Two weeks after purchase, the left pedal snapped out of the crank-arm, stripping the screws and making it impossible to screw back in. I emailed the company, they were helpful, sent new parts, installed fine. Four months later, the exact same issue occurred, but now with the right crank-arm and pedal. Of course, because it's out of warranty, they want nearly 30 dollars to replace the worthless crank-arm and pedal. My wife and I ride bikes recreationally, and have used exercise bikes at several gyms in the past - this has never before been a problem. Avoid the cheap, shoddy materials - spend a few more bucks and get something well made.
Great working bike. As a first time buyer, I didn't pay attention to the weight of the wheel. This bike's wheel is only 30lbs, where most of the others are 40. This makes a difference when you stand up to pedal. Other than that, it's working great so far.
For the money, this is a nice indoor trainer. Paired with the "Global Rides" DVD series, I am set for the winter. The seat is a bit uncomfortable, even with padded shorts, and I am not a fan of toe clips, but I just purchased a WSD seat and clipless pedals, so I will be all set! The only downside is not having a tension index, but with experience, you get to know where to put the tension for different levels. It is easy to move, so I keep it in a closet, and wheel it out in front of my TV when I use it.
This bike is VERY easy to set up; i never opened the instruction booklet. All tools are included with the purchase. I had this baby set up and running in about 35 to 40 minutes. It is relatively quiet for a chain driven bike; it does not squeal when you increase the tension. The seat, however, took some adjusting to get it solid enough to hold my weight ( 155 lb male ). My only con is that the seat is too hard and after a good 45 min ride, my bum was sore. No problem, I can buy a new seat and easily interchange it. For the price, this bike is a serious bargain. It's study and reliable. If you are looking for a good spin bike for a bargain, this is the way to go.
I absolutely adore this product. I switched the seat out, though. Not that the original seat was terrible...I just didn't want any excuses not to ride. The bike is awesome. Plenty bang for your buck. It does make a little noise when you ride, but not enough to distract you. If the television is on you probably won't even notice it. I read while I'm on it and it does just fine. I am new to spinning so I've only been on a spinning bike in the gym once. I knew, from that one experience, that it would provide a great workout. So I decided to invest in one for my home, since I never get out and go to the gym. It was worth every penny. I already see results in my thighs, after a few short weeks. And I'm only on three times a week. I can't wait to see what happens when I ride daily. I would highly recommend this bike to anyone who wants a spinning bike but doesn't want to spend a lot of money.
I love this bike. well worth the money and an exceptional quality
I did switch out the saddle because it is not comfortable. I also switched out the pedals for my own in order to use my spin shoes. For the price, the bike is perfect.
I was nervous to by an exercise bike online, without being able to check it out (sit on it, pedal on it, try it out) first. And was very nervous about assembling the bike. But I am very happy with my purchase (so far -- I just got it last week and have ridden it a couple of times). The bike is quiet and the tension is easily adjustable for an easier or a harder ride. I can watch TV or place my ipad on the handle bars and watch or work while I ride. The heighth of the bike (handle bars and seat) can be adjusted easily by completely unscrewing the adjustment knobs and then moving the seat up/down, forward/back, and the handlebars up/down. It would be nice if then adjustment knobs had springs so you didn't have to unsrew them all the way to make the adjustments, but I am happy with the price I paid for this bike, so I don't mind it too much. In other words, I wouldn't pay more just for that feature alone. I am 5'4" and ride the bike easily and there is still room to lower the seat for someone short than me. My boyfriend who is 6'1" also uses the bike. The bike has small wheels in the front so we can easily tip the bike and then roll it into another room when we are not using it. Yes the seat is hard, but all spin bikes have hard seats. You just have to condition yourself to it. Meaning, after a few rides your rear end should get used to it and won't be sore anymore. Assembly: The bike was very easy to put together. The only problem I had was getting the seat to stay on. Once I realized that the top screwdriver provided in assembly kit also doubled as a wrench, I was able to use the tool to tighten the seat, and now it stays in place just fine. I was looking for a good quality basic bike for a decent price, and that is exactly what I got. Very happy with my purchase and hope that we get some good use out of this bike and it doesn't become a clothes rack anytime soon!
OMG.. I LOVE MY NEW BIKE! It was very easy (and quick) to assemble. (25 min tops) Yes! the seat is a little uncomfortable, but not a deal breaker. I am 54 and 150lb, so I was a little skeptical at first about the size, but I must say, It is the perfect size! Best online purchase in a long while!
This is a great bike to do spinning-like exercises on (easily holds you in 1st, 2nd 3rd positions) or to just bike on normally. It is solid/sturdy/well-made. It is very similar to professional spinning bikes I've used in gyms (I used to teach spinning). Other exercise bikes I've bought at similar prices don't work when you want to stand and ride or ride above the seat like you do in spinning and this one does. It's great! However - the original bike seat is hard as a rock, so I just replaced that and it's great!
