About Upright Fan 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, but with the "any time, in any weather, from the comfort and safety of home" added convenience. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective work-out 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 while you work out. With uniquely designed air-resistance systems that actually increase air flow towards the body, fan bikes make an exceptional improvement on the classic stationary bike. As you pedal faster, the cooling air flow increases, making for a more enjoyable and comfortable exercising experience. Plus, fan bikes are designed to mimic the posture and feel associated with road cycles. Exercising in this position helps users train muscles as if they were cycling in the outdoors. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program, and fan bikes can be the perfect tool. What's in the Box?

 Good sweat January 20, 2008

The product makes me work and sweat and that is good. Good workout, reasonable price, decent quality, well worth the dollars spent.
Only problem if you are short August 21, 2007

I got this a few months ago and really like it. It only took a little bit to put together. It's light and easy to move, so I don't have to leave it sitting in the living room when I'm not using it.
The only issues I have with it are that the distance counter doesn't always work and I'm too short to reach the handles. I'm 5 ft 2 in and have to lean over quite far to reach the handle when it's fully extended.
But other than those two things it's a nice bike and I'm glad I purchased it.
 WHERE DID THEY GET THE WRITERS FOR INSTRUCTIONS July 8, 2007

The product works fine but putting it tpgether was very difficult. Obviously English is not their native language and it must have written by committee.
Not what I'd hoped for. December 13, 2006

I bought this bike on sale at a local sporting goods store for $99. Assembly was pretty easy and the bike seemed fairly sturdy considering the price. Unfortunately there was NO resistance whatsoever. I even tried wrapping a bungee cord tightly around the handle bars; it increased the resistance slightly, but nowhere near what I had hoped for. Within 10 minutes of finishing setting it up, I was taking it apart again to return to the store.
Right now I'm shopping for a *real* exercise bike, leaning toward one of the Schwinn models.
Impressed with Marcy Bike May 14, 2006
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
When I unpacked the bike I was impressed by the design and the quality of the construction. The instructions were clear and the bike assembled easily. It works great...Runs smoothly and quietly. I'm looking forward to using it daily. If there's a negative it's the seat, it's pretty hard. I've ordered a foam pad.
