Product Description

The Phoenix® MB608 Magnetic recumbent bike allows you to sit with your back supported during the exercise. Also, the heart is in a direct line to the legs, which increases the cardio efficiency of the bike over a standard exercise bike.

About Recumbent Exercise 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 at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout 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 a magazine while you work out.

The term recumbent literally means "lying down." Exercising in a recumbent or reclining position allows the user to have full ergonomic back support, without causing strain on the arms, neck and shoulders, all of which can be common effects of using an upright bicycle. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

Summary: ANNOYING 2008-06-05
Comment: BIKE CAME SHIPPED THROUGH AMAZON. JUST AS THE OTHER REVIEWS I HAD READ AND DISREGARDED, THE BIKE HAD BEEN DAMAGED IN SHIPPING. THE BOX WAS MUTILATED. I OPENED IT ANYWAY, HOPING IT WOULD BE FINE. THE BOX WAS SOAKED LIKE IT HAD BEEN DROPPED IN A PUDDLE AND IT CLEARLY STATED ON THE INSTRUCTIONS NOT TO GET WET. HAD A BIG HOLE THROUGH THE SIDE OF THE BOX. ANYWAY, OPENED BOX, TOOK EVERYTHING APART AND THE MAIN FRAME OF THE BIKE HAD A GIANT HOLE THROUGH IT. SO I HAD TO SHOVE EVERYTHING BACK IN THE BOX. THE ONLY GOOD THING ABOUT THIS EXPERIENCE? I DIDN'T HAVE TO DRAG THE 60LB+ PACKAGE TO UPS, THEY PICKED IT UP FOR ME. DON'T REALLY KNOW IF THE BIKE IS ANY GOOD, I GOT A REFUND. I CAN TELL YOU THAT I WON'T BE SHOPPING THROUGH AMAZON AGAIN ANY TIME SOON.

Summary: Little old lady 2008-06-04
Comment: I purchased the Phoenix 99608 to rehab my knee injured a few months ago. It's great! I couldn't ask for more features - they're easy to read and easy to set up. However, setting up the machine itself wasn't so easy. The holes on the seat back weren't aligned properly so it was a real task to install the back. The machine is quite heavy too, so if you can't lift a lot I'll be glad to send my 15 year old grandson over to set up your bike too! Operation was a bit noisy a first but some 409 strategically placed as directed in the instruction manual took care of that.

Summary: Good deal 2008-05-02
Comment: Very pleased. I use it whenever weather prevents me from walking outdoors. I am not a person who enjoys indoor exercise and have tried treadmill and eliptical machine but hated it and eventually stopped using them. This bike is quiet, can sit and watch TV or videos on my computer while I bike. I just put my laptop on a little table next to me. The foot straps are a good idea. If it folded up for storage it would be perfect, but it is not too difficult to push it to the side of the room.

Summary: Perfect for Beginners 2008-04-08
Comment: I am a beginner when it comes to any exercise machine. I've looked at tons of different bikes, but this one was great for the money. It took a little time to put together, but the instructions were very easy to follow. It works great! The calorie counter and such are not accurate but the timer and miles are right on the nose. It is very quiet and easy to use while watching tv or reading a book. I have found this bike to be the perfect purchase for beginners for the price. If I could change anything about this bike it would be the digital output. It is a little small and very basic. If you are just looking for a cycle to ride instead of trying to keep track of calories, this would be perfect for you!
