The unit is very stable and also works quietly and smoothly.
Only issue - would like seat to be able to adjust one notch higher. Would also have liked a spot to hold phone or small tablet.
Excellent bike for the price and better than expected. I wanted affordable and portable and this works great.
This is easy to put together and sturdy. I use it regularly and it’s a good compact size for a small apartment. The only flaw is that the seat, even on the lowest setting, is too high. You definitely have to wear the proper shoes. I even bought platform sneakers to wear just so my legs weren’t stretching to reach the pedals.
Original day 1 review starts here:
TL;DR: Good bike for the price, can't speak on durability, whisper quiet, meh seat, I'd recommend it based on ease of assembly/first ride on the bike.
I know what you're thinking, "Day one? I'm here to see if it'll last", and I totally get that, I'm just not able to give you that kind of a review yet. I will however update when I've had it for longer and have logged some more time with it, promise. Even if the $135 I spent on it wouldn't hurt my feelings too much if it broke within a year, I'd still be annoyed enough that it broke within a year that I'd have to tell someone other than my wife.
So, day one reactions to this machine. The box is labeled "heavy" and "team lift" but...take that for what you will since the box says Net Wt 31.68 lbs/Gr Wt 36.96 lbs, just, trying to be informative. The instructions also say you should use "two or more people (to) assemble this machine to avoid possible injury", again, take that for what you will. I assembled this machine by myself in roughly 40 minutes, with the most time spent unpacking it and threading the left pedal since it was being a punk (there's always one piece when you're assembling something). Assembly, even if you have little to no experience in assembling things, is really about as easy as it gets since the machine only has: the body, front stabilizer, rear stabilizer, seat post, seat, pedals, strap for pedals, and handlebars/display. Attach the stabilizers (feet) to the body, seat post where it looks like the seat goes, seat on the post, handlebars where they look like they should go, and pedals where they look like they should go, easy breezy.
Now, I wouldn't be posting a review if assembling it was all I did, that would be silly. Instead, I just took it for a 21 minute ride while watching an episode of "Darkwing Duck" so I could test it out. Now, this is the part of the review where I tell you a little bit about myself. I am 5'-11" (short legs) and weigh 225 lbs, I have a basement gym where I have a 6 day workout schedule which incorporates lifting, elliptical (more expensive than this bike), walking/jogging, and (kick)boxing. This is NOT my primary and/or only method of exercise, I bought this to supplement everything else since I am a remote worker and if I had a pedometer, my steps per day would be like...50. I also live in a state (NE) which has all four seasons so going outside for an afternoon walk all the time can be, annoying, like when it's 20 with 25mph winds or when it's 90 with 25 mph winds. I wanted something I could use to get some relaxed cardio in while watching TV and the wife also wanted it so, to the cart it went.
Now, for the performance part. I took it on a 21 minute ride and tested all of the resistance levels with 8 being the highest but....an 8 on this bike is more like a, 3 or 4 on a pricier bike, while a 1 is like riding downhill. I chose to chill at level 5 for a bit and then finish at level 4 for the last 8 or so minutes, a very relaxed resistance level for me since I'm a bit tired from my earlier exercising. The movement felt a bit jerky at first but it loosened up as the ride went on, and the bike is whisper quiet, it didn't make any noise...at all. I tested going fast (for me, got to 20+ on its Speed rating) and the bike still didn't make any noise, so, that's pretty sweet. Note to the reader here: our house is half tile/half carpet and I had the bike on the stone tile, not good old slippery linoleum tile (more prevalent in TX and other Southern states...so if you plan to put this on linoleum tile then take my review for what you will).
This bike also has no power cord and the display is powered by two AAA batteries (included). The display can tell you Speed, Distance, Time, and "Calories" (in quotes cuz, c'mon, that thing's not accurate, this machine doesn't know anything about you/your body composition so take this number with a truckload of salt). There is also a display setting called ODO which is your Odometer, which means it should track all of your workout miles logged until it gets to 9999, then it resets (based on the instructions). If you are first starting your fitness journey then I suppose this is a good way to set milestones for yourself and if you are first starting your fitness journey with this bike, I wish you the best of luck on your journey. The other option on the display is Scan, in which it will just go through all of the settings, just for fun. You can also choose to use the bike without the batteries since the resistance settings are manual, no problem.
Now, did this product with its 6,755 ratings really need my review? Absolutely not, but, just in case you're sorting reviews by "Newest" then, hello. I do that too so, yeah, don't worry, I got you. Random note: the instructions and several reviewers say the nuts/bolts are already supposed to be in the machine but, yeah, mine were not, they were separate except the screws used to attach the seat.
SPEAKING OF THE SEAT...this is where the 5 star became a 4. This seat, remember I was only on it for 21 minutes, is..........exactly what you'd expect from a budget bike. I can't criticize it TOO much (it's a budget priced bike) but I will more than likely be spending a little bit extra to get a seat cushion which would raise it up to about a $160 bike, so, food for thought.
