Review on ADVENOR Folding Magnetic Exercise Bike With Arm Resistance Bands And Backrest For Comfortable Home Fitness by Brian Hrdlicka

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Tension control doesn’t impact calorie counter

Easy to assemble, seat adjustment screw tends to get noisy sometimes creaking loudly after an hour of use (requires some WD-40), pulse monitor is wonky jumping all over the place but gives you a good estimate. Doesn’t fold up very compactly but it’s nice it does. Seat is good quality (not a pain in the ass). Back rest doesn’t really adjust (it just folds down) but I shove a pillow or two behind my back to get it where I want. Seat height is an issue, I’m 5’8” (read: manlet) and on the highest height setting I still cannot fully extend my legs how you properly should. I compensate by adding pillows under my butt but its not ideal. The tabs on the Center console are a nice feature to rest your phone when biking but the left tab on mine is very loose on the verge of snapping off (not a deal breaker). Biggest gripe is the tension control doesn’t register with the calorie counting tool, so you can be cruising on an easy level and burn just as much (or little) if you were at a higher tension level! I estimate it’s over estimating the calories you burn by at least 50-60%, making it pretty much worthless. That being said, I’ve been using it religiously for the past 6 months and it’s done the job rendering my current wardrobe useless.
