Sweat guard does not cover the whole wheel front to back - width ok.2. Seat post can be felt by upper legs if narrower seat fitted.3. Display cycles between watts and RPM instead of constant display.4. Flywheel can be noisy when applying friction pad - I put GT85 on the outer rim which quietens it considerably but obviously friction is less until wears off.5. If lube applied, friction on the wheel can be variable.Still pleased with purchase.

I teach spin, I wanted a spin bike for at home to replace my old regular exercise bike. I did research other brands, I had used Schwinn to teach on & liked them so that’s why I went for this bike. It was very easy to assemble. It’s heavy enough to be sturdy but not too heavy to move, you tilt it & wheel it. Handles, Seat positions/height easy to adjust. Bike is quiet & smooth to use. Display shows you the basics - Time, RPM, Speed, Distance but not Resistance, increase or decrease that by twist of a knob & go by how it feels.Am very happy with it it’s a Great Bike!

I'm a beginner but I want to get fit. This is just the job with a great range of resistance levels, great build quality, quiet. It's a pleasure to use. It could be improved by having numbers associated with resistance levels (so you can get back to it), and magnetic resistance would probably last longer. But at this price, I can't complain.I did have to replace the seat with a comfort Schwinn seat found on Amazon. The original seat will only be suitable for well seasoned cyclists!Oh, and this bike is HEAVY. Not as easy to move around as I expected. But, that seems the same for all spin bikes due to the flywheel.

A great indoor bike, easy to assemble and use.Only downside is the felt pad on the front wheel fell off on our first bike but Amazon quickly replaced whole bike. Would be helpful to have more information about keeping that pad lubricated. Be good to have a small sample of oil to use for a while. We had to buy a spray bottle of suitable oil to keep the pad hydrated, if not it rubs against the shell causing an awful noise.The wheel moves smoothly and the adjustment is good. Seat is supposed to be padded but we have had to add an extra seat pad for comfort.Good value.

This a really sturdy and well built bike, definitely worth spending a bit more money on.

I bought this one to replace my previous one, that only lasted 18 months. This bike was the only name brand that I recognised on Amazon, and having used Schwinn products at the gym, I thought it best to buy something that I'm familiar with. Assembly was fairly easy, but I did struggle with installing the display, as I couldn't get the right angle to put the screws in (I had to lay it on its side to do this). The bike is QUIET and is very STURDY, and there is virtually no movement/noise when using it at a higher speed. In my experience, you do have to spend more for a quality item, so I expect this one to last me years. However, I have taken out the insurance for peace of mind.

Extreme pain when riding this

I've had a different spin bike at home that was clunky and uncomfortable. Decided to spend a little more and reviews were good so went for it. Easy to put together, smooth ride and love that it comes with cleat pedals. The holder for water bottle/ipad is also very handy. Personally I would like to be able to put seat a little more forward as is as far as it can go. That said it would not detract from me recommending this bike! Good delivery and helpful people as had to get up quite a few steps.
