Oypla Arm/Leg Mini Cycle Pedal Exercise Resistance Bike Fitness Gym

Arrives in a brown box without any glaring declaration of the contents. Just has some sport name on the outside.Inside there is the exerciser, some feet, and a little bag with the pedals, a spanner and screwdriver. Oh, and there is a short instruction book.Easy to assemble, given the tools.It's a surprisingly decent unit, given the price.I thought the pedals stroke would be too short, but it's just fine. The unit is a friction type, and clearly does not have a flywheel, so it is really best at low friction settings, otherwise it gets a bit jerky.The display is very typical for this type of unit, and, frankly, it's a bit annoying, because it constantly changes what it's displaying. You can change that, but it doesn't remember. Fine, you can change it again, but it's kinda a pain to reach. Sheesh. anyone would think you wanted stretching exercises! Cheek!the straps on the pedals can't be directly adjusted, they need to have some screws removed. They do provide a screwdriver, but it's a tad slow using theirs and you are better if you have your own no.1 posidrive.The way I figure it, is this is a good test of your resolve. If you use this unit for a month or two then you can step up and buy a better one. If you (as most people do) never use it, then it's only a few quid wasted.I didn't find it suitable for under a desk. Unfortunately, my knees banged on the underside of the table.I also found it was best placed as far away from you as you could reach, it just made the motion smoother. I guess that's a drawback of not having a flywheel.Anyway, it's incredible value and at worst is a cheap way to test your resolve. Highly recommended.

I was afraid this might be a little unsteady for the price, but it is very safe and nice looking. Does the job nicely if you just need to work your legs due to inactivity. I agree with someone else's comment that it would be hard to use at maximum tension. The instructions could point out that there are specific right and left pedals in case you dont happen to notice. All in all a respectable item for the price and arrived in a flash well packaged.

I use this while in on my laptop working, the only down side is if you di t have it agaisnt anything you will find it slowly sliding away or maybe I'm peddling to hard, very good easy to use and brilliant to keep my legs moving while I'm at my desk for 12 hours

My wife spotted the Oypla Mini Cycle Pedal on Amazon and asked me to order it and once it arrived it was exactly what she had hoped. It is sturdy and very well made and easy to assemble. (Just note that one pedal is a left hand thread so it screws in anti clockwise.) This machine is perfect for exercising while seated, provides stimulation for the legs and certainly raises the heart rate, all good for fitness. Being small it is easy to store in corner and yet heavy enough to prevent it from moving while being used and the adjustable knob works well to increase the resistance. At the price it is exceptional value.

I bought this for my daughter as she has been u well and gets rather stiff joints.She said it was straightforward to assemble and although a little stuff to use at first, it is now fine to use. Great for art chair exercise if that's all you can manage.

I certainly don't recommend this. Get yourself the basic type and save yourself some stress. First of all, the tiny screws on the black hood are all RUSTED. Secondly, the hood is a nightmare to pull off and you have to in order to put the battery in. Thirdly, a battery is included but it's a VERY fiddly job putting it in its place which is almost inaccessible. Fourthly, the instructions show 2 base stands but doesn't stipulate that they're different sizes, as mine were. Lastly, 4 little rings (not washers) were included. I've got no idea what they're for.The pedals don't turn easily. It's as if something is stopping the belt inside the black hood from turning freely. Honestly, don't bother!

Very good product at very good value. Easy to use .

Didn't expect a lot. Bought a cheap machine as wasn't sure if would suit. I have a spinal problem and can't stand or walk far. I wanted a machine to improve leg strength and stamina but I had to be seated. Its early days but I can manage it and I can certainly tell I've used it. Tension can be increased but it does tend to slacken off after a bit and it can't be made very difficult. It also tends to be less smooth in operation as you increase the tension. The display I ignore as in my experience they are always inaccurate anyway.Build quality way better than expected.In summary, Its not perfect but for the money you pay I'd say it's a really good piece of kit and I'm happy
