Review on 🚴 ZenRoad Stationary Bike Trainer Stand: Magnetic Roller for Road and Mountain Bikes - 6-Speed Adjustment - Quiet Indoor Exercise by Andrew Krishna

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent option if you can't ride on the road

The exercise bike is easy to set up and has clear instructions. The design seems to be very versatile. For example, the bike used is an old DiamondBack bike from the early 2000's and it fits perfectly with some adjustments to the handlebars. Surprisingly quiet for such a cheap device. The knotted tire we use seems to make the most noise and I'm sure it will be relatively quiet once replaced. In terms of comfort, I appreciate the front tire carrier. Not only does it improve stability, but it raises the front a bit so the rider doesn't collapse completely. It seems a little wobbly, but seems secure and stable. My niece climbed on it like a jungle gym behind my back and it didn't fall off. The only downside is the need for zip ties or velcro straps to keep the cable to the difficulty switch from dangling loose. In fact, I think some parts are missing because there is no way to attach the switch to the steering wheel. I had to develop my own system to hold this thing in place. At the same time, only the neutral setting was sufficient for light training. It's also worth noting that the styrofoam packing material on the frame's lower legs has melted, leaving a rough white texture on the underside. All in all, this is a good exercise bike. This will get the job done and I hope your version includes all the parts.
