Bought this recumbent to first assist in the rehab of a hip which was replaced last week with plans to use it when the weather outside isn't great for bike riding using my recumbent. So, my current needs are to simply increase the range of motion of my hip. It is frustrating that when I start to pedal, the programs have the resistance start above level one and have to be lowered. That hurts. Another annoyance is that the age default is 30. I am 71 and can't find a way to set my age as a default, so the heart rate goal is appropriate.
This bike is very high quality and exceeds my expectations. Easy to assemble and even easier to use it's numerous features. Best investment I've made for myself and my health in a long time!
We have had a regular Sunny bike for about 8 years now and have loved it!! But my husband now has Parkinson's disease which is affecting his legs most of all. So a recumbent bike is necessary for him to keep riding. The fact that he can easily step in front of the seat without having to hike his leg over the machine to straddle the seat is a game changer for him. I chose this model partly for that reason. I chose Sunny because the quality of my original bike was great, and a few years ago when I had a bearing wear out, it was easy to get a replacement and YouTube videos enabled us to do the maintenance on it ourselves, even as 70-year olds! I am also loving the World Tour tracks and the fact that with the SunnyFit app it can automatically change resistance as you ride if you want it to do that. You can't beat the price of these bikes for the quality!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Well made and not difficult to put together. Bought this bike for my wife to rehab a pretty bad fractured tibia. This bike kept the weight off her leg allowing her to build up strength and achieve full extension. We both use this to workout and fight off Father Time. We are both in our 60's and recommend not only this model but the people who have helped us at Sunny Support are super professional and nice to work with.
