Comfy seat good value
Overall played with the bike good value and comfy seat.Instructions could be clearer as certain items have nuts and bolts on them ie seats and pedals you just have to loosen them. Pedals and straps a little stiff but they do go in and stay in place just be sure to twiddle bolt at the end the right direction left anti-clockwise right clockwise and make sure seat bolts and washer are tight or you’ll have a wobbly seat.But a comfy seat and it arrived ahead of delivery. Be careful with the pin that secures bike if pulled out bike folds rapidly fast and there is a warning on bike.Great value for money, lightweight don’t take up too much space.

The saddle and pedals
I've had this bike for a while now (227 miles on the clock). Mine is painted black, but I've seen the same thing in the Amazon listings in pink, yellow and other colours, often at different (higher) prices as well.For a budget bike its ok, a bit upright I'd prefer to be able to lean forward a bit more than this bike allows, the cross supports are compared to others a bit narrow and can give the feeling when getting on and off with the seat up near the maximum that it might tip over sideways (it never has for me though).Now that saddle, it is the most uncomfortable shape imaginable, ridiculously wide at the rear end, causing considerable discomfort when riding and after getting off. I got a fit-all gel topper with an elastic surround, but its not wide enough for this saddle. The saddle cannot be replaced as it has a completely unique non-standard fitting.The pedals, are largely identical to those found on many of the other bikes in the Amazon listings, it makes you wonder if the bikes makers names mean anything at all, that they all come from the same place (once called badge engineering in the motor trade).The pedals are flat, with a rubber cross strap, and this is the problem, the strap fits across the pedal at an angle, which when riding if you don't concentrate on it can force your feet to splay out, bringing the heels in close proximity to the crank, I've never had a strike, but I've certainly felt the crank brush the heels. I purchased a new pair of pedals with fitted toe clips. Then found out the screws on the supplied pedals is also of a non-standard size. I'm in a quandary at this time, I can buy the equipment to drill and re-tap the cranks for a standard pedal (9/16" screw size, the fitted is somewhere probably metric between 1/2" and 9/16") for a further £25ish (over the price of the new pedals I already have) or is it time to ditch this bike for a better one. But how do you find out if other bikes have standard pedals.These limitations are a shame really, why couldn't they fit standard size pedals and a decent saddle, Cost I suppose. Other than all that the bike does what its supposed to even if its uncomfortable and non-standard everywhere a little tinkering would improve the rider experience. And how many of these bikes are sufficiently different with just a different paint job.

Great bike at a good price
Having let my gym membership lapse a while ago, I was looking to get fitter again at home, this bike - from the reviews - looked to be what I was after, & I am not disappointed. it is sturdily made, easy to assemble & folds up for easy storage. I was concerned that it would be small for me (i'm 6ft 1) and if I were a couple of inches taller it might be a problem, but its fine for me. The computer works fine for me, but the best thing is the built in tray I can drop my ipad into, I can now cycle all over the world curtesy of youtube cycling videos without leaving home!great product, I recommend it

Could have benefitted from better design
At slightly less than £90 I guess one has to accept limitations. However, with a little more thought to different body sizes/shapes it wouldn't have cost much more to cater for more people. I am 5ft 10ins with a 29ins leg and I would have liked the seat height up another 2 or 3 holes on the pedestal as I cannot straighten my legs and as I am facing a new knee operation I will not be able to comfortably pedal straight afterwards. A small adjustment on the stop at the centre of the X would have enabled me to set the seat and handlebar angle more comfortable for me. That I can alter though with the removal of the security pin for the time I am sitting on it. It is strongly made so on that basis I give it value for money.

Works great and comfort and efficient!
Overall the bike works as expected. Resistance range is diverse while cycling for a full workout, building your cardo and strength in the legs and arms. The seat is wide and soft, and is not hurting the bottom. The bike folds up relatively easily and space saving. All in all, very satisfied with this purchase!

Don’t purchase if you’re over 5ft 6ins!
I bought this bike for extra exercise, when I can’t get out on my road bike. A friend assembled it for me fairly easily and all seemed well until I got on it! Even with the saddle adjusted to full height, I couldn’t get a good stretch from saddle to pedals. I’m female, 5ft 10in, so not an excessive height by modern standards! Totally unusable for anyone over 5ft 6in!Can’t face dismantling and packing the bike for return, so have ordered upholstery foam to attach to the saddle and raise seat height. What a faff and very disappointing.

Overall very pleased with my purchase
Did a bit of research to find an exercise bike that did not take up too much room but was robust. not too heavy and was able to deal with a shorty I'm 5'3". Good monitoring app on the bike too. Overall very pleased with my purchase. The seat is comfortable compared to others that have been reviewed, and I put it together without too much difficulty.

Super for small spaces
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. Love this ...I was looking for an excercise bike that wouldn't take up loads of space in my house .. I have tested quite alot of bikes over the years and the fold up ones always seemed flimsy ... even brand name bikes ...This however absolutely fitted the bill! Its really strong and I'm quite heavy so if it can hold me then it can hold anyone! I always feel pretty comfy when I'm on it.Easy to carry .. the box is heavy but once it's assembled it's pretty impressive. Nicely padded seat ... a good height .. easy to pop together ...Really glad I went with this bike ... suits me down to the ground.