However, I've only had it a short while and can't vouch for how long the parts will last--that is still to be determined. It seems well built, but not heavy-duty like a bike at the gym, so I wouldn't stand on the pedals, which would probably put too much force on the mechanism and might upset the center of gravity. The seat post flexes slightly in use at my weight (165 lbs), but seems sound. It is extremely quiet and doesn't even vibrate the floor when using it.
There is no pulse monitor nor recumbent seat, but I have good balance and can kind of sit upright to relax the neck if I don't want to lean on the handlebars.
I ordered the NS-652 model since I am 5' 10" male with medium-length legs, and it extends high enough for full leg extension, with room to spare, so I would expect that it would provide full leg extension for someone 5' 11", too. Some people don't prefer or want that much extension, so it might also work for someone 6' or taller if they like their legs a little bent. Knees might get close to the handlebars for taller people, but my knees have a lot of space. For much shorter people, Marcy has a smaller NS-654 model that might be more suitable.
I was worried about some of the reviews mentioning that the seat is hard, but it's just dense foam like what you might have a gym, not hard like a board, with a seam around the back that is comfortable enough for me, but stationary gel/foam bike seat covers are available and not too expensive if that is a concern, which also has the nice benefit of increasing seat height another inch or so, too. Just make sure you get one big enough to fit the dimensions of the seat.
I am a masters runner (do occasional races) and have a fitness bike for outdoor cross-training, but I'm using this stationary bike for indoor recovery of a sprained ankle, and the resistance level 8 does seem to provide about the same resistance level that I use on stationary bikes at the gym for a casual cardio workout, but I'm not a cyclist nor triathlete. Levels 1-8 do provide noticeably different resistance which is nice, since I can dial it down until my ankle heals. Sometimes I may just want to increase circulation, not necessarily get a cardio workout, and I can just hop on and off, doing 5-minute sessions throughout the day.
The frame is well built, well-painted, well-packed with good instructions, comes with wrenches, and was easy to assemble (about an hour). I had to be careful threading in the 4 bolts that mount the handlebar assembly to make sure they weren't cross-threaded and stripped, but I took my time to hand-screw them in first to get them started and they were fine. And I had to take some time to make sure I got the correct orientation on the pedal safety straps by looking at various pictures before attaching.
The photos don't do it justice. The one I received looks better in person than in the photo since it has a slightly darker shade of white and the seat is black only (no light patch on the back). The front part of the frame with dual bars is also thinner and looks better in person, something hard to tell in the side-view photos. It has a neat little flywheel that you can see spinning through the translucent housing. The LCD panel is spartan but seems to work well and changes between a scanning mode where it rotates through the speed, time, distance, calories, odometer, or you can press the button to stay on just one of them. It will automatically turn on and off when you pedal and stop pedaling, but you need to supply it with two AAA batteries which are not included.
It also stands upright on its own when folded, a nice feature, and you can just fold it and stand it in a corner--no need to lean it against a wall, and it looks nice. It doesn't have wheels but is light enough for me to just lift and carry to where I want to put it, but it might be a little heavy for an old or frail person to lift, and I do have to lift my leg over knee height to get on on the seat, something to keep in mind if it's for someone lacking mobility. Folding and unfolding it is quick as long as I look to see when the holes line up for the safety pin as I fold the frame.

Reviewed in Mexico on January 24, 2023
I bought this because the reviews said it was very quiet (neighbours!). It is whisper quiet - so much so that I can hardly hear it. The tension at the top is just enough for me (senior woman) and the height adjustment is great. I'm 5' 1" with short legs, and this fits perfectly for cycling - I have it at the lowest seat setting. It is hard to climb over the centre to mount - (short people problems) but once I'm settled it's just fine. Very stable as well. You *can* spin, but it would be difficult - it's really not designed for that. My legs do stretch out fully when cycling, so someone with a shorter inseam (I'm 28") may have a problem cycling. The seat is ok - but then all bicycle seats are ok. It's not replaceable.
All in all, I'm very pleased with this purchase. The quality is good, nicely machined parts, no difficult or stripped threads or screws, and it looks nice.
Edited to add: I've been using this bike for a while now, and love it more than when I first got it. So comfortable, and gives me a pretty good cardio workout, and the seat is quite comfortable now I'm used to it. Great bike!
We are well into the senior category, but do keep fit as best we can on a regular basis.
this bike is perfect for us. We have the seat at the highest level so that our legs can stretch out when pedal at the bottom. i am 5ft.5inch; husband is 5 ft 10-11.
getting on the bike seat might be a bit difficult for some as the mount is quite high, and getting ones leg over the cross bar might be difficult for some, but this should not dissuade anyone from purchasing and using this bike.
perhaps a stool nearby would help some to get onto the seat.
the bike is very stable, we were able to put it together easily with the instructions in about 30-45 minutes.
it has very minimal readings, , distance, timing, etc. No pulse reading, but we do have fitbits if we need to know the pulse readings.
if you are trying to rehabilitate knees, hips, back etc, this will be a good asset to your home, with minimal floor space.
we get a good workout for conditioning and cardio and can keep our legs, knees and hips gaining strength each day instead of losing strength.
i recommend this bike . it is very well made , size is easy to fit into small spaces. very quiet
