Marcy Club Revolution Bike Cycle Trainer for Cardio Exercise, Multiple Colors Available

Quality commercial grade bikes have 4 things - belt drive, robust bottom bracket, heavy fly wheel, magnetic resistance. This bike has 3/4. Which, the magnetic resistance is more novel than necessity. With a belt drive, 40# flywheel, and strong bottom bracket, you'd need to spend $800 - $1200 to find a bike comparable to this one. After having had Sunny bikes, which served me well, this Marcy is a definite step up (within the price range, as stated above).I'm 6'3" my wife is 5'2" - this bike easily accommodates both of us. Also, if you've had other spin bikes, you probably are aware you can remove material from the bottom of the seat and handlebar brackets in order to get them to drop down into the frame further. As for the arm rests - if you're more used to spinning than road bike training, they can be annoying. I fixed this by removing the arm rests and installing tennis racket grip on. Works excellent.Additionally, I've always replaced the stock saddle with a Cloud 9 seat on all our spin bikes. Make sure to get the woman's version, as the male will be too big for proper leg movement, if you share the bike with your wife/gf/etc.Peloton releasing their app has to be one of the worst business models known to man. I would have bought a Peloton, if the app were not out. If you have a non-Peloton, simply get the app. To run on a big screen go ipad/iphone --> Apple Air --> Apple TV. My wife likes to use bluetooth wireless headphones while using the big screen.This is an great choice, buy with confidence.

This is a great bike for beginners. Its a good start for a decent pricePROS: Bike was easy to put together as it mostly came assembled ..just had to put on the feet, handle bars and seat....pedalsI guess its quiet, in a gym you have loud music so you dont hear the bike but the sound it makes is just a sound like brakes rubbing the wheel.The bike is sturdy enough that i can be in standing riding position and not feel like im going to break it (im about 260lbs)CONS: The riding position is more like speed riding...there is no space for resting position so I basically just hold on to the elbow rest when i want to slow it up.The bottom part that screw into the stabilizer bars at the feet is bent but not enough to effect anything

It arrived on time, however, the box was not in good condition. Installation is easy, all the tools needed are included although you need additional tools to really tighten the screws. There were some stains on the frame, a minor thing. This bike is sturdy and well built. There is a high pitch sound when adjusting midway from less to more resistance, otherwise it is quiet. Also there is a burning smell when adjusting to highest resistance. The main thing I don't lilke about this is the seat. It is like setting on a rock even with the gel padding and padded shorts. Other than that this is a very good buy for the money. BTW, the handle bars are also hard for the elbows, another minor thing.One year after, the knob to use to increase resistance is now broken. Looking online now for replacement part.Marcy does not have customer phone number. Went online and created a ticket. They responded and asked for proof of purchase. Emailed it to them and waited for few days. Nothing!! I went back online to check status, they CLOSED the ticket as if it was resolved!!! this product and customer service sucks big time!! DO NOT waste money on this.

I'm highly impressed with this spin bike. It is easy to assemble, stylish and solidly built to last. This spin bike is exactly what I wanted and it is much easier on the wallet than other bikes I was considering.

Assembly is pretty straight forward, not difficult if you look over parts. Not sure if I got unlucky and they mishandled the package or the builds of the mainframe come with imperfections here and there. Where the mainframe connects to the back stabilizer is severely bent so one bolt didn't go in fully which seems alright for now, but I'm questioning the longevity of the product since the mainframe came in bent to begin with. Box was a bit banged up, but I wouldn't think a few bumps and drops could cause the metal to bend to that degree. First test run was solid. Handles are not aligned or uniform, so it's a bit uncomfortable since I have to lean to one side more than the other. Doesn't bother me enough to warrant a return, but feel there may be people more bothered by this

Pros: Good bike, does the job. You get what you pay for. A good price for what it does. It’s a basic spin bike, strong, sturdy. Cons: seat is too small, not a good fit for me. The pedals are not equipped for clip on (spd clips) . I’ll probably eventually replace the seat and the pedals
