Heavy Duty, Comfy and Quiet Feb 25, 2006
By rhodeymark I'm a big guy @ 6'3" and 260# and that is why I did not get the LifeGear bike I was looking at (smaller 6' reviewer said I wouldn't be able to use it). Even with this one I had to modify the extension tube by adding a drill hole to accomodate my height. The good news is the boxed tubing is heavy duty and I still feel confident even after modifying it. I exceed the max capacity by 10 lbs but the bike is solid and doesn't seem to mind at all. EZ 30 min assembly if you use your own tools. It comes prebuilt save for 12 bolts and two screws (plus you have to thread the pedals on - no sweat). I have a Stamina air resistance upright bike that was given as a gift but I don't care for the bike style seat or the noise. It nonetheless has worked flawlessly for two years of occassional use. This one, however is comfy on my fat behind and whisper silent to operate. Perfect to get me going on a regular basis.

nice Feb 25, 2006
By Steve Madison Hi,
I like this product a lot. I think it is a great bike for the price. The chair is comfortable. I am not overweight, but I am able to ride for an hour without a problem. I could never do that on a regular upright bike due to male plumbing. Assembly was really easy. It took me about 25 min. The multi tool they included was fine and I didn't need other tools except for a hammer (see below).
I am 6 feet tall and I fit well on this bike. If you are taller, you might not get the fullest extension, but I think it would work well for people up to 6'1". If you are taller than that, you may have your knees bent to varying degrees depending on how long your legs are. The bike is very quiet and I watch TV while using it without any trouble. I am very athletic and I vary my workouts between levels 6 and 7. There are only 8 levels total, but I think it will take me a long time to get up to level 8. If I do, it will be fine, because this is supposed to be an aerobic exercise, not anerobic. I got the super saver shipping, but it was at my house in 3 days. I didn't realize it when shopping for the bike, but the low front profile makes it very easy to watch tv, and makes the bike less bulky overall. A nice unexpected perk.
I only have two small complaints. The front end of the bike can twist (wobble) if you use sloppy form. I can see how some people may want a firmer feel, but as long as you use decent form, you will be ok. If the company could fix this and make it able to accommodate taller people, I think it would have a first rate product. My second complaint is that I had a slight dent in the front cross piece which holds the front legs. I think this was from poor packing or someone dropped it durring delivery. However, I was able to bend the dent back easily with a hammer.
This is a very good bike for the money.

This is the one to get Mar 19, 2007
By Alan Kaye By studying reviews on Amazon and elsewhere, I narrowed my choice to this Stamina 15-4600a bike or the similarly priced Lifecycle. I had a hard time choosing, could have gone either way. I also considered recumbent bikes costing far more.
I've seen some misleading or exaggerated reviews before, but guess what this bike really is that good! You are probably considering paying hundreds more, because you are skeptical something this cheap could be very good. I think for 90% of people this is definitely good enough!
It's compact and low, which means we are comfortable putting it in our living room where a bigger bike would have been an eyesore in the way. It's also comfortable (wide seat/good handle grip) and sturdy (doesn't wobble in use). There is a low gap in the space between the seat and pedals, great for mobility impaired people so they don't have to high step to straddle it as they would most bikes. However mobility impared people will not have anything to pull themselves up with on this bike since everything is low. There is nothing to obstruct your view, which makes this great to place in front of a tv.
I think this is a fantastic buy, I encourage you to stop looking and just get this one.

Not bad...but not for a real workout. Apr 25, 2006
By ch33ks I like the bike, but the tension is not very strong. Even the highest setting doesn't take a lot of effort. It would be perfect for an elderly person who is trying to stay in shape and is looking for a low impact way of doing it. It is very comfortable. If you are looking for a hard workout this is not for you.

Perfect for the money! Nov 09, 2006
By Hiker This bike is fantastic for the money. It's well built and doesn't take long to put together. It's well packed in the box and should be fine during shipping as long as it's not incredibly mishandled. Like another reviewer - I drilled an extra hole in mine to get a little more extension. I'm 6'1 with long legs and it's okay as is, but the extra hole makes it perfect for me. The reviewer who said the resistance wasn't enough must have a broken one. 8 is way too much resistance for aerobic exercise. I find the resistance range to be perfect. It's also literally whisper quiet. I don't have to touch the volume on the tv. The computer is simple to use and will either scan through the various readings or you can select one reading and leave it there. I haven't had it long but so far I am extremely pleased with it. And the price is incredible for such a solid machine.
