Recumbent Cycle Reviews
Sunny Health&Fitness SF-RB1117 Folding Recumbent Bike
I prefer recumbent bikes (but don't have the room for a normal one) - this one has a more upright feel than normal recumbents - but still works to slightly lean against the back and is comfortable. I like that I can also lean forward against the front bars as well as another position. So far this one is working well and I really like it. I love that it folds up.

I purchased my first one and it lasted four days before it started to grind and groan and clang and bang. I exchanged it for a new one and it lasted thirteen days before the same thing happened to it. I am now waiting for a warranty repair. I hope that it can be repaired because it isn't a bad cycle design. The problem is poor construction and parts and assembly back in good ole China.

I purchased this item because of the price and convenience of the work out. The floor model at the store seemed to be well put together and the ressitance was perfect. However after getting it home and spending 1.5 hours assembling it, the problems started. The resistance was not what i expected.

Surprise #3. I admit that I was a little disappointed when I saw that dreaded, "Made in China" printed on the box. I almost canceled my order. The real...

ProForm XP 440 Recumbent Cycle
It took awhile to put this togther also and like the other review said my console also comes on about every 20 minutes and I had a tech guy come out and he ordered a new console but I haven't received it yet because they are on back order. Their is no place on this bike to plug in the adapter, even the tech guy said an adapter doesn't work with this bike. I really do like using this bike but I hope after I get the new console it doesn't keep coming on by its self.
