Review on ๐Ÿšด Murtisol Folding Exercise Bike: Compact & Foldable, Magnetic Resistance Control, Twister Plate, Arm Resistance Bands, Extra Large & Adjustable Seat, Heart Monitor - Perfect Home Exercise Bike in Three Colors by Omar Thorndike

Simple solution at a fraction of the cost, but use an app/alternative tracker

I originally purchased this in early 2020, and it has held up great in the 1.75 years I've used it. After extensive use ranging from every other day, to at least once per month, this cycle has been put to the test. My primary requirements before purchase: quiet, compact, easy to store and set up. This bike has delivered on these points perfectly. The only development is that, over the last few weeks, it has begun to squeak a little around the seat joint, but the pedals and associated parts are still whisper quiet at all resistance levels. Overall this is a great beginner option for those looking to do some seated cardio at home that isn't hard on your knees. However, I will say that the tracking digital console was absolutely useless. Granted, I did my best to figure it out without instructions, but many of the buttons were so cheap and flimsy, they only seemed to work half the time. I saved the batteries for more useful items, and just use an app on my phone to track pace, distance, and time (which is also more convenient for progress and habit tracking anyways). Lastly, this bike is very sturdy if you're ready to let loose and really push your cardio intensity. I lost almost 50lbs doing this exercise alone!
