It’s a great exercise bike...comfortable, easy to ride, easy to adjust, and easy to set. It’s also easy to exercise and read, or work, play games, watch TV, or whatever at the same time! And it was a very reasonable price!

I have a bakers cyst on the back of my knee. Using a treadmill made it worse. It was easy to put together. Works great my knee has gotten better every day.

I BROUGHT THIS A MONTH AGO AND I COULDN'T BE MORE THAN HAPPY WITH IT. ALTHOUGH IT WAS LIKE PUTTING TOGETHER AN IKEA FURNNITURE, IT WAS WELL WORTH IT IN THE END.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great machine. Easy to put together. Perfect footprint for our small exercise room. Very quiet operation. The laptop board is perfect to work away while pedalling away.

I bought this about a month ago to help me with my activity level since I sit all day. And since receiving it, I find myself using at night to watch tv or even when I am just lounging around, I will hop on it.

Love this bike! Any one that says the seat is too close to the desk just needs to push the lever on the bottom right side of the bike. Additionally the three large washers are attached to the seat. My seat came damaged due to shipping. I contacted Stamina customer service and they shipped me a new seat 2 day priority mail. Very happy with this product and Stamina customer service!

I took extreme care putting the pedals on because they were difficult to line up just right. Even though I made several attempts to make sure it was in line and going in just right before I went too far, the right foot pedal was stripped. I didn't catch this right away and pedaled on it just slightly skewed and removed it when I was noticing a wobbliness and clicking. The pedal would not go back in and there was a noticable amount of metal thread shards. While it did work, the mechanics of the bike made me feel like I was on a circa-1960's excercise bike. The kind where you can see the tension strap around the outside of the wheel and each stride is jerky and certainly not smooth. The 3rd issue is that I was sent an incorrect sized bolt. The packaging was supposed to have four size 60 long bolts for the feet to attach and there were only 3. Looks like a packaging error. This all was enough to make me disassemble and return. I'm going to pay a little more to get better quality.

A solid, well-designed product for those like me who want to exercise while working on their computer, instead of sitting down all day. Can also be used while reading a book or watching TV. A great feature is that you can choose to use the device as a stand-up desk. Quiet and well-balanced, the bike is also quite affordable.

I bought this a couple of months ago and when it first went together it was great. Then the tension adjustment stopped working. It is so tight I can barely push the pedals. Tried everything and nothing worked- including calling Wirk for help. I donated it to Goodwill and will be buying better quality- you get what you pay for here and it is crap.

I bought this bike based on all the positive reviews, including from people who were about my height. The bike desk is a brilliant idea. However, this one has a number of design flaws and is NOT for short people. I am 5'4" and have an inseam of 31". The seat was a wee bit too high in the lowest setting. I took out the knob and dropped it down to the frame -- gained an inch or so. While I can reach the pedals, the seat was the most uncomfortable thing I have EVER sat on in my entire life. It's so HARD, and the wide shape cuts right under the thigh. After 20 minutes my rear end was in agony. My options were a) try to get all the pieces back in the box to return (ha), b) try to sell it (never get my money back), c) replace the seat. Not sure another product would be any better, I decided to try to build a replacement. Unfortunately, the frame design is such that you can't just drop another bike seat in it; there is no hollow pipe but a triangular metal platform through which go integrated bolts in the seat. There followed 3 weeks of work: paper pattern, cardboard pattern, scrap wood pattern, jigsawing plywood replacement, cutting foam and fabric, testing, re-cutting, drilling, screwing, re-positioning. I finally have a seat-shaped piece of plywood with 3 layers of packing foam and 3 layers of bedding foam over it, covered with fabric stapled on. I had the tools to do this; many might not. I have something usable now. Other problems: the backrest is not adjustable and encourages a rounded lower back -- leaning way back -- with no lumbar support. You can't tighten the bolt -- it just spins around -- so there is only one position. I stuck a pillow over it and a wooden shim in the hinge. The cup-holder is UNDER a laptop if you use one. Why on earth isn't it in a usable place on the side? The counter randomly zeroes itself in the middle of a ride! It has happened several times. The little bit of static caused by pulling a fuzzy sweater off the backrest is enough to zero the ENTIRE display, odometer and all. I replicated this several times once I found out what happened. After only 15 uses, the monitor glitched and would not come out of "scan" mode, nor would it turn off; still blinking away after half an hour idle. I had to take the batteries out to get it to shut off -- odometer back to zero again. On the plus side, it was very easy to assemble, pedaling is very smooth, and it's so quiet I can barely hear it over my laptop cooling pad. The adjustable distance to the desk is nice. This is a great idea, and something I very much need. I did not need all the extra work. It's not the kind of product one should buy without trying it out first -- but where are you going to do that? If you are tall, larger than me, and, um, better padded on your rear, you may not have these issues. I'm keeping it, because I'm not sure competing products will be any better. The product needs a better seat, an adjustable backrest, and a usable cupholder. Oh, and a reliable monitor. I really want to like this thing, but I'm giving it 2 stars because the customer shouldn't have to do that much work to make it usable.
