I bought this thing because I wanted something easy to put together, cheap, and where I can use it while watching TV. This has been perfect for that! It’s been 2 months, and I’ve had many days where I’ll take this little thing out, turn on the TV, and just go. When I’m done 30 minutes later, I’ll put it away in my closet easily. I’ve even added some 5 lbs. dumbbells for assistance.
I will totally acknowledge that…
…if you’re looking for a vigorous workout, this won’t do it.
…if you’re looking for all-inclusive sports equipment, this isn’t it.
…if you’re looking for something that’ll count your calories or time for you, this won’t do it. (It comes with a timer, but it’s nothing special.)
…if you’re looking for something to replace your daily workout, this isn’t it.
However, if you’re looking for a cheap option that will complement your regular exercise routine while sitting, this is a great option.

You can use this thing for about 30 minutes before it gets too hot and starts to squeak horribly. You can tell it’s from overheating because the pedal arms get too hot to touch! We have two of them bought from amazon and we took them apart to see if we could lubricate the mechanism (not easy to do) but with wd40 and lithium grease it still squeaks like you’re strangling a goose. The manufacturer has a laughable return policy requiring original packaging, packing slips, paid shipping and mandatory insurance which makes it not worth it to try to return and therefore not worth buying if you are worried about the noise. OTHER than all that, it works fine.

One day I decided to stop sitting slovenly at my desk getting fatter by the day and actually do something about my health. After two months of pretending I might go to the gym, then not, I ordered this little cycle.
First off, let me say that I use it on a very low-pile carpeted floor and, as sent from the factory, it perpetually slipped. I fixed this with some superglue to the footcaps and haven’t had that issue since.
Second, like others, I found that after 5 or 10 minutes of use it would overheat and squeel loudly. A trip to my local hobby store netted a bottle of liquid graphite (the same stuff used to lube the wheels on pinebox cars), and again the issue was resolved.
So, after conquering the (I can only assume deliberate?) design challenges by the manufacturer, I’ve been using this little guy for several months with great results. Of course it’s a terrible substitute for a real workout, and yes I will probably go to hell for implying otherwise, but for people like me who will only really choose between “do little” or “do nothing”, this is a great little something to do.

Low impact, but will make the burn if you work it. I use it during the summer time when I can’t get outside due to the heat. You can sit on the edge of a bed or chair and peddle away in an air conditioned room. Doesn’t take up a lot of room to use. It takes a moment to get use to the foot and peddle action, you are not pressing down like on a bike but forward. Great for elderly or someone who is just starting out their routines. You do not need to stand up to use the product. Therefore, not alot of pressure on your knees. Very sturdy, even if you are over 300 lbs, since you are not standing on the machine it will work for you. Can be used under a desk at work, make a little noise. Works on the legs and moves the blood, great for the numb butt. It does not take up much room for storage, about 2′x 2′space. Easy to put together. Not what I recommend for traveling, it is alittle heavy. But a wonderful work out machine to use while listening to your Ipod !!
