Stamina 1350 Magnetic Resistance Recumbent Bike

I was very pleased with this bike after assembling the parts in less than an hour. You are getting a 0 bike, not a 0 bike, so forget the bells and whistles. I needed to exercise my arthritic knee and strengthen the surrounding muscles in hopes of avoiding partial knee replacement surgery, so we’ll see what happens, but it serves the purpose nicely, especially if room for the bike is an issue. It is sturdy and worth the time and expense, and the folding option is one of the reasons It was purchased.

If some of the bolts seem to not fit through the pre-drilled holes just use the enclosed tool and they will land where they are supposed to; it’s no big deal. I did use my own wrench to attach the handrail behind the seat because there is no law that says you have to use the enclosed tool. If you are handy this is not a big deal assembly. If you are not just take your time and READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS!!

The one process that can be time consuming for someone without any arm strength is adjusting the seat using the adjustment knob. It is a snug fit for a reason and you have to use some finesse and power. This would be an issue if different sized people were using this bike, but it is not the end of the world. If there is one person there are no issues.

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.
