I have had this indoor bike for a couple of weeks now. There are a lot of options when it comes to a spin bike. I wasn't ready to commit $1500 to the Peleton just yet. So i decided to look for a simple, good quality indoor bike in the $200-300 range. Amazon Prime to the rescue. I decided to take a chance on this brand without any real knowledge about it. It turned out to be a good decision. I can't really compare to any other brand but here is what I like about this bike and why I gave it a high rating.
First, being available on Prime was a good way to protect myself if the quality had been horrible or i had any problems. Not to mention free delivery for a very heavy item. In my case, the bike arrived quickly and without any problems. Removing it from the box, it had all of the pieces and it was pretty easy to assemble without any extra tools or skill. The kit included a multi-purpose wrench that did the job. The main part of the bike was already pre-assembled so I just needed to add the feet, handle bars and seat assembly. Overall, it took me about 30 minutes.
I am 6 foot and 200 lbs and I find the quality of the bike to be very sturdy and solid. No rattling or squeaks. It takes a few minutes to dial in your seat and handlebar settings but would be any bike.
This bike has a heavier flywheel than some of the other similarly priced options and that was one of the deciding factors for me in choosing this brand over others.
After assembling the bike, the flywheel was rubbing slightly against the chain guard. I was not sure how to adjust that so I contacted the company. They replied within a few hours (time difference to China?) with very clear instructions that worked like a charm. I was able to fix that issue in just a few seconds with a quick adjustment and I have have had no problems with anything on the bike since. It does just what i wanted it to do and i didn't break the bank. It makes ZERO noise when the resistance pressure setting is on zero. The only negative to consider with this type of indoor bike is that the resistance is applied by a pad pressing against the flywheel. It makes some rubbing noise from the friction. I did not deduct on my rating for that since I think that is standard for all of this style of indoor bike.
So I tried to base my rating on the quality, features and service as relating to the very low price and against other indoor bikes in this price category. It is not meant as 5 stars as compared to the Peleton or other $1000+ options. Sure, you will be able to find many good indoor bikes with other features. But for the price, you should consider what you really want. This bike was exactly what I wanted.
UPDATE:
I love this bike! My next door neighbor got a Peloton and I was so envious when I tried it out. She pays almost 40 dollars a month for the required subscription to the classes online and paid almost 1800 with certain adds on. I in no way wanted to comitt to a subscription orrr that much money when I wasn’t sure I’d stick with cycling. My first bike was a very flinbsy Walmart cycle I spent 100 bucks on which did end up breaking quickly and was a terrible first try for cycling. When I found this the cost was fantastic for the style and look and I had high hopes THAT HAVE COME TRUE! Extremely solid bike. Does not wobble or move. No loud sounds, peddles are great, everythings adjustable, and I absolutely can say hands down for the dollar- you won’t get much closer to the Peloton in this price range! I found numerous FREE YouTube videos of virtual bike rides and I’m on this bike everyday twice. I’ve used it about 20 times so far and it’s just fantastic.

Great bike for the dollar amount! Sturdy, solid, works beautiful! Took about 40 minutes to put together. The main part comes together, just install the pedals and seat and handlebar. I didn’t tighten everything solid until I got on it the next day for my first ride so I could adjust the height of the handlebars and seat. I had a cheaper bike before this one to start on so this was an upgrade. I truly think hands down this is one of the best for the money range. I was a little small noise at first on full tension but as soon as you loosen the wheel tension for a smoother ride it is very quiet. Just love it. Comes with the tools to put it together. Super easy to do!!
UPDATE: After writing this review, I was contacted by the seller, who sent me the replacement part. The part was easy to install and the bike now works well again.
I purchased this bike about three months ago and loved it. I am a moderate exerciser and used it with a spinning app 30 minutes a day/5 days a week. About three weeks ago, the tension resistance knob stopped tightening past a certain point. Closer inspection revealed that the top portion of the bolt of the adjustment knob had stripped and so no longer tightened. This seemed like an easy fix; I just needed a new adjustment knob piece. I contacted the seller through Amazon and requested a new part. I even offered to buy the part despite the fact that the bike was only a couple of months old. The spokesman with whom I corresponded was polite and apologetic, but after numerous back and forth exchanges (including sending pictures and video of the part) he informed me that they did not have the part on hand and didn't know when it would come in. I have not heard from him since. This part is readily available for other brands of bikes (but alas do not fit this one), so I don't really understand why they can't obtain it. With the current piece, the bike can only reach moderate resistance, so it doesn't offer much of a workout. I essentially have a giant paperweight in my living room, which is a shame because I really enjoyed the bike for the few months when it worked.
I’m new to cycling but got this bike instead of a gym membership. (That way I don’t have to leave the house to get cardio and have less of an excuse not to workout). I love it already.
About me: 5’1, 100lb female
Assembly: Mostly easy. The manufacturer sends everything you need, a multipurpose wrench, and a few extra screws and nuts in case you lose one. It’d be easier to assemble with two people but I managed to do it myself until putting on the seat at the end. (I was worried I wasn’t screwing it on correctly).
I searched on YouTube the best height to put the seat and handlebars, which was helpful. I have adjusted the settings a little to be more comfortable.
It works great. Some other reviews online say the monitor only tracks km/hr but this does have miles per hour. It’s just expressed ML/hr and I’m used to seeing mph.
Also, the company is quick to respond to questions and very helpful. I didn’t realize the seat angle can be adjusted but it definitely can.
My first spin bike, so I didn’t know what to expect. I have to say I’ve been very pleased.
It took me a little longer to assemble than some of the other reviewers, but I got it without too much trouble.
I’ve ridden it once-twice a day since I’ve had it and I can already see a difference in my weight. Big plus!
All in all, an excellent return for my money.
As an update, since I got the bike, I’ve lost over 50 pounds and feel entire worlds better. The inches have just dropped away and I can’t be more pleased with my purchase.

Description
This was so easy to set up. Simple instructions, excellent bike. The seat isn't bad (as some mentioned). It's actually quite cushioned and it's very quiet. I'm thrilled I found this.
Awesome bike! I just got it in the mail today and it took me about an hour to put together. Instructions were very easy to follow and all the tools necessary are provided in the pack. Nothing came broken and after my first ride on it there were no strange sounds or issues. This is my first spinning bike and I know absolutely nothing about the sport. But as a stay-at-home mom who lives where there’s five months of winter, some sort of exercise was necessary and regular stuff (push ups, jumping jacks, etc) just got plain boring!
The only issue I could see is with a taller rider. I’m 5’8” and to be honest, it’s almost a little too short for me. I don’t know if my legs are supposed to be able to extend fully or not, but they don’t and I also have the extensions as far as they can go. It’s not by much but it would be of concern for someone 6’0” I imagine.
Other than this, it’s an awesome bike and I totally recommend it!
Finally got this stationary bike out of the box, assembled and ready to go ... and I am extremely pleased with the performance and appearance of this product. It is everything I was hoping for and more ... would highly recommend.
The exercise bike took me for over an hour to put all together including the unpacking and everything. I am very happy with this purchase because it's worth the money unlike the other one that I had before bought it at Sports Academy didn't last a year. This new one it glides smoothly no problem so far ! I live in an upstaris apartment so I had to be sure what ever product I chose was quiet. This is VERY quiet, perfect for any time of the day without bothering anyone downstairs.
The bike was easy to put together I did it by myself. It is not to big so it doesn’t take up to much space. It’s also not loud when you are on it. I think it’s really good.
