Finally, the seat and backrest are not very comfortable. They are not the hard plastic of some of the other (and even more expensive) bikes I browsed through on amazon, but I still prefer to supplement with a pillow. I am particularly saddened at the lack of lower back/lumbar support, as this is something I really need.
I would love to see this bike last a few years, but even if it dies in three months it’s still cheaper than a gym membership and it’s right in my living room. In the winter – with snowy roads – that is huge for me. Overall, I am definitely pleased with my purchase. I only rated it four stars because of the non-functioning computer, the smell of the pedals, and the (lack of) comfort of the seat. I will update my review if anything changes in the future.

Great exercise bike

I weight 330 pounds and desperately need to lose weight, but I also have bad knees and other issues which make walking painful and running impossible. I thought an exercise bike would allow me to get some exercise while being easier on my joints.
This bike fits my needs perfectly. It doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of the more expensive bikes, but it does what I need and does it very well.
The weight limit for the bike is listed as 300 pounds, but it handles my weight with no problem. There is no sagging, creaking or other signs of overloading when I am using it. It feels very solid and it is very smooth and quiet while in use. I am also 5′ 11″ with a 32″ inseam and the pedal reach is comfortable with the seat in the last position.
It was also easy to assemble but one word of advice, put the handle on BEFORE putting on the bottom seat. If you assemble them in the order given in the instructions you’ll be taking the seat off again.
Overall I’m very happy with the bike and would recommend it.

I am very impressed with this exercycle! It’s hard to imagine a better product for the price.
It’s very sturdy, and the design is simple but well thought out. My list of Pros and Cons:
PROS:
1. Very sturdy.
2. Excellent design.
3. Assemble is easy except for the tension control.
4. The screen is easy to see.
5. Good tech support.
CONS:
1. It’s not for tall users; I’m guessing anyone over 6 feet.
It would be nice if Marcy added some length.
2. Attaching the tension control is Hard.
3. The “wheels” are useless on carpet.
4. It’s best used on a hard surface; there’s a SMALL amount of side-to-side motion on carpet.
5. The tension (pedaling difficulty) is not used for the display, especially :
Speed, Distance, Odometer, Calories.
If you were pedaling up a steep hill or very fast (high tension) those statistics would increase.
The bike just measures RPM’s and translates that to the display stats wo regard for tension.
You’ll have to let virtue be it’s own reward here 🙂
6. I would be a bit more comfortable with the seat lower and tilted further back.
but this is a minor quibble. It may have a lot to do with my height.
Since I’m over 6 feet tall I fastened an old pair of orthotics to the pedals and I pedal in bare feet.
This gives me just enough extra length to comfortably use the bike.
The pros are huge and the cons are are all minor. This is a GREAT exercycle, especially for the price!
I HIGHLY recommend it.

Love, Love, Love this bike, but despise exercise. However, I was forced to research a bike for the purpose of recovering from a posterior hip surgery, 4 mo ago) My husband spent 40 minutes putting it together (with a few screws leftover 😳) while I untaped and disposed of packaging. The screws and bolts are vacuum sealed onto a cardboard with the part numbers on it, so if you rip it open, it’s easy to mess up the part numbers. I took a picture of it before hand, making it easier. Anyhow, this bike is my new best friend!! It is easy to get on and off and is super sturdy and although it sits on a shag carpet, it does not move. It has a soft, wide padded seat and padded back which has great support. The handle bars at the sides of the seat have a nice spongy grip but not too spongy. With each setting of the dial you can definitely feel the resistance between the settings. I am starting at number 3 and can feel the pull. There is a display unit, which I’m sure belongs in a doll house with clowns as it’s quality does not match the rest of the bike. The numbers are big, and jump around to whatever else it’s supposed to display, and the button is big and plastic. I am going to put a bag over it, so I can stop the eye-rolling when I look at it! BUT the bike is amazing. I am working out my legs (they have no muscle) and feel it will help me more than anything else I’ve tried. It is super quiet and is set up infront of the TV. I also use the handle bars (while standing in front of the bike) to do stretching, squats and vertical pushups. I am 5’4” tall and can reach the peddles easy. There is another setting to bring a shorter person closer to the peddles. The peddles are nice, sturdy and wide (I wear crocks when using). I seriously researched other bikes and so glad I bought this. My husband is 5’ 11” and weighs 208 lbs. Once he finished putting the bike together, he gave it a try. (While I was thoughtfully thinking about my recent surgery and left over screws) 😳 He was absolutely sweating at 5 min and shaking when he removed himself from it. I knew then, the bike was gonna be a keeper! Buy it, it’s lovely and it’s gonna work regardless of your body type. Ps. This is my humble opinion and was purchased for my surgical recovery (talk to your doctor if you’re recovering from THR) also, I’m thinking it’s never a good idea to have extra screws and bolts left over but not worth the argument 😂 keep the tools it comes with to retighten every now and then. Shipping was fast. Thank you 🌷🌷
