| Body Sculpture | BC4720 Spinner Bike | I found this product easy to assemble and was using it half an hour after getting it home. The milometer, heart rate monitor and pulse rate monitor helped me to build up my fitness slowly and under control. |  | Roger | 14/10/2009 06:40:22 |

| Roger | Black Silver Recumbent Bike | This is a very good product but lacking in expert advise on how to get the best out of it. I would buy a book but being disabled I doubt if there is one. The only things I have learned so far is wear track suit bottoms. Doing exercise in trousers will chaff the nether regions. Second use a towel folded to protect the lower back on the seat. I am able to do twenty minutes a day at 10 miles an hour which burns about 200 calories. This is the only exercise I do and hope to get up to an hour a day. |  | Anon | 05/08/2009 08:00:39 |

| York Fitness | York Anniversary C201 Exercise Bike | Having owned this machine for nearly nine months I can offer the following thoughts:
* It is stylish but with a relatively small footprint - you can use it in a space of 3ft x 2ft, ideal for space concious people
* The build quality looks promising
* It has a reasonably comfortable saddle that can be a little squeaky if you are pedalling furiously
* The computer is a joy to use with all the information you want about calories, distance, speed etc etc
* In operation it is very quiet (see below)
The only downside too date - a slapping noise from the inner workings suggested a problem, but a quick look under the cover discovered the cause. The computer cable had become dislodged and was chaffing on the internal wheel stripping the plastic from the cable. It is likely that we were just unlucky as apposed to a manufacturing fault and it was easily remedied with insulation tape and a cable tie.
Overall - there can be no excuses for keeping fit with this gadget!! |  | Amazon Reviewer | 06/09/2008 01:01:01 |

| Carl Lewis | Dual Action Air Walker | Love it. Having been pretty unfit for many years, I decided to give it a go and in just 2 weeks I have managed to progress from 10 mins and feeling majorly exhausted to 40 mins(600 cals) and thoroughly enjoying it on a daily basis. I personally found rising early and doing it on an empty stomach works best for me! |  | LindiLoo | 16/06/2009 14:43:53 |

| Horizon | BSC 200 | I’ve had this model for about 3 years now & I can`t fault it. The price was very reasonable & its very similar to bikes you would find at the Gym. I definitely recommend anybody to but this Exercise Bike. |  | Anon | 24/06/2008 14:36:30 |

| Horizon | SL3.0B Bike | The range of settings and levels of difficulty are really good to help you start as a beginner but advance steadily the more you use it. Seat was comfortable and adjustable and a child could understand the instructions! Also have had the Horizon SL 3.0B for about 3 yrs now and it still works the same as when I got it (although it squeaks at times - which I believe to be because of my powerful legs and high fitness level now!). The wheels on the front are pretty useful too as it`s a sturdy machine and I probably wouldn`t be able to move it too easily without them. |  | Dress | 22/11/2007 11:29:42 |

| V-fit | 5kg Flywheel Cycle | I just had this for xmas and this is a really good exercise bike for its price and it`s easy to assemble im only 14 and I done it in about 10-15mins top. But the foot straps are a bit too big for me so it bangs but Id advise everyone to buy it. I done 10mins on it and i was sweating like crazy! |  | Amy | 02/01/2007 09:27:38 |

| DYNAMIX | E170 EXERCISE CYCLE AND PULSE MONITOR | This has been the best thing I have ever bought,but the only thing I have against it is .The steam that holds the computer Pulse Monitor is very easiely snapped off ,as I found out when my three year old grandson leaned on it and now I can find anywhere to buy a new one.The monitor is fine and still works,its just the steam that holds it in place. |  | toggle | 26/05/2006 08:06:41 |

| Body Sculpture | BC1500 | Easy to assemble. Sturdy construction. Computer only displays in kilometres. Switches off after 4 minutes of non-use, does not store recorded data. Otherwise good value for money. |  | Andy B | 26/04/2003 16:19:27 |

