Circuit Fitness Recumbent Magnetic Exercise Bike with 15 Workout Programs, LCD and Heart Rate Monitor

The media could not be loaded. If your looking for a good recumbent bike then this one’s for you! The price is right & the set up is really easy it’s messy because it’s packed in styrofoam and plastic bags and cardboard. But it’s a very solid construction if you ask me ! I’ve had to tighten it back down a few times but that’s expected with a new bike just as it would be for an exercise bike! If your using it then it’s gonna put wear and tear on it. So preventive maintenance is how you keep anything in good working order ! I had it set up in about one hr and plugging in the neck and installing it was the hardest part because u have to shove the excess cord in before the tube goes down! But all in all I love it it has a cup holder & another storage slot plus a small shelf and a large shelf at the top for a tablet ! It has a plug in for your MP3 players or tablets so yes I absolutely love it and I’m trying to put 5 miles a day on it ! I miss some days but working in my garden makes up for the days I’ll miss or riding my mountain bike helps on days I miss also! Neways I hope this helps you make a decision on this wonderful recumbent bike oh and it has so many workouts on it also you’ll love it to because u can pause it and it will shut down automatically! Plus when it does you just turn it back on and start and it remembers your workout so you can start where you left off or reset it and start over plus it has cool down mode! You can also monitor your pulse & heart rate! Sincerely, a happy customer!

This cycle came sooner than expected and was easy to assemble. It took me about two hours to put it together but to be honest, I took some time away from the project. Overall, it is quite easy to put together. There are a couple of times it helped to have an extra pair of hands - mainly dealing with the mast and connecting wires but otherwise, one person can do the assembly. Once together, everything worked as expected. There are no specific instructions on using the exercise computer but it didn't take long to figure out. I love the ease of the up and down arrows, the seat is comfortable. I find the back very supportive and the seat is comfy enough for my 1 hour plus exercise time. The only issue I have with the machine is the tablet holder. It is angled, and I would rather have the tablet upright for my viewing pleasure. Right now, I prop the back of my tablet up to make it more upright. Overall, I find the machine to be sturdy, high quality, comfortable, and with enough resistance for my exercise needs. Plus its size fits in my office perfectly. I do wish it had a cumulative mileage feature. ButI would recommend this machine to anyone looking for a quality home exercise machine.

It took me about two hours to put it together by myself. But I took my time, had dinner, checked out some football scores. My bike went together easily and everything fit the way it should. Only downside was a lack of instruction as to what to do with the long wires that needed to be push down into the post when attaching the handlebar. I didn't want to take a chance of the wires being damaged. I taped them up and then carefully stuffed the wires.It is extremely quiet and solid! It does not rock at all.My wife and I have been using it for the past five weeks. I am a newbie so I have been taking it slow. The seat isn't that comfortable so I put a couch cushion on it.My wife was using a Gold Gym model for years, but it broke. She uses the bike about three times a week and pedals around 10 miles during one hour sessions. She really likes it, especially with the couch cushion on it. The beginner programs are actually quite good and the tension works great.Some reviews mention problems down the line, so we will see how this holds up.But at this time we recommend it.

I found it very easy to assemble except for the pedals which when applied in perfect form cross threaded anyway. I was at a loss as to why, but it unfortunately rendered the device unusable. I figured I'd call Marcy and plead with them to purchase new pedals and new crank arms, the crank arm was unfortunately not a replaceable item and the other was on backorder.Marcy's solution to this matter? I open my garage and I see a whole new bike. I have a love/hate solution to this decision because on the one hand I love that they did this, but on the other hand I feel that this is an absorbinate cost that they had to eat for what could have amounted to 30 bucks in parts. The least I can do is give them a review they deserve for not leaving a customer high and dry considering the circumstances. Many companies would have done this without blinking.The bike itself is comfortable, smooth and has no wobble unlike many other brands. The electronics appear to work great too. The ONLY thing I'd prefer is a not-picky thing: the space between then back of the seat and the back of the backrest is wider of a gap than I prefer and makes you feel slightly more reclined than what's optimal. But if you don't have pinges of OCD like me, you probably won't even notice.Great experience so far! Thanks Marcy

Shipping was fast and efficient, assembly was a breeze. I am extremely pleased with the quality and functionality of this recumbent bike. It’s everything the other positive reviews mentioned, and more. I’m 66 years old and in my younger years was a novice body builder who was used to using quality workout equipment. This bike definitively qualifies as such.It’s programmed workouts are progressive and allow for gradual increases of intensity. The comfortable seat provides the ability to endure each training session without pain and discomfort from sitting long periods.The pedaling resistance levels are consistently smooth and not cumbersome at all. The pulse grips have so far been accurate in reading heart rate. The screen provides everything an athlete needs to monitor before, during, and after a workout.All in all, I couldn’t be more pleased with this purchase. If you’re looking for a high quality, well equipped recumbent exercise bike, I highly recommend the Circuit Fitness AMZ-587R model.
