I ordered this bike because I couldn’t afford the Schwinn bikes. This looked good; so I decided to go for it. In addition since I wasn’t paying big bucks I went forward and ordered the Sunlite Cloud Nine Gel Bicycle Seat Cover, for Cruiser or Exercise Bikes to go with it. The combo of the two makes this a good bike. It took a while to get it together. The directions were good; everything was labeled but you need two people to do it. I put a mat down under the bike to cover the hardwoods. The bike is loud; so but the TV up to the 30’s or 40’s or use your Ipod. My bike is under the ceiling fan and so getting up to speed can even get the ceiling fan moving. I haven’t exercise in a long time; so I am enjoying this. This is for beginners and slackers of exercise. If you order this do order the Sunlite Cloud Nine Gel Bicycle Seat Cover, for Cruiser or Exercise Bikes – the Pure Fitness seat is nice but the addition of this gel seat cover just makes it a better bike.

I bought this product when it had no reviews. I usually do not do this. I took a chance, and am glad I did. I believe in order to review a product properly, one must rate it based on others in it’s category. This bike is relatively cheap compared to other exercise bikes. Rating this bike against one that costs $900 is not very fair. So, when comparing this bike to other “cheapie” bikes, I would have to say I am glad I purchased this one.
It is extremely sturdy, and really makes you work. Exercise bikes that seem to coast when you use them are laughable to me. Isn’t the point of an exercise bike to make you… well… exercise? This bike does all that. It works your arms and your legs. I’ve been using it for about 2 months and it’s still holding up. The seat is a little hard to sit on, but if that bothers you, you can always purchase a $20 gel seat at any store that sells fitness equipment.
Also, if you have back problems like I do, you can put the bike flat against the wall and put your back up to the wall when you’re exercising. That improves posture and relieves some of the stress on your back.
I am very satisfied with this purchase. One of the better ways to spend part of your tax refund check.

I’m 5′3″ and 120lbs. The bike nearly tipped over on me several times. The arms move as you cycle, but when it extends, its too far for me to comfortably reach. Also there is no adjustable setting for tension. The fan is tiny too! For someone who is even in moderate shape, I don’t think you could get a good workout from. And I wouldn’t recommend to elderly b/c it tips to easily. Hope this is helpful.
