Great exercise bike
I purchased this bike recently and I love it, I keep it in my bedroom and using it frequently I feel is helping my knees

Great fitness aid
Setting too old for a road bike so I bought this. Connecting up the tension cable was difficult and needed clamping grips and preferable another pair of hands. Pity you can't change the saddle for a proper cycling one but I'm getting used to it Hope it helps me to loose weight.

Ok for the money
Does the job of gently exercising osteoarthritis joints,basic not as good as my old Marcey spend a bit more on the best Marcey you can afford

Straight forward
Once it assembled it's ready anytime. Do not need to preset anything, just cycle when you want. I was tempted to buy more expensive version but happy I went for this one. All my family use it whenever. Hopefully it will last for long time, as we only have it for about a month.

easy
This requires assembly which takes about a half hour. Fairly lightweight so easy to move about with wheels on rear stabiliser. Although the display shows miles and kilometres it can only be set on kilometres. Easy to read display.

Good bike
I’ve had this for a month now,assembly wasn’t too difficult apart from the tension wire but give it a good pull and it will fit okay.It’s solid and well worth the money
