ShareVgoBluetooth Smart Folding Semi Recumbent Magnetic Upright Exercise Bike with free APP for Indoor Bike Workout Log and Track, Backrest, Pulse Sensors and Tablet Holder - SXB1000

I'm recovering from total knee replacement surgery. I've heard that an exercise bike is a great way to strengthen the new knee and the whole leg. I am a complete exercise newbie. In fact, friends that hear I have an exercise bike will probably laugh. It doesn't matter! I am determined to have a complete recovery.PROS: - This exercise bike is a great value for the money. - It is great starter equipment for an exercise newbie like me. - It requires ZERO electricity, so you can put it anywhere. - It is the quietest piece of equipment you can imagine. It makes basically no sound at all! - It was easy to assemble. It comes with easy to understand instructions. It also comes with all the nuts, bolts, and even the tools you will need in a conveniently labeled package. The whole process took just under an hour. - It comes with a companion app for your phone (both iPhone and Android versions are available). The app provides a colorful display, suggested routes, and challenges. This is a very good thing because the standard display that is attached to the bike is 0% exciting. The suggested routes are NOT fancy videos, like you'd get on a top-of-the-line bike like a Peleton, but keep in mind this bike costs less than $200.- It has adjustable tension (difficulty), which I frankly haven't explored because let's face it, I'm a total amateur at this. I figure I'll ramp that setting up after I've been at this for a while.CONS: - It is rather difficult to mount and dismount, especially for someone who is not very tall, like me. I solved this problem by placing a step stool on the right side of the bike. I stand on the stool, grab the front and rear handlebars, and carefully swing my left leg over the middle, placing it on the left side pedal. Then I (not too gracefully) swing myself into the saddle of the bike. Dismounting is basically the same procedure in reverse. I lift my left leg over the middle, swing my whole body around so that I'm perpendicular to the bike, and carefully stand up on the step stool. The time I tried to do this without the stool, I ending up on my butt on the floor. So I highly recommend a step stool for anybody who is shorter than about 5'7" or has short legs.- It comes disassembled, obviously. It is shipped in one box and that box is HEAVY, so be careful when you try to move it.All in all, this was a fantastic purchase! I would buy it again.

I've had the bike for just over a week now and am enjoying using it every day. I'm 4ft 11in so a lot of gym equipment doesn't fit me well. This bike works well and I even had to move the seat back from the shortest position so it would definitely work well for other short people.The bike was easy to put together but one of the O-ring was incorrect. I emailed customer service and got a response within the hour and a replacement part shipped immediately. I had another question because I was having trouble with the pulse sensors and again, got an immediate response and fix (battery issue not sensors). Customer service was top notch.I love the app as it helps keep my interest and challenge me while I'm on the bike and keeps track of my progress. Being able to switch between upright and recumbent cycling is good for variety too. I use the tablet rest all the time so that I can watch Netflix while I cycle. It's sturdy enough that if I angle it flat I can put my laptop on it.Great bike, I highly recommend it.

I'm impressed with the bike and how well it works. It's whisper-quiet and convenient to store. It offers good resistance when you turn up the tension. The display, while quite 1980's in design, gives a good array of information. The companion smartphone app adds a calorie counter, and is quite useful. The assembly instructions seem daunting when you first look at them, but it's actually pretty easy to put together. One negative is the seat, which has a seat-back that is positioned too far back to be useful, but it's not a deal breaker. It also wobbles side to side a bit even with everything fastened tightly. The water bottle holder is a bit uncomfortable to reach as it's mounted on the front and interferes with the wiring a bit. All in all though, for the price it's a good value and seems like it will hold up well.

I recently purchased the Model SXB1000 exercise bicycle.  I purchased the bicycle because (1) it was easy to assemble* and (2) it had an app to track workouts**. Unfortunately, I have not been very happy with the product primarily because the app was not syncing with the bike.Since then, I have been working with ShareVGo's Customer Support team to identify and correct the problem. I appreciate that they were very quick to respond and continued to ask questions until the problem could be identified. They quickly offered to replace what was thought to be a defective part, but thankfully that solution was not necessary.Based on my interaction with ShareVGo, Ihave upgraded my evaluation from 2 stars to 5 stars. The product is solid enough for home use without having to purchase an expensive gym-quality product.

This would be a lovely indoor bike, but the display doesn’t work correctly. It seems like a pain to disassemble it to return it, so I guess I will deal with it since it can show me the stats in-app.You need batteries for the display, too. Thankfully I had triple a batteries on hand. That isn’t too big of a deal, but it is worth mentioning imo.The app connects to Apple Health, and it only connects to Fitbits. My Garmin Vivoactive 4s is useless, as is my partner’s OnePlus smart watch. It would be nice to have that connectivity.Also, it would be nice if the app rides were more interactive. If it told you to adjust the resistance at certain points in the bike ride, that would spice things up a bit.One review said that the rides are kind of low-effort because it only shows you a picture of the place you are “biking”. Not sure what I was expecting, but it wasn’t that.Overall, it works great, get the job done, and folds up nicely to save space.Though, as one reviewer mentioned, the backrest is wobbly. I will likely replace the top part that is the rod with the pull ring with a screw, washer, and nut.
