Sunny Folding Recumbent Bike

 (15 customer reviews)

Well, before purchasing this product, you have to know about your height. 5-03, that's my height. After assembling and ready to ride, I realized that my feet were not long enough to reach the pedals... I disassembled the back supporter and handles attached to it and shifted down the saddle and finally I made it! However the plastic part between the saddle and metal is getting damaged every time I use the product because my weight bears down on it. It's too troublesome to disassemble again and pack it up because it takes too much time so I decided to keep it. Anyway, when you buy this product, make sure you're tall enough to use this bicycle. One more thing:
I thought the span of the tension control is too easy for me; the highest number is like climbing the stairs at home- it is very mild. If you hope to excersise very hard, this model is not for you.
I like the design because it takes less space and is easy to assemble. Just again, measure your height and your legs.

I've been looking for an exercise bike within my budget, and finding one with a small footprint was even better for my crowded apartment. It took me about an hour to put it together (handlebars, seat, peddles), some of the bolts are in tricky places and the tools they provide aren't the best, but it got the job done. I wound up taking off the handles under the seat, because unless you're skinny, they poke into your legs with each peddle downstroke.

Pros: very quiet, doesn't take up much room at all, easy to move and yet sturdy, fairly comfortable up to at least a half hour of sitting, and adjustable seat height (four settings) is plenty high enough for me, something I was concerned about at 5' 11"

Cons: recumbent handles are too close to the seat for comfort.
Peddle resistance could be stronger although it's not so much an issue until I build up my leg strength, and it is fine for my needs (encouraging myself to exercise while watching TV, instead of...Read more

I can't believe how easy this bike was to put together. It's very quiet and makes absolutely NO noise what so ever. I wanted a bike that was small enough to put in the corner of my bedroom and it's a perfect fit for a small room. There are 2 different positions you can sit in and boy do you feel it in your legs. After I hit the 2nd mile on the bike my legs were burning. Great workout! I love this bike and have had it a few days now.
