The C3 upright bike provides all of the stability and durability of the C2, while offering several patented and unique features. The first of these amazing features is the Intelli-Key system that utilizes the use of blue backlit LED buttons to step the user through the program set up process.

The C3 upright starts with 3 piece cranks, oversized flywheel with Eddy Current drive system that provides the smoothest and quietest ride possible. The drive system includes electronic resistance with (16) challenging levels. The handlebars provided are adjustable and provide the user with an ergonomic feel. The oversized, plush seat provides comfort throughout the duration of the workout. The Opti-View console provides a Dot Matrix display to view the workout profiles, while 3 LED windows provide constant workout feedback. An integrated spring loaded magazine rack and storage tray add to the convenience of the console. The C3 upright is operated by DC plug-in. The front transport wheels make the C3 easy to move about. To back up the premium components the C3 offers a 350 pound user weight and Lifetime Warranty on the frame and brake system and 3 years on the parts.

By Pat McAuley This bike is surprisingly stable ,smooth, and quiet. It is definitely a step above the equipment available at the larger retailers. The ride and programing are comparable to the bikes I use at the gym. My one concern is will it stand the test of time.

By B. Perry I have been researching upright bikes for several months and decided that the C3 was a solid performing bike. It may not have all the bells and whistles but it is solid and performs smoothly. I tried the new Schwinns, Nautilus, Livestrong, Sole and Diamondback models. This has a heavy flywheel and the pedals are solid unlike the issues with the Schwinn bikes.
I was planning on getting a Schwinn 150 or Nautilus 514 but decided that paying a bit more for the Lifespan C3 was well worth it in the long run.
This bike is being discontinued so one does not need to pay $799 although it is now listed on amazon for slightly over $700.
I found another website selling it for $675 and then I called Life Span direct and was able to get it for $599 including heart rate strap, shipping and no tax.
To be honest, I would not have purchased this item for $700 but for $599 there is no bike available of quality.
For a handy man challenged person, I was able to assemble the bike in 45 minutes. If I knew what I was doing it should have taken 20 minutes.
