" ... I just love it, it's quiet, it's sturdy, quality is same or better than the gym ones, and I can say it as an indoor cycling instructor. ... "
" ... Sturdy bit of kit, quiet, well designed, well finished and easy to put together. ... "
" ... Ease of construction. ... "
" ... Sturdy bike quiet in operation. ... "
" ... It's easy to move around, feels really strong. ... "
" ... It is very well built - sturdy and fit for purpose. ... The only thing we would say so far is that the saddle height / handle bar reach could do with being able to adjust a little more for a smaller person [my wife is only 5' 2" eg] - and the monitor would be easier to see if it was a 'backlit' type . ... "
" ... It works on magnets(3) being lowered towards the metal flywheel unlike pressure pad bikes i have been used to in the past. ... "
" ... Excellent smooth bike , however plastic belt guard was cracked prior to delivery ... "

" ... Very sturdy very quiet movable great quality bike only downside is the seat is too hard and uncomfortable so I’ve had to buy a gel/padded cover so hope that makes a difference ... "
" ... The frame is very solid, with a narrow profile and thin mounting for the seat so no rubbing against your thighs when cycling. ... There is a good range of seat heights and positions, meaning that it can be used by lots of different people, although the handlebars do not go up that much and forces the rider into an aerodynamic position and for taller users the seat is higher than the handlebars . ... "
" ... Managed to fit the water bottle using the screw that holds the cover for the top tube, so can stay in aero position when drinking. ... "
" ... Especially for the price this bike is great and fits exactly what i need it to do during the lock down times. ... "
" ... It works on magnets(3) being lowered towards the metal flywheel unlike pressure pad bikes i have been used to in the past. ... "
" ... Having a 20kg wheel is great and being belt driven with magnetic, the bike is very quiet. ... Note that you can actually adjust the magnet, instructions are on their website. ... "
" ... I’ve read a few comments about the seat being uncomfortable, but it’s a spin bike, they’re not meant to be comfy !!??!! ... "
" ... I'm 6'4" and the wife is 5'4" and the settings fit us both with room to spare in the seat although I'd prefer the handlebars to go a touch higher but its still perfectly usable and comfortable for myself. ... Packaging generally okay but heavy flywheel although well supported in position, could do with being wrapped in padded material as slightly marked. ... "

" ... Really simple to assemble, took 15 mins, so save the £75 assembly. ... "
" ... Installation - Youbdefinatley need two people to put this together, one person to press pause on the You Tube installation tutorial as you put it together!! ... Do not use the instructions, the You Tube Tutorial was excellent, enabling the bike to be ready for some action after 20 minutes! ... "

" ... Really impressed with the quality of the bike. ... "
" ... Generally I'm impressed, the bike is on some gym mats in my garage, I'm 90 kilos and 5'10 and have been riding hard for 5 years, and apart frim the max resistance being slightly less than I'd like for really hard out of saddle hill climbing, so far this is a close match to the bikes I've been used to in gym spin classes. ... "
" ... Excellent exercise bicycle. ... "
" ... The bike isn't perfect but it is perfect for me. ... For me together they provide the perfect alternative to heading to the gym, and mean I end up working out more regularly. ... "

" ... The screen provides the standard information on your ride, but I would say the pulse monitor set into the handle bars is rather inaccurate. ... "
" ... I'd advise binning the batteries provided and using standard branded ones as this substantially improves the screen clarity. ... "

" ... My only minor gripe is the heart rate monitor does not appear to work, I’m always showing well below my actual heart rate when compared to my TomTom watch. ... "
" ... Not a problem since you can monitor your heart rate much more accurately with a chest strap or even a wrist strap. ... "
" ... Can't fault it, runs smooth and quiet, feels high quality and worth the price point with the HR monitor and computer. ... "
" ... The monitor supplied is comprehensive with a rolling display for time, distance, speed, calories burned and heart rate. ... "
" ... So far I haven't found the HR monitor to be at all accurate, but that may be the way I'm holding the sensors ... "
