YOSUDA Recumbent Exercise Bike for Adults Seniors with Quick Adjust Seat, 350LB Capacity & 16-level Resistance

I don't think you'll find a more compact recumbent bike, perfect for my one bedroom apartment. It's solid as a rock too... I'm pretty sure the few reviews claiming otherwise, specifically complaints about seat movement, are almost certainly due to user error. The seat adjustment function is the only difference I'm aware of between the two product options (black vs silver model). The black version I purchased uses a knob that you pull out and then repeg into one of the few available holes in the metal the seat rests on, but after pegging it into a different seat position you still need to then rotate that same knob clockwise to tighten down the seat. It's fairly unique to have a knob that functions using a pull and peg adjustment mechanism, but also requires rotation using screw like threads to tighten down. If you don't rotate/tighten the seat adjustment knob after moving the seat to a different peg location, the complaints about the seat instability make perfect sense. If you do rotate/tighten the seat adjustment knob, there is zero instability at all it is solid as a rock.You definitely want to watch the assembly video, which included on the amazon product page, just cycle through the product pictures to find it. A few of the negative reviews I read before taking a chance and purchasing this obviously did not watch that just over seven minute long video, which resulted in the user error they were complaining about... Like the guy who found it "impossible" to complete the assembly step where you attach the tension adjustment knob because he specifically states "you have to assemble at tension level 16, the highest setting,", when in fact the video clearly explains you must adjust the tension down to the lowest level to assemble it.Unhelpful reviews resulting from user error aside... I did have the same issue several other reviews reported where the 2 screws needed to attach the electric display panel were missing from the package I received. This was certainly annoying and the manufacturer's email based customer support did take an entire week to respond to my email. Figuring I probably wouldn't receive any response to my customer support email based on other negative product reviews I just went to my local hardware store and purchased the missing screws for $0.62. The product assembly instructions at least provided sufficient size information for the missing screws ("M5*10"), the "M5-.80x10" size screws I purchased fit perfectly. I am very glad I bothered dealing with this small hassle rather than allowing my justified annoyance at this inconvenience cause me to return the bike.In the month since I purchased this bike, I have ridden 150 miles on it according to the bike's odometer. If you need a no frills exercise tool, especially with limited space like an in an apartment, and you don't mind dealing with the possibility of some assembly hassle and slow response from product support if the unit you receive has any actual defects unlike mine that has worked perfectly; I don't think you will find a better value than this bike. The ride is smooth and whisper quiet. The tension adjustment on the unit I received is more than sufficient for me and I have been involved in varying degrees of athletics my entire life. I am six ft tall and weight just under 200lbs and this thing has been very comfortable for me to ride. In the month I have spent riding this thing, the improvement I have felt in the lumbar spine condition I first began experiencing symptoms of several months ago has me very hopeful this few hundred dollar investment may literally save me from needing spinal surgery. I love this bike!I hope this review is helpful and I wish everyone the best of health.

I got a recumbent bike bc I have a knee injury and can’t run right now and need something for rehab. I didn’t want to buy and expensive one bc once I can run again I’m not sure how much I will use it. I was a little apprehensive about the instructions bc I hate instructions, my brain just doesn’t work that way. I recently put together my nephews hot wheel track and that was an accomplishment so I was nervous, but between the video and the instructions I got it done in about two hours. That said, the wires are not labeled so you kind of just have to guess and getting the bike pedal straps on was so incredibly difficult I had to leave it and come back the next day or it was going through the window. But I got it done.Now I like the bike, it’s easy to use but after about 25 minutes my tailbone starts to hurt. The seat is thin!! I have ordered a seat cushion that should be here tomorrow so hopefully that helps!Overall I like the bike, I like that you can change the settings easily, it was pretty easy to put together (especially for someone who has NO tolerance for that kind of thing) and I feel like it was good value. Just get a seat cushion!

Very well constructed. Comes with a very detailed step by step asselmbly book. This product will take about 2 hours to put together. Has held up well with 3 months of daily use.

Very well constructed, I weigh 265 pounds and I have no issues with the wobbling bending moving anything very nice product and real quiet. Can’t even hear it. I have it in the living room. I’d love it.

Well packed and all in good condition. Possible the best and most helpful directions I have ever encountered. Everything went together just like the directions said. The adjustment cable was a challenge but not that bad. I’m 73yr old and it took ma about an hour to assemble. Very pleased and would recommend. Seams to work well also. Very sturdy.

Made for 6'0 tall and shorter!

Very pleased .Easy to assemble,sturdy,silent,simple!

I purchased this recumbent bike to rehab my left knee that I had replaced. I’ve been using it now for 3 weeks, I’m on it 3 times per day for 15-20 minutes each time, It’s worked great for me. However, I’m using it to get my flexion (range of motion) back in my knee, when I ratchet it to the closet setting my knees almost hits the handlebars. I’m 5’9” so anyone taller won’t be able to use the last or closest position to maximize its effectiveness. As a product improvement suggestion the manufacturer should have straight handlebars versus curved or should have the handlebars moved farther up away from the pedals.
