Overview
A foldable upright exercise bike from Marcy with eight levels of magnetic resistance, a 14 gauge steel frame, and an LCD display tracking speed, distance, time, and calories.
- Eight preset levels of magnetic resistance
- 14 gauge steel frame construction
- LCD display for speed, distance, time, and calories
- Recommended for riders 5'1 to 6'3, up to 250 lbs
Who it's for
Works well as an entry level cardio bike for beginners who want quiet, low cost resistance training at home. Intermediate or advanced riders looking for a harder workout, or taller riders near the top of the height range, may find the resistance and legroom limiting.
Pros and cons
- Notably quiet motion for shared living spaces
- Straightforward assembly, often done solo in under an hour
- Eight resistance levels for adjustable intensity
- Forward pedal position that some riders found gentler on the knees
- Resistance tops out too low for intermediate or advanced riders
- At least one taller rider could not fully extend their legs despite fitting the stated height range
- Seat comfort criticized by at least one reviewer
- No wheels for moving it once folded
Performance notes
Eight preset magnetic resistance levels let riders adjust intensity, and the pedal position sits more forward than a traditional bike, closer to a recumbent stance, which some riders found easier on the knees. The frame folds for storage but has no wheels, so moving it once folded means lifting or dragging it.
