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, but with the "any time, in any weather, from the comfort and safety of home" added convenience. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective work-out 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 while you work out. With uniquely designed air-resistance systems that actually increase air flow towards the body, fan bikes make an exceptional improvement on the classic stationary bike. As you pedal faster, the cooling air flow increases, making for a more enjoyable and comfortable exercising experience. Plus, fan bikes are designed to mimic the posture and feel associated with road cycles. Exercising in this position helps users train muscles as if they were cycling in the outdoors. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program, and fan bikes can be the perfect tool.

Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike Reviews on December 16, 2011
27 of 28 people found the following review helpful: ![]() By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike (Sports) I have used this exercise bike for a month now and have lost 10 lbs. with exercise and dieting. This bike is very easy to assemble if you follow the directions completely. Although the seat is very uncomfortable I purchased a foam pad cover and it is much better to sit on now. I highly recommend this product for someone with limited exercising capabilities like myself. If used properly it will help you to lose weight. After using this bike for a month I checked all the bolts and nuts and every one is still as tight as when i assembled it. A very good product for the price. 46 of 53 people found the following review helpful: ![]() This review is from: Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike (Sports) Beware the fan only cools around your ankles & this bike is EXTREMELY Noisy. I am afraid to use this in the morning as I don't want to wake the house. If watching the tv while riding I have to put the tv volume up high in order to hear it clearly over the noise. Assembly can be difficult and the arms are awkward 21 of 23 people found the following review helpful: ![]() By Dawn A. (Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews This review is from: Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike (Sports) If I could do it over again I would buy a different bike. I've had the bike for about 10 months and I can tell you it's VERY loud when you pedal, the fan does not cool you off, the seat is extremely uncomfortable, the handle bars are very awkward and you have to pedal pretty fast to get a good workout because the only resistance is the small fan. I'm saving my money to buy a different bike and tossing this one. |
