 Good value in this class Jul 01, 2009
By David J. Delaurant
There are several nice features to this cycle. For one thing, you can mount any standard saddle and pedals. Computer mounting is fairly easy as well, with the magnet already mounted on the flywheel and a screw attachment on the front fork. Some users may find the bottle cage useful, but I removed right away to make it easier to step through -- swinging your leg over the saddle will more than likely bash your ankle on the seat adjustment bar. Both the seat and handlebar posts are a bit loose in the highest positions, but you can cure this easily with shimming. Overall, construction feels pretty solid -- the welds look good and the unit is reassuringly heavy.
What would have made this a 5-star choice would be an optional standard handlebar stem fitting. This would let me set up the entire unit to better reproduce my road cycles. At my height of 74", I find the stock handlebars uncomfortably low after about 20 minutes. Another, much more minor gripe is that the front rollers (for moving the unit around) are a little undersized -- it's easier to pick the whole thing up and carry it than to tilt it forward high enough for the wheels to roll properly.
2/2012 -- 2.5 year follow-up: Still working well. The felt friction resistance pad is fairly worn, but otherwise the unit doesn't appear to need maintenance. It is on its second bicycle computer due to a clumsy attempt at cleaning the first -- I forget how many thousand kilometers were on it before the sensor broke. I've become used to the handlebars, though I'd still prefer the option of configuring them to my own tastes -- the frame geometry for my height allows pedaling in a hands-off posture for short periods.

 Quality item but not gym equivalent Aug 23, 2009
By ELD
"SPININ.NY"
This bike is solid, (arrived scuffed up a bit) but the handle bars are very short and not comfortable for standing hill climb or for warmup "jogging". I am 5'7" so I am not excessively tall. The 29# flywheel is not substantial enough and does not provide a smooth hill climb when standing. Not comparabe to the Schwinn's and Lemonds I have used for years in classes. Would be fine if you don't want to get out of the saddle!

Great Home Gym item Oct 25, 2009
By H
I've attended several spin classes and wanted something I could use during the cold months when working out outside wasn't a possibility.
This is a great bike to have at home. I've been using it for about an hour everyday for a week and the product seems very well constructed. Makes minimal noise and handles the spin routines very well.
Handle bars and seat adjust easily and so does the resistance.
Only con I have is that the resistance adjustment doesn't have an exact measurement. It only has notches. This makes it harder to track.
Not bulky and it was very easy to put together. Took me about 10 minutes once I finally got it out of the box!!
I would highly recommend this product.
Oh but get a cushioned seat. trust me.

 excellent bike Jun 19, 2009
By Kari Blevins
This is an excellent bike, especially for the price. Have done Spinning for years and wanted something which would allow me to work at home. While not as nice as the Schwinn and other bikes you'll see at the gym, this is a great bike for the home. Nice action, nice wheel.

Happy Buyer Oct 10, 2011
By NewMe!
I must admit that I previously purchased this same bike in another state at a store and I acdtually used it alot. Unfortunately I decided to sell it back because I was moving to another state and I did not know what kind of space I would be dealing with in my new apartment. Well long story short I joined a local gym (I am in the country now) and the treadmills were always broken and the bikes they had were not the best (horrible actually). This is when I began to miss my spin bike and decided to take a chance an order it from amazon since it would be delivered to me for free! I wanted to order a different brand but I decided to stick with what I new and it was this particular bike. Well I ordered it on a Sunday and I had it by Thursday and the box arrived up the stairs to my home in tact. It took exactly 25 minutes to put it together. the parts were all attached properly with no hassle of reading directions! Although this bike is the same as the one I had sold back for some reason it rides better, the seat feels better as well the seat height adjustment for my legs feel better. I am very pleased and would recommend this bike for beginner spinners. I get a great sweat workout on it and prefer it over a regular excercise bike. After I workout on this bike I then take a walk/job on a hiking trail. The Spin bike helps with my knees also.
