Assembly & Initial Impressions
I haven't used it much yet but wanted to review the assembly and initial impression.Assembly:As some other reviews noted, the instructions rely on some very dark photos that are difficult to discern, which was a big part in my giving it 3 stars for assembly (I'd give it 3.5 if I could). I highly recommend having the product page with the images open/viewable for reference when assembling. Step 4 was the most difficult for me until I did this, and I also included a photo of this step for others to reference. The last step is attaching the seat handles, which seemed like it would have been easier to do with the rest of the seat assembly so you're not fighting gravity.The only other trouble I had was with the "computer system." Per the instructions, I put in the AAA batteries (not included) then connected the wires, but the display was stuck reading "888" and pressing the buttons nor peddling had any effect; it also never turned off even after hours of inactivity overnight. But when I unplugged it and took out the batteries, then connected the wires before putting in the batteries, it worked fine. And though it comes with the required tools, having a ratchet with multiple sockets and screwdriver heads made assembly significantly easier (some screws were a bit tough to tighten by hand or the angle was hard).Initial impressions:Pros - I like the size and weight. It doesn't take up too much room in my small place. I'm 5'4" and like the reach of the pedals in upright and recumbent positions. Tension at the different levels seems great too. The seat is comfortable, unlike reviews I read about other bikes.Cons - It felt a tiny bit unsteady and like I was leaning to the right, but getting a level proved that the seat and machine feet were fine, and just the part with the handle bars and display are not level. Some small scratches and the extra, unwrapped pair of pedals with one missing strap were clear indicators the product had been returned before.Early Conclusion: Assuming it lasts me a while without issue, overall I think it's fair for the price (especially with the increasing demand these days).

OK portable cycle for the price
I'm 4 foot 11 1/2 inches with a 26 1/2 inseam and this cycle is just the right fit with the seat at the lowest setting and with me wearing my sneakers so if you have shorter legs it may be challenging to reach the pedals.Overall I'm satisfied after day one of using it, but some things stopped me from giving this cycle 5 stars. First the directions could be better. The pictures are small and in black and white so you have to be careful while putting together the seat and backrest. I was able to assemble this cycle by myself and it took about 35 minutes - better directions would have made it easier. Second - the seat is not very comfortable, but not the worst - I plan on finding a more comfortable cover for it. Third - all the diagnostics work except for reading my pulse rate. All I get is a "0" reading. I have my FitBit on so this isn't a big deal, but still it should work out of the box. Fourth - I had to keep tightening the knob screws for the back rest and the seat height, they seem to loosen with normal use. Also there was one small dent on the back floor support and a small tear in the foam covering the side seat bar. Neither of these affect the structure so not major issues. It is compact, very quiet, and my Kindle fits in the console "pocket" which is what I was looking for. Also mine included a second set of pedals - a nice surprise in case I need to replace them.Overall, it's not a high end cycle, but all I wanted was a basic, quiet, portable model to get moving again and this seems like it will do the job at a decent price. I will update this review if anything changes.

Space saving exercise bike.
The media could not be loaded. It is a small exercise bike but has many features to support your needs. The installation was quite simple and anyone can do it. The difficult part was looking at the zoomed in black and white instructions. I think it will be a lot simpler with color pictures and zoomed out a little bit, HD per se? Despite that fact, this little thing is amazing. What I love the most is the space saving technique that no other has. It can be folded and put away when not needed with ease.It has a mobile phone holder in the front which is useful in some cases. Listening music while biking or watch a favorite video. Oh yes, this bike operation is very quiet and that’s another feature that I love about it. I can exercise anytime I wanted. With my busy lifestyle, this bike is very much needed to keep my health in good condition without bothering anybody around. Surprisingly, I have kid and he sleep early in the PM so finding the right equipment was a challenge. Well, this solved it all. This is the bike I was looking for and very much in love with it.PS,I can do a lot more than just biking. Check out the video and pictures I’ve posted for further info.

I would have given it 5 stars...BUT!
I've been using this bike 1/2 hour every day for a little over a month now. Given my age (77) the workout it provides meets my expectations. My only complaint is that during this short period of time the 'Arm Resistance Bands/Cords' are becoming frayed/worn out (see attached photo). These bands are a excellent for a upper body workout and I will hate to lose this feature. I've tried to find replacement bands/cords online and at Amazon to no avail. One would think these bands would be readily available given that they are common to so many different brands of these type exercise bikes. Maybe someone can point me in the right direction to purchase replacement bands/cords.05/18/2020 - I upped the Star Rating I initially gave from 4 to 5 Star because of the "service after the sale" I received from the seller. I had some issues with broken and worn parts which were replaced by the seller at no charge including postage costs.....
