About 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. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program. |

 For what it's worth, great bike. |

I bought this product when it had no reviews. I usually do not do this. I took a chance, and am glad I did. I believe in order to review a product properly, one must rate it based on others in it's category. This bike is relatively cheap compared to other exercise bikes. Rating this bike against one that costs $900 is not very fair. So, when comparing this bike to other "cheapie" bikes, I would have to say I am glad I purchased this one.
It is extremely sturdy, and really makes you work. Exercise bikes that seem to coast when you use them are laughable to me. Isn't the point of an exercise bike to make you... well... exercise? This bike does all that. It works your arms and your legs. I've been using it for about 2 months and it's still holding up. The seat is a little hard to sit on, but if that bothers you, you can always purchase a $20 gel seat at any store that sells fitness equipment.
Also, if you have back problems like I do, you can put the bike flat against the wall and put your back up to the wall when you're exercising. That improves posture and relieves some of the stress on your back.
I am very satisfied with this purchase. One of the better ways to spend part of your tax refund check. ;-) |
Loud but good bike

| I ordered this bike because I couldn't afford the Schwinn bikes. This looked good; so I decided to go for it. In addition since I wasn't paying big bucks I went forward and ordered the Sunlite Cloud Nine Gel Bicycle Seat Cover, for Cruiser or Exercise Bikes to go with it. The combo of the two makes this a good bike. It took a while to get it together. The directions were good; everything was labeled but you need two people to do it. I put a mat down under the bike to cover the hardwoods. The bike is loud; so but the TV up to the 30's or 40's or use your Ipod. My bike is under the ceiling fan and so getting up to speed can even get the ceiling fan moving. I haven't exercise in a long time; so I am enjoying this. This is for beginners and slackers of exercise. If you order this do order the Sunlite Cloud Nine Gel Bicycle Seat Cover, for Cruiser or Exercise Bikes - the Pure Fitness seat is nice but the addition of this gel seat cover just makes it a better bike. |
Tips very easily. No adjustment as advertised.

| I'm 5'3" and 120lbs. The bike nearly tipped over on me several times. The arms move as you cycle, but when it extends, its too far for me to comfortably reach. Also there is no adjustable setting for tension. The fan is tiny too! For someone who is even in moderate shape, I don't think you could get a good workout from. And I wouldn't recommend to elderly b/c it tips to easily. Hope this is helpful. |
Pure Fitness - What? Really?

| I got this bike for my wife for her post-operative recovery. I tried it out after assembly, which was fairly easy, and realized just what we had here - a really cheap fan bike. It certainly helped get her range of motion back, but once she was back to 80-90%, she realized the same thing.... Wow - there's really no resistance to the thing at all, it tips easily, and we wish we bought a real dual-motion fan bike with some heft. I had a big Schwinn growing up for my triathalon training, and could rock it like a real racing bike...though it was loud and blew lots of air, you knew it was working! Selling this to another sucker. |
Crap Fake-Fan Bike

| There is no flywheel (i.e. when you stop pedaling, the bike stops, it does not coast to a stop from the momentum). Just a cable to a small fan. In this sense it is a 'fan' bike. But not in any useful sense, as the resistance is light and does not increase when you pump, providing a poor workout. Stay away. |
