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.

 Stamina 5325 Exercise Bike August 31, 2010
J. Traxler (Exline, IA United States)
This exercise bike is just what I needed after my back surgery. It is quiet running and very good for the space I need to keep it in. I've had no problems with it at all.
 You can do better for this price August 29, 2010

First - all these consumer bikes are made by the same company in China and branded. I've had 7 in the past 10 years from different companies. Reebok, Stamina, Sports Authority house brand, Target... it doesn't matter. They're all the same basic construction, come with the same little shrink wrapped tools, the front and back supports go on the same; I can put these together in my sleep. You can even interchange the parts. The only difference are the computers.
They will all die in 1-2 years if you use them every day.
I use mine 20 miles a day - it doesn't matter if it's a $150 model or a $700 model, they die in under two years. Pulse monitor? Rusts out or breaks in ~4 months. Straps on the pedals? Break in 3-9 months. Plastic drive belt? Minor damage in 6-9 months, fatal damage in 12-24 months that requires replacement, since you can't fix them. These things even come with a warning that if you actually try to use them seriously you could suffer 'severe injury or fatality.' They're cheap consumer crap and they expect you to stop using it and turn it into a clothes rack.
So you might as well get a cheap one with good features and expect to replace it. This one works well enough and is quite quiet, but is lacking several features you'd expect for a $200 model (and I should have checked for first):
* Worst of all, no pedal straps. If your foot ever slips, the pedal goes upside down and you need to come to a halt and resync. After one night of this I just took the pedals I saved off my old ones and used them instead.
* You can't see your speed and distance at the same time.
* The timeout before the computer resets everything if you don't pedal is quite short compared to other models. Need to rush to the kitchen or computer or phone? Better hurry, or at least remember how far you'd gone.
* No drink holder. A little thing, but you'll need something else for your water bottle.
* The base is on the narrow side (there seem to be two common sizes), so if you get serious it rocks from side to side a bit compared to the wider ones.
* If you're 6'(I am) or over, the seat adjusts fine, but the handlebars are then very low. The configuration pictured is for a midget or child.
So this will work for a year till it breaks, but I've had a $150 model from Sports Authority that was much better, and next time I'll remember again what to look for.
 Decent Bike August 20, 2010
brittoc
The bike was a little tricky to put together. I have enjoyed it other than the seat is lose. I am not strong enough to tighten the seat. It makes a squeaking noise. I'm not sure if that is from the seat or from a different piece of the bike. The resistance is great, it is a good workout! I haven't messed with the heart rate monitor much but it seems to work. The calories burned measurement seems to be off it consistantly goes up no matter how fast you are going. Overall it is a good bike for the price.
Good Bike, Great Customer Service August 18, 2010
Tom Johnson (los angeles, CA usa)
This is an outstanding exercise bike for the money you pay. Sure, you could get a fancier one if you were willing to pay $500-$2000, but for only $200 you really can't ask for a better product. This bike delivers everything the company advertises: easily adjustable resistance, heart rate monitor, etc. One step in the assembly process (connecting the internal tension wire) can be a little tricky, but anyone with a little mechanical intuition should be able to get it up and running within an hour. I have to compliment the customer service as well...2 months after buying, the computer that gives you speed, dist, etc broke. I was expecting an annoying process to get it replaced, but all I had to do was fill out a simple form online and it got replaced with "no questions asked". The replacement arrived within a week. I would strongly suggest purchasing this particular bike rather than another of similar price.
 Very good product for the money August 6, 2010
monsieur (new york)
This is a very good bike for the money. It has a great computer system that gives you work-out programs. Without these, I'd just be pedaling along at minimum speed! The monitor tells you when you're going too fast or too slow based on the program's target rate. It's compact and attractive. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because of some little details. I think the handle bars are a little far away for me and I wish they were adjustable. Also, the pedals don't have straps to keep your feet on and it doesn't have a basket or something to put your TV remote or magazine in. But these are frills I guess you have to pay more for!
