About Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

Rating : - Great bike for the price
I purchased this bike about one month ago, and I am very pleased with it. I had my boyfriend assemble the bike for me, so I can't really comment on whether or not it was difficult to put together. I can see how the bike would be difficult to use for people who are shorter. I'm 5'9" and I had to put the seat down to one of the lowest notches in order to use it comfortably. The only thing that I didn't like about the bike was that the seat was uncomfortable for the first couple uses. Thankfully, it only took a couple hours of riding to break in the seat.

Overall, it is a very smooth and quiet ride. It's also very sturdy. That, along with the preset programs and various resistances, gives you a great workout. Of course, there are better bikes out there, but this bike does a great job and can't be beat for the price.