| CARL LEWIS | SPN1 | Nice quality bike, altyough not for short people. I am 5` 8`` and had seat in lowest position! Also, not a true spin bike, as you cannot `jump` and go from seated to standing positions. Pedals become jerky and all momentum is lost. As a regular excercise bike it is fine. |  | pam | 03/06/2007 07:33:40 |

| Marcy | F581 | Bought this bike from argos,delivery was good as usual.construction of the bike is solid and looks smart.very quiet when in use.The display monitor is a let down,it is supposed to switch off by itself when bike is not being used but it doesent.being no manual off button i have to take batteries out.The pulse reading goes up and down even when my hands havent touched the sensors and the miles per hour is all over the place. |  | me | 20/01/2007 11:24:11 |

| Carl Lewis | Dual Action Air Walker | Dreadful. The levers became far too lose after just 2 weeks. They then began crashing into the frames at the side. Impossible to tighten again. Prior to this, however, I found the going extremely comfortable and was able to burn 300 cals a day in little over 30 minutes. But for just a few weeks that is not good enough. Beware! |  | Steve | 13/09/2007 10:36:24 |

| York | C520 | I bought this bike a week ago. Bike isn`t bad. But I have several remarks: - very strange system of control. For example to change some settings or set a program instead of the manual mode the pedals should be stand motionless (don`t pedal) - pulse is measured improperly (whenever you put arms on the sensors your pulse always starts from 72! and then increases gradually) |  | Alexey | 06/08/2007 13:32:40 |

| Marcy | Terrain Motion Cycle | We found that after the novelty of the constant incline/decline thing wore off (about a week) we just wanted to make it stop and be normal! Would be nice if there was an adjustment to make it stay in one position while pedaling for when you`re not in the mood to `ride the pony`. |  | Anon | 28/02/2007 19:15:18 |

| York | Platinum C730 | it`s good but I have problem with resistance functionality it`s not responding ie. when i increase rhe level nothing change on the resistance force. |  | MOHAMMAD HABAHBEH | 01/12/2006 14:59:16 |

|
| Marcy | Terrain Motion Cycle | The bike works well at first, but after a few weeks, there comes a very loud, horrible screaching sound when the seat post is on the down side of the cycle and climbing up. An even bigger problem; no amount of emails to Marcy were ever returned, and we were left on our own to spend laborous hours dismantling the unit to find the screaching and lubricate it. The area requiring lube, where the 8` flat rod connects the seatpost to the large gear, was not within easy reach without dismantling the casing surrounding the gear and belt drives. We have decided to leave the case off, since it appears the horribly loud screaching comes back, and needs to be lubed from time to time. |  | I do not recommend this | 23/11/2005 10:54:10 |

| V-Fit | AC2 Air Exercise Cycle | Bike was great except that within 14 months of having it the pedals fell off, and were irrepairable!There appears to be no way of getting replaceable ones so basically quite annoyed that l`ll have to get a new bike just because of faulty pealds! |  | Mel | 27/08/2008 17:44:45 |

| Horizon | SL3.0B | Horizon SL3.0B Exercise Bike. Less than 3 years old with minimal use. Howvere resistance stuck on high. Contacted www.horizonfitness.co.uk and was advised that it would require a new resitance motor for £25.00 and a engineer charge of £95.00 to fit. Feel that the charges are excessive and that the quality of this machine is very low. |  | Alphapets | 15/04/2008 09:58:51 |

| York | C520 | I bought this bike and within 1 week, a rattling sound started coming from within the unit. I quickly exchanged it for another unit and all is well for a month or so--then again the bike started making a loud rattling sound.

Many thanks in advance.

| Reebok | CyberRider | Good exercise bike, although lacking the features available in the CHEAPER models. Awful games controller. Saddle can be painful.
Definitely makes you exercise more often and for longer. Very immersive, particularly with a first person racing game. |  | Anon | 21/03/2003 16:47:14 |
