A well made piece of equipment May 27, 2009
By Steven Keppler
"Gear Grinder"
I was concerned before I bought this that the arm cycle would not offer resistance. One other reviewer had mentioned that. You do get adjustable resistance but only when using it alone and not pedaling the bike at the same time. I wish the arm cycle offered more resistance than it does but after several minutes of use you can feel it working and you can raise your heart rate quite easily. This unit would be great for someone with bad knees who has trouble using a treadmill. This is the only decent arm cycle I found and with my knee problems I use that feature much more than the bicycle. The recumbent seat is very comfortable and easy to adjust front and back. I am 6'3" and have no problems with the seat adjustment. There are the side handles you can hold onto while using the bike. There is no cup holder as some have mentioned. Easy assembly and the funky tools they give you do work but if you had a 13mm & 15mm socket and ratchet it speeds up assembly time considerably. Look for a deal that offers free shipping because without that, it is $70.00 to ship, ouch!

fit for physical therapy? Sep 08, 2009
By J. Vlaar As a physical therapist, I was in need of an upper body exerciser. The stamina elite in general does a good job, but in my eyes has a few shortcomings. There is no resistance on the upper body pedals when you're bicycling at the same time, and there is no resistance when you're pedalling backwards on the upper body either. The seat tightener also is a little cumbersome and required a call to the manufacturer after trying different configurations.
All in all, about what I expected considering the price, other UBE's sell for $2000.00 and up.

Great home recumbent bike May 14, 2008
By K. Watts This bike was easy to assemble, not much to put together and took me only 1 and a half hours. It works as well as the more expensive one at the employee gym where I work. My husband is using it,giving up the treadmill and loves it. It is good to tone your body and for a great cardio workout. I highly recommend this bike.It is not a boring piece of exercise equipment.

Helpful product Aug 19, 2008
By Shar My daughter uses just the foot pedals of this bike. Being handicapped, I use just the hand pedals of the bike. It works well for boith of us. It operates smoothly and quietly and gives a good workout used either way. I am satisfied with my purchase... it seems like a good, quality product.
