Great for a short beginner!

So first let preface my experience/review with I am about 75lbs over weight (100lbs if you go by the charts for height) but still WELL under the weight limit listed, and have not consistently worked out in 10 years and never have ridden a spin bike nor taken a spin class. So I have nothing to compare this to.I researched many of the spin bikes on Best Buy as I didn’t want to pay top dollar for one of the premium bikes in the event that I absolutely hated riding it.It’s been about a month and I have abut 11 rides in (it would have been more but I literally caught Covid the day after it was delivered). Having never been properly instructed at an in person spin class on form and bike set up, I’ve been messing around with the adjustments and finally found the perfect placement for seat height and handlebars.Well Yesterday I noticed that it started clicking while I was pedaling. It was really distracting and made me feel like I was Riding a piece of trash. I checked/tightened all of the bolts. Made sure the bike was sitting level and adjusted feet accordingly and it was still clicking. So today I emailed the Advenor customer service with my issue and they replied very quickly! Like within the hour. They asked me to send a video so I did. Then they again promptly replied with a solution. They said to tighten the bolts on the pedals. So I did, and they were in fact pretty loose. So I hopped on and gave it another try. Still, I hear a clicking. welp! It wasn’t the pedals after all. I had adjusted the height of the seat and didn’t tighten the lever well enough. So I tightened that as best as I could and Voila! Bike is completely silent again! Victory!Anyways. I live in a small apartment and move the bike nearly DAILY from its "storage” location to the middle of the living room to ride along with a class I steam on my tv. The constant moving is BOUND to cause bolts etc to wiggle so I think Maybe once a week to maintain the quietness, bolt-tightness checks will have to be routine.I have fallen in love with riding and this bike, IMO, is perfect, at least for someone like me. I will Try to update this post in the future if something else happens or if it remains to be in great condition after many more rides.
