About Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

3 out of 5 stars Minimal Bike, Maximum Resistance Too Low   November 18, 2008
I've owned a number of exercise bikes over the past 20 years. All the bikes I have owned during the past 12 years have had much more advanced consoles than the Marcy bike - for example, they allowed you to set a timer, had pulse-reading fuctions (even the real cheap ones under $200), etc. I had no problem assembling the bike (or disassembling it for return for that matter). The main reason I returned the bike was the low maximum resistance offered.

This is a pretty basic bike. If you are just beginning, I'm sure this bike will be fine for awhile.



1 out of 5 stars not so cheap rubbish   October 25, 2008
A lesson learned: cheap is the new expensive... it lasted less than a week before one of the pedals got stuck and had to be hammered out, damaging the screw thread in the process.... now I am left with the quandry.... just throw the whole thing in the dumpster where it belongs or try to get a spare part and fix it....


4 out of 5 stars Basic Cycle Works Just Fine   October 21, 2008
I have had my Marcy Mag Cycle for about 2 months now. It works just fine for a half hour to hour workout watching TV. It is quite impressive for the price - there are others costing double, triple, even more. Easy enough to assemble; there are only about ten parts and it is obvious how they all fit (except maybe the cable which takes a minute or so to understand). Quite sturdy and durable for an adult male, but easy to port around front set of wheels. The screen gives basic time, pace, miles, and calories, but it isn't very backlit. You can adjust the tension, but many of the lower tension levels all seem about the same to me. If you want a basic unit, this one is it, and the price is great.


4 out of 5 stars Great workout for a small bike   August 16, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is a great little stationary bike. It is easy to assemble except the foot peddles are hard to screw on, the handle bars and seat are easily adjusted. Gives a great work out...the tension range is just right for my needs, and the size is perfect for small spaces. It is light enough that it can be moved from one place to another without any problem. I gave this 4 stars rather than 5 because the seat is uncomfortable, wish it had better padding and could be tilted up or down. There is not a water bottle holder...not that this is a big deal but I drink alotof H2O when I workout. If you want a great stationary bike...for the money this is it.


5 out of 5 stars Marcy PL 432`` Upright   July 30, 2008
The reason I purchased the Marcy Upright is due to the fact that I have flat feet and my podiatrist suggested that I purchase a stationary bike. It was reasonable in price and the reviews that I read were positive. It arrived intacted and no box damage. My husband put it together and it took him about 2 hours.It supports my weight and almost no sound while pedaling. I like the look and most of all it is during the job.

Thanks for reading my review
