leikefitness Folding Stationary Bike Recumbent Exercise Bike w/Arm Resistance Bands-Pulse Sensor-LCD Monitor and Easy to Assemble Indoor Cycling Bike 2280

Surprising quality at this price point. Honestly, at under $200, I had my doubts, but there were enough positive reviews to prompt me to take a chance.I'm 76, terribly out of shape and 300#. My cardiologist suggested (especially with my bad back) a recumbent exercise bike. I'm thinking "Sure! I have an extra grand laying around!". Then my sweet daughter-in-law found this one on Amazon. Well... Might be worth a try.Assembly was pretty straightforward. I confess I'm pretty handy, having turned tools since I was 6 (Erector Set), but with the clear instructions, I believe pretty much anyone could assemble it successfully. I have a 3-chest tool stack (and more) of my own tools, but chose to forgo them, to assess the usefulness of the tools provided with the bike. I'll just say that while they weren't by any means fancy, they were adequate and I used them exclusively for the assembly.I mounted the machine briefly in both upright and recumbent positions to make sure everything worked then called it a day.Today, I positioned it in front of the guest room tv, pulled up a YouTube video of a virtual bike ride through the English countryside. I then pedaled for 30 minutes in the recumbent position. I monitored heart rate on my Fitbit primarily, though if I leaned forward to grasp the handlebars, the pulse was displayed accurately. I left the display in scan mode (each data point displayed for 6 seconds). Every 10 minutes, I would do 10 reps with the resistance bands. Thanks to the pleasant video and the quiet and smooth operation of the bike, the 30 minutes passed quickly. I'm optimistic that I will be able to make routine use of this machine.All this, plus the fact that it compacts quickly and easily if you need the space for company, or what have you. Great bike for the price!

Actually love this bike. It’s perfect in the smaller guest room and it’s foldable. Easy to assemble, comfortable and adjustable seat. A space saver! It was a bargain! I’m glad I opted for this bike and not the space hogging recumbent I was considering before I saw this. Worth checking out!

For the price point, this is pretty good. Just got it today, and assembly took a bit, but was easy to do.I wish the handles were more adjustable, but again, this is an inexpensive bike. I like the back support. It's there, which is nice, and low enough that it doesn't make things awkward.I like how it has the arm resistance as well. I had my last foldable bike for 13 years, and a design flaw caused metal fatigue (after 13 years, so it lasted a long time). This one does not have the same design flaw. It takes up more room, but I like it better.The screen is much bigger than my old bike. There's space to set your phone or pad (which will obscure the screen).The one most challenging thing is the cross bar between the two main pieces is higher, which means raising a leg higher to mount the bike. That may be a challenge for some folks.Otherwise, it's a nice bike good for us folks who just want to get some exercise without throwing a grand down on a cycle.Update January 2023: One of the resistance bands is fraying. So that is a weak part. Now to figure out how to get it replaced.

My bicycle arrived yesterday and I was able to put it together by myself. I don't have a lot of skills in this kind of thing. Following the instructions one step at a time, I was able to pull it off. :) I'm so impressed with the quality of the bike. It is very solid and amazingly compact. I live in a small house, so was worried about being able to find a spot it would fit when I wasn't using it. Not only was folding it up a breeze, I was able to put it next to a small table beside my couch. Perfection!!! I hopped on and rode it for the first time this morning, it felt very sturdy. Again I'm impressed with the quality.

I LOVE THIS BIKE!!!!As others have said it is easy to assemble by using the instructions on the tools card.It works well, it's quiet and I like the "pully-system" to get my heart rate up.I was walking a mile every day and it took me 30 minutes. (I am that decrepit)... Now, I can "ride" for 30 minutes and get 12 miles and burn 125% more calories.As others have also said the seat is uncomfortable. I had an old office chair foam cushion (not jelled filled, just solid foam) and I traced the shape of the seat onto the foam and cut with some sharp shears. I recovered the cutout foam with the netting from the cushion and then I covered the foam on the seat with a "Oversized Extra Large Bike Saddle Cover" to hold the foam in place. I placed a folded towel behind the cushion in the gap behind the seat...It made a huge difference in my enjoyment. I highly recommend this exercise bike!

I am really liking this stationary bike so far. I did not want to spend a lot of money as I am pretty out of shape. This is well worth the money for a basic workout and was easy enough to assemble. It is very quiet and easy to move from room to room. I do love how comfortable the seat is but I wish it could move horizontally. The real only dislike I have is that I have to keep pushing the RESET button for it to clear.

This is a pretty good bike for the price. It was easy to assemble and seems study. The only thing I don’t like is the seat is a bit uncomfortable when you put it in the recumbent bike position. The front of the bike seat kind of sits up and applies pressure to you. Otherwise it is a good bike and I do like the flexibility of being able to modify the position.
