We have now had this bike for about one month.

Pluses:
1. super quiet. You can ride it while baby naps.
2. very comfortable.
3. with a recumbent it is easy to relax and read
while riding.

Minuses:
1. It is inherent in a recumbent bike that it is
not so easy to work the heart rate up--too easy
to just relax and read. Still, if this causes you
to use it more, maybe that is not so bad.

While I thoroughly enjoy the functionality and features of the unit, I found a major issue when first assembling and using the bike. On assembly at the factory, the bolt holding the right pedal assembly to the axle was crossthreaded and therefore crooked. As a result, the pedal assembly would not go completely onto the axle and was loose and making significant noises with each rotation. I have contacted the US representative and am awaiting a resolution.
