Smooth Fitness SB4 Semi Recumbent Exercise Bike

I bought this recumbent bike from Smooth Fitness because I needed exercise that didn't include standing up. My husband bought a treadmill from Smooth several years ago and uses it every day. I use to use it till my knees gave me trouble so I decided to by the recumbant bike. I love it,it is easy to use and very comfortable positioned in fron of the tv. I use it almost every day, now that I am more comfortable with my knees I do lots of other things! I would recomend this bike from Smooth to everyone, young and old. Oh yes I am 67 years old and my husband is 70. Buy the Smooth you won't regret it.

Smooth Fitness SB4 Recumbent Bike

Package arrived undamaged. Curbside delivery, but driver carried it to garage.

Took a couple of evenings to assemble. Typical weakly written instructions. It is helpful to have some basic mechanical skills. No extra parts, but also all listed parts were there.

(16) step installation process. No issues except with a few steps.

Step 1 - Had to burnish out the two holes on the front stabilizer so bolts would clear (over-weld).

Step 7 - Says (3) sets of parts when it is really (4) sets of parts.

Step 8 - Seat Back Pivot Cover was already installed.

Step 9 - Be very careful tightening these screws to avoid stripping. Screws go into an unusual gripping bolt.

Step 12 - Says (4) sets of parts when it is really (6) sets of parts.

Seems to be a relatively solid and heavy-duty exercise bike that should hold up well. Time will time.
