Overview
A magnetic-resistance pedal exerciser that works as a leg cycle on the floor or, set on a table, an arm and shoulder cycle. Built for home physical therapy, joint mobility work and quiet seated cardio rather than as a full stationary bike.
The category label calls this an exercise bike, but there is no seat: it is a tabletop or floor pedal unit meant to sit under a chair or on a table.
- Patented adjustable magnetic resistance system
- LCD tracks speed, distance, time and calories
- Includes a Velcro strap to anchor it to a chair
- Molded pedals double as hand grips for arm workouts
Who it's for
Suits people doing home physical therapy for shoulders, joints or lower-body recovery, and anyone wanting a quiet, seated way to move while working or watching TV. Less suited to someone shopping for a standard upright or recumbent exercise bike with a seat.
Pros and cons
- Quiet magnetic resistance
- Works as both an arm and leg exerciser
- Wide resistance range for rehab progression
- Compact enough for a chair or tabletop
- Can shift on hard floors during vigorous pedaling unless strapped down
- No seat, so it is not a substitute for a full exercise bike

Frequently asked questions

Yes, place it on a table or desk and pedal with your hands; the molded pedals work as grips for an arm and shoulder workout.
