Well made but some practical limitations
on May 12, 2020
Posted by: David

Although well made and sturdy there are some issues:
1. It slips forward on just about any surface. I anticipated that this might happen and planned to anchor it to front legs of chair.
2. The resistance T handle is extremely hard to turn and I was never able to generate sufficient resistance (may be just a defect in my unit)
3. The show stopper for me is the limited range of motion. Pedal cranks are only 4" radius. I have 30" inseam and no way can I fully extend leg to get the knee rehabilitation I am looking for.
However if you can anchor unit some way to prevent slipping and your legs are short enough so that range of motion isn't an issue, it may be suitable and certainly the price is right.

Stamina Folding Cycle

I bought this product for my husband, who recently had a knee replacement, as part of his therapy program. He uses it every day and it has been extremely helpful in his rehab. We have a small hom plus a small budget, making the larger stationary bikes impractical. This one has worked perfectly for our needs!
I would recommend this to a friend!

So disappointed

I was so excited to get this item and use it while I was in my online meetings but alas I cannot. It was basically already assembled when it arrived, which is the one star. But the "hardest" that I could make the pedals go was nowhere near any type of work out. It was extremely jerky for around 5 minutes until the metals started heating up and then things went a bit more smoothly. Yes, you read that right, it gets so hot from the friction. I could not get it to sit still, I put it up against a table and also onto a yoga mat. I tried several things for about 2 hours (my patience has a limit) and I am returning it tomorrow.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
