This cycle is not meant for fitness. If you need to keep your knees limber (after surgery, etc) this does the trick. It is to be used when you travel and don't have access to a gym. The downside of this cycle is that the feet are made of a hard plastic and slide, then flip over. I have overcome that by using a non-slip pad underneath. Some have suggested butting it up against a wall. It works best if you sit in a dining chair rather than a couch. But for the price, it is a great buy!
My husband has poor circulation and bad knees. He uses it almost every day and it's helping him to stay mobile. It is very convenient to store under the coffee table so he can watch t.v. while pedalling. Great purchase!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I'm really happy that I purchased the folding cycle. It's easy to use and there is no straining involved. I use it on the table for my arms and on the floor for my feet and legs. It easy to adjust for a easy or intense workout. It is also very light weight to move about.
