Stamina 1300 Magnetic Resistance Upright Bike Review

Sun, 28 Feb 2010 03:21:02 +0000

The Stamina 1300 Magnetic Resistance Upright Bike combines the advantages of stationary cycling with a magnetic resistance. The first is great for your joints, it gives you a low impact workout session right from your home, and the second is smooth and quiet, great if you want to listen to the TV or a radio, or just let the rest of the family take a nap.

It isn’t the most comfortable bike that you can buy, it is light weighted, and that is an advantage if you need to store it away after exercising, but it isn’t that great for stability, especially if you are a big person or ride the bike too fast.

Stamina 1300 Magnetic Resistance Upright Bike Specifications

Resistance- Smooth magnetic resistance with tension dial for adjusting intensity
Warranty- 1 year frame, 90 days parts
Display- InTouch Monitor with large easy-to-read numbers
Weight- 48 pounds
Dimensions- 35’’ L x 22.63’’ W x 48.5’’ H
Max user weight- 250 pounds
Workout area- 4’ by 5’

Simple and easy to use, yet effective

The Stamina 1300 Magnetic Resistance Upright Bike is somewhat as big as the name, the required footprint for the workout is 4’ by 5’, you don’t need the whole living room for the bike, but it does take some space to be comfortable riding it. If your house is a bit limited with the space, then you may find yourself biking in the backyard.

The 90 days warranty on parts isn’t that great, can’t expect much also from a less than $500 stationary bike like the Stamina 1300 Magnetic Resistance Upright Bike. Even so, customer reviews haven’t been so harsh on this machine and it seems to be reliable. There is one problem that it seems to occur, it does make noise after some wear and tear and time passes by.

There is a large and easy to read monitor that gives you feedback on speed, distance, time and calories burned, all controlled by one button. The seat is wrapped in vinyl with multiple seat positions, comfortable and fits almost every user, with a max user weight of 250 pounds.

Paying less than $500 for any fitness equipment like this is a risk, the quality of the construction relies mostly on cheap materials and they are more likely to break or get loose after some time and especially if you use it every day.

Overall, it is fit for someone not looking for a high standard stationary bike and who won’t be too demanding on the equipment. If you are an enthusiast of fitness, then the Stamina 1300 Magnetic Resistance Upright Bike will surely disappoint you and you should try something else.

Stamina 1300 Magnetic Resistance Upright Bike at a Glance…

Pros:

Easy and simple to use
Quiet operation
Comfortable

Cons:

Weak warranty
Large and occupies too much space

An entry level stationary bike that will fit the needs of a basic fitness enthusiast. It is cheap and problems will eventually arise, and the warranty is a bit short to cover problems over just 90 days. If you don’t want to spend more money and you are fine with the Stamina 1300 Magnetic Resistance Upright Bike, then it is good for you.

Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike Review

Tue, 16 Feb 2010 16:42:55 +0000

The Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike uses air as resistance, that mean that this bike is above all noisy. In its favor it has dual action arm bars that allow you to work your upper body as you keep pedaling, but is this good enough to cover the other cons on the bike, maybe not.

This bike is tried to be sold because of the dual action design on it, but besides from that the whole of the bike isn’t that great, especially if you think of the fan resistance that is noisy and doesn’t have any control, it just increases as long as you increase you speed of pedaling.

Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike Specifications

Dual-action arms provide a full-body workout
Computer output includes time, distance, calories burned, speed levels, and scan mode
Adjustable seat
Fan Resistance
Transport wheels
Warranty: 2-year limited warranty on parts

Noisy Fan Bike

The Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike is a fairly well built indoor bike, considering the price you pay for it, but you can lift too much your expectations about this product or you will be disappointed. The fanlike resistance is noisy, but if you like that noise it may even work for you, but do not expect to listen clearly to your TV or any music on your sound system, unless they are loud enough to wake up the neighbors.

It has transport wheels and only weighs 59 pounds, so it is easy to move it around the house and place it wherever you want it to be. The seat is adjustable to a wide range of heights for different users, but it is also uncomfortable and inflexible, it works better if you buy a padded seat cover.

