Folding Magnetic Exercise Bike X-Bike Fitness Cardio Workout Weight Loss Machine

Product Information

With this knowledge going off like a Belisha beacon in my head, my first outing on the Brand X Road Bike saw me enter a near state of panic on the crest of the first big descent on the bike. It would have had me reaching for a paper bag to breath into, had it not have been raining quite so much.

The large 700x25c wheels offer great strength and are more than capable of withstanding the city roads with their potholes as well as gripping all year round with the added width of 25c. Built, Tested and Tuned junior bikes which bring adult levels of comfort, safety and performance. Their lightweight alloy frame means they are excellent for transporting and loading in and out of vehicles. Overall I am very happy with the items I have had from them, the price is amazing and I've not had any issue with service. Particular stand outs to me are: With a secure 4 point strap mounting system and adjustable carrier clips, the Planet X Relay gives a firm and confident fit and secure mount for your bikes.The monitor is the last thing to look at. Situated right in the middle of the handles, the monitor has 6 modes to choose from. These modes are as follows: For anyone who's not been following my cycling antics of late - I live part way up a steep hill in a valley on the outskirts of Greater Manchester, on the edge of the Peak District. Hills, unfortunately, can no longer be avoided.

A small data screen shows your speed, mileage, calorie burn and time elapsed. The monitor is battery-powered. You can ride the bike without the monitor if you wish, and the bike doesn’t need to be plugged in to work. Unlike the X-Bike Duo monitor, the basic X-Bike monitor doesn’t include built-in workout programs nor a connection to iFit Coach for immersive personal training… so you might want to park the bike in front of a TV to pass the time. The console does have room for your mobile device or a magazine though. Would I buy a bike from them? Maybe not, but I am not sure I would buy any bike purely online so it's nothing against them personally. Fitness Savvy has reviewed a lot of exercise bikes and our advice is to decide what you really want from your exercise bike. So far as we can tell, the only benefit of this bike over others is that it can adjust between upright and recumbent. Riding on the road in the rain has never been my most favorite of pastimes. Add to the mix, lengthy steep downhills, a set of cable pull Tektro rim brakes and my heart rate will continue to rise well after the change of hill direction. Any makeshift repairs, adaptations, or changes to modify this product from its normal purpose and function as described in your user’s manual.With minimal gears to choose from, riding the Brand X Road Bike requires quite a physically dynamic performance from the rider. It was pleasing to feel that all my efforts were converting into forward propulsion, although a few more gears to shift up into would have been appreciated. I weigh around about 60kg /130lbs at the moment, and even with my not so spritely form these days, the bike was more than happy to respond to my efforts. It is worth noting that while having a flywheel design, this bike is very quiet and not too heavy. When you are done working out, you can fold up the bike and place it in your closet for easy storage. br_weight, 5, 6, Weight, 7.57kg (56)– Including 2x MOST bottle cages and Garmin mount, excluding pedals , Array, kg One of the big stand out features for me is that the Brand X Road Bike comes dressed inShimano Tourney 2x7 speed (14-28T), with Prowheel 34/50 chainrings and 170 cranks.

While both rim brake velos do share some design aspects - both have alloy frames and steel forks at their heart - the geometry between the two does signify a difference. I would typically choose more evenly matched tyre pressures and this may have affected the ride experience as a result.The design of the X-Bike Exercise Bike is not meant for users under the height of 5’4. While this is not specified by the manufacturer, many smaller riders had trouble using this bike. However, taller riders found that this is one of the only bikes able to accommodate their longer legs. This would normally be a big no-no with mechanical groupsets, but the Shimano Tourney was more than happy to be banged into the right gear without me having to ease off the pedals.
