Overview

A seated, magnetic resistance pedal exerciser with 8 resistance levels and a removable LCD display, built for under-desk use or low-impact leg exercise while seated.

It runs on two AA batteries for the display rather than household power, and the steel frame is heavy enough to stay put on hardwood or low-pile carpet without sliding.

  • 8 magnetic resistance levels
  • LCD tracks time, RPM and calories
  • Powered by 2 AA batteries, no cord needed
  • Steel frame with bungee straps to secure pedals

Who it's for

Desk workers who want to add leg movement during the day, and people managing limited mobility or recovering from injury who need low-impact seated exercise. Less suited to anyone who needs a lightweight unit that fits under a very low desk.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Wide pedals allow foot repositioning for different motions
  • Removable LCD display can sit on the desk instead of underneath
Cons

  • One reviewer found it too tall to fit fully under their desk
  • Requires assembling the foot boards on both sides before use