The console is simple and the whole bike has nothing special about it besides the dual action arm handles. There are better indoor bikes that are sold for a bit more than this one and get you much more with a silent magnetic resistance.

Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike at a Glance…

Pros:

Cheap

Cons:

Noisy resistance

The Marcy Classic Upright Fan Bike doesn’t have much going for it, even the dual action arm handles don’t cover for all the rest of the bike that doesn’t achieve the quality that many others have, even if more expensive. You will be better off waiting more time and saving some money to buy another bike for you.

No Frills Upright Bike

The Ironman 125 Upright Exercise Bike is a what you see is what you get exercise bike, there isn’t much to be said about this exercise bike, other than it is priced very low and the quality of the bike may not be that great. Yes, the frame has a 1 year warranty on it, but customers have complained that it is hard to avail the warranty from Ironman.

It has all the basics for it to be called an exercise bike, it has a space saving design, it is easy to transport and needs some batteries to operate the console. It has 8 resistance levels, but they are not that great to really lift a challenge to intermediate riders.

It is better to save a few dollars and buy a better bike than this one, even if more expensive. This bike has a one year warranty on the frame, but it is a bit awkward since the price is low and the maximum user weight on the bike is only 250 pounds. To buy this bike is a bit of a risk since there aren’t many positive reviews on it and Ironman isn’t that famous of a brand for indoor bikes.

Ironman 125 Upright Exercise Bike at a Glance…

Pros:

Affordable
The Basics and No Frills

Cons:

Quality

Buying the Ironman 125 Upright Exercise Bike is a risk that maybe not worth taking, simply because for a few more dollars you can buy another bike from another brand that will promise you much more in quality than just 1 year warranty on the frame.

You have the Calorie Destroyer, the Fat Blocker, card games as Texas Hold ‘em or Blackjack.

Pros:

Comfortable and stable

Cons:

Games, may be distractive

Either you really like them, or you buy them for your kids in the family, or they are just distractive and not worth to buy the whole bike with them.

Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike Review

Thu, 11 Feb 2010 15:34:32 +0000

The Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike is a no frills, affordable and yet effective recumbent bike. It delivers a great cardio vascular workout, in comfort and with a virtually silent magnetic resistance. It has 8 levels of resistance to support you fitness levels and can be easily adjusted using a hand dial.

The frame can also be adjusted to different people with different heights, it is solid and sturdy, but someone with short legs may have difficulty reaching the pedals in this model even at the shortest setting.

Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike Specifications

Magnetic resistance system
8 resistance levels with adjustment dial
Comfortable step-through frame
Solid tubular steel frame
Sturdy pedals with secure foot straps
Dimensions: 58’’W x 38’’H x 24’’D
Warranty: 1 year frame warranty, 90 days parts

Affordable Recumbent Bike

The Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike may be long, just like any other recumbent bike, but it is easy for you to find a place for it in your garage or room. It is good for beginners and fitness enthusiast, but not as good as to be a good buy for advanced cycling fans.

The best about this recumbent bike, beside the price for quality ratio, is the resistance, it is a magnetic resistance that is smooth and quiet, great to use in the morning without waking up everyone in the house. The worst is the warranty that only covers 1 year on the frame and 90 days on the parts.

The adjustable frame gives this recumbent bike a plus, it can accommodate different users with different sizes, but once again the warranty in the frame comes to mind and that doesn’t show much confidence from Phoenix on the product. The price is great, very low, perhaps too low, and the warranty with this price raises some red flags about buying this recumbent bike

Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike at a Glance…

Pros:

Affordable
Quiet Magnetic Resistance

Cons:

Weak Warranty

The Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike has a very low price, that is something that probably will make you think about buying it, but the weak warranty may prove that the components on this bike are not as good as you’d expect and Phoenix doesn’t seem to put the warranty where you put your money. Think twice before buying this recumbent bike from Phoenix.
