About Recumbent Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out.

The term recumbent literally means "lying down." Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must purchase!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, November 26, 2009

This review is from: Stamina 4545 Magnetic Fusion Recumbent Bike (Sports)
I felt it very important to do this review, because I think this has been the best money I have ever spent!!! I had an elliptical for a few years,it was given to me so it was used. It broke earlier this year and I was crushed. The really good ones are very expensive so I thought about a bike. I spent about 3 hours online looking over many websites for the best deal. I have so found it!! This is a great bike. First of all, I went with the super saver shipping and it arrived 7 days earlier than expected, which was great. Secondly, it took my husband about an hour to put together and he said it was really very simple and commented on how well built it was. And lastly, riding it is a dream come true. It is very sturdy and smoothe, and extremely quiet! For the price I am truly amazed at the quality of this machine. I would tell anyone out there looking for a great piece of equipment to go for this one!

I purchased the bike a few weeks ago and I love it! The bike was delivered on schedule and arrived in good condition. It took my husband and I about an hour to put it together and it works perfectly. It's quiet, comfortable, the seat position is easily adjusted and the monitor is easy to read with speed, distance, time, calories and pulse rate. I'd definitely recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A bargain for a quality piece of equipment., December 8, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Stamina 4545 Magnetic Fusion Recumbent Bike (Sports)
This arrived in flawless condition. Kudos to UPS and free 2nd day air courtesy of Amazon Prime. Aseembly took about an hour thanks to very clear instructions. The display has big characters and is easy to read. The display defaults to a scan mode, which cycles through the time, speed, calories burned, and pulse rate. Unfortunately, pulse rate takes 5 seconds to show up, by which time the display has moved on to the next function. Pulse rate can be manually selected. EDIT: pulse rate works fine in scan mode; you need to keep both hands on the handlebar sensors. Another note: the computer retains settings from the previous workout session. Press the blue "Scan" button and hold to zero out the memory.

Resistance is changed by pushbuttons built into the handlebars, so you don't need to bend forward to change it like some other bikes.

I like the design of the seat adjustment. If you have more than one person using this bike you will like it too.
