It started off as such a great bike - AndMyDog, Nov 21, 2009

I bought this bike about two months ago, and at first, I couldn't have been more pleased. The assembly took a bit of thinking, but it wasn't that difficult, and only took about a half-hour or so. The seat was solid as a rock, but I'd read the other reviews on here and ordered a gel seat at the same time, so that was never much of a problem.

However.

I'm 5'8", and this bike is a little too short for me. The seat is at its highest point, and my knees bump my forearms with every pedal. Also, I started on setting 5 of 8 (which was initially the perfect resistance), but when I went to move it up to 6, I noticed a horrible grinding sound, like the magnets in the bike had shifted. I can actually feel them scraping over each other with every pedal, and the sound is unacceptable. And finally, this bike doesn't fold up. You see the picture of the bike? From front to back, it reduces about a foot, and that's it. Hardly a stow-away size.

I am deeply unsatisfied with this bike, and am currently searching for schematics so that I can repair it myself (as the company in question won't listen to either requests for maintenance or return).

Fell apart! - David K. Mccormack, Nov 19, 2009

I Purchased this stationary bike no more than 6 months ago and it has already completely failed on me! A couple of weeks ago the pedal motion started to get rough, jarring but I didn't think too much of it. After that small pieces of ground plastic started falling out of the bottom of the machine and just two nights ago the pedal motion got so rough that it began hurting me knees, rendering it completely unusable.

I didn't spend a fortune on this exerciser but I would have expected more than half a years use from it, if I could rate lower than one star I would!

Whisper Quiet- Great Bike- I've had it for over a year! - Laura E. Boggs, Nov 19, 2009

This is the perfect bike for an apartment or other place where you want a super quiet bike. It is light and foldable; I've folded it up several times when I've had parties. I have put a towel down on the seat if it becomes uncomfortable, I can see why people might buy a gel pad. It is great in the winter to be able to exercise indoors!

Foldable Bike - kcptaylors, Nov 09, 2009

This is a wonderful bike. It's smaller than most exercise bikes and yet has all anyone could want. The seat is very hard and needs a gel cushion. Most gel cushions are not the proper size so be sure to measure the seat to get a good fit.

expectaions were better than that - T. Fedotova, Nov 07, 2009

The pedals are very hard to roll even when the resistance control is on the level 1. I think the product is damaged.
