About Recumbent Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out.
The term recumbent literally means "lying down." Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

Much more than I expected,
This review is from: Ironman 125 Recumbent Exercise Bike (Sports)
This bike is well worth the money. I have ridden much more expensive exercise bikes that don't ride as smoothly. The manual tension control is precise and gives low to very high impact, and ensures that the bike will still work if the computer dies. The pulse feature is nice and accurate. There were no assembly instructions, but assembly is fairly straightforward. It has a very solid construction; I see it lasting a very long time.

Really, Really Bad,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Ironman 125 Recumbent Exercise Bike (Sports)
I bought the bike and it worked for about 3 weeks. I never could get the tension controls to work. Then the pedals fell off. I tried reattaching them but they would not stay on the bike longer than a few minutes. I contacted the manufacturer and was told they had no replacement parts available. So, I called Amazon and they sent a replacement. The replacement worked for 1 week before the exact same problem happened. Amazon is taking that one back too, but the product seems to have issues.
Maybe others have had better luck, but I wanted to share my experience in the hopes that you don't have to go thru what I have. UPDATE: After I returned bike #2, I bought the "Schwinn Active 20 Series Recumbent Exercise Bike" and it works great. It is about $100 more expensive, but it is well worth it. I noticed that the price on this ironman now is much lower then when I originally purchased it - which speaks volumes about the product as well. You get what you pay for.

grandma,
This review is from: Ironman 125 Recumbent Exercise Bike (Sports)
I really like it. It rides very smooth and I appreciate all the bells and whistles. Only negative is that it isn't easy to adjust for riders of different sizes. It takes a little effort.
