This self-powered bike can be placed in any room, and it does not require cords or outlets. The bike also features an oversized, dual accessory tray and built-in reading rack. It includes 19 pre-programmed and seven personalized workouts, and the five HeartSync workouts adjust resistance to keep you at your target heart rate, ensuring a safe, effective workout.
If the advanced programs are the brains of Lifecycle exercise bikes, then the Poly V belt-drive and self-powered alternator systems are the brawn.

About Life Fitness
What started as one man's pursuit to improve his own physical condition, eventually turned into a global fitness revolution. That man was Keene P. Dimick, the mastermind behind the legendary Lifecycle exercise bike. The story of Life Fitness began when two young entrepreneurs, Ray Wilson and Augie Nieto, saw the promise of Dr. Dimick’s invention. Even though it was slightly ahead of its time, they believed the Lifecycle exercise bike could help generations of athletes, trainers, exercisers, and people everywhere live happier, healthier, and more fulfilling lives.
Wilson and Nieto bought the rights to the Lifecycle bike from Dr. Dimick, perfected it, and sold it out of a motor home to health clubs across America. Despite the overwhelming odds and initial unpopularity of the Lifecycle exercise bike, the two passion-filled pioneers turned a two-man operation and a seemingly impossible vision into a prosperous reality. Along the way, they shaped the future of Life Fitness as well as the fitness industry, bringing cardiovascular training into the mainstream and helping ignite the health club boom.
Today, Life Fitness is the global leader in designing and manufacturing a full line of reliable, high quality fitness equipment for commercial and consumer use. It is the number one brand of fitness equipment in health clubs worldwide.

(Saint Louis, MO) - See all my reviews This review is from: Life Fitness Club Series Recumbent LifeCycle Exercise Bike (Sports) I used to workout at the local YMCA which had commercial Life Fitness recumbent bikes. The resistance goes from 0 - 20, I'd set it on 17 and cycle at 80rpm which worked out to 1000 calories/hour. Needless to say, I really worked it. So then I moved and decided to get a bike for home. I spent about $400 on a recumbent bike at Sears, set the resistance to the equivalent of half of what I'd set the Life Fitness bike to, and I burned it out in 2 weeks. I got a new one under warranty and burned it out in 2 weeks also. Cheap bikes don't hold up to the stress I put them under. Finally, a few years later now, I purchased the home model Life Fitness R9I. I've used it about 5 times a week for a year on resistance 15-16 and its holding up great. If you want to seriously workout on a recumbent bike, this one is up to the challenge. It also supports a larger frame. I'm 6'5 and I'm one notch away from the back with my legs able to fully stretch out with each step. I'd guess this could...Read more 2 of 3 people found the following review helpful: By Jim "Electronics Engineer" (Warner Robins, Georgia) - See all my reviews This review is from: Life Fitness Club Series Recumbent LifeCycle Exercise Bike (Sports) I purchased a model 2050 last summer - and it was delivered and setup by a Wash DC area (professional) vendor. The fact that I paid extra for the "infinitely adjustable seat" model may have been a mistake. It took a significant amount of time to resolve seat-slipping problems with the manufacturer, as the seat simply would not stay in place and moved forward and backwards even on the lowest resistance setting. It took a couple of mailings and e-mails with the manufacturer to resolve and get a replacement part. However, once the replacement part arrived the unit worked great!! However, these sorts of problems should not be seen on such an expensive unit. I also got the top of the line electronics package for about $50 extra - which is excellent and well worth the additional price. The unit is relatively heavy and therefore stable, attactive and very comfortable to use. If you are not mechanically inclined pay the delivery and setup fee to avoid any headaches. That said the...Read more |
