Very sturdy - easy assemble. The laptop desk moves for easy access. Wish it had a bigger work area for a detachable keyboard and mouse. Takes a little more coordination that I thought. The seat gets a little uncomfortable after a few hours.
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.
I recently had total knee replacement surgery and developed complications with scar tissue build-up on the patella tendon, femur, and tibia. After undergoing a post-op knee manipulation to break up the scar tissue, I bought the Wirk cycle to use to keep my knee loose and to use it in the rehabilitation process. My left knee was replaced two years ago and my right hip is being considered fr replacement. This bike is wonderful in the rehab stage in keeping me loose, redeveloping the muscle strength in my legs and hips, and overall health as a whole. In addition, it has helped in improving my cardiovascular health and in weight loss. I have lost over 30 pounds since my surgery and kept it off.
Lots to love about this cycle. First, it's super easy to assemble. Second, it's super quiet! The quietest exercise machine I have. Third, very lightweight, so easily portable. I move it where I want it. Finally, it's really flexible, so it's great for multiple user. Two cons, though: 1) the seat is super hard! Too hard for my ample tushy, so I have to use a pillow. And 2) if you use a laptop, there is no room to use the cupholder. It does fit if you use a tablet, however.
This is a well designed and comfortable work/exercise cycle. The concept is brilliant, it is fairly easy to assemble, and is well made. My only - and big - complaint is that the resistance knob arrears to be for show only as cranking it as far + or - seems to make no difference in the resistance offered.
This a great unit. It is light weight and moves around easily. Like most bikes, the seat is never as comfortable as it could be especially for long periods of time but over all this is a great exercise bike and desk top.
This bike is exactly what I was looking for. It is compact, easy to use and the price is right. It has all the amenities one could wish for from the comfortable seat and back support to the attached desk with all it's different functions. I especially like the 2 sets of handle bars so I can change positions while exercising. My back is thankful for that.
