Q: How much assembly is required?
A: Not that much. The base is one set piece and you just put the peddles on, legs on, and seat and handle bar/controls
Q: I am 5 feet 4.75 inches tall, do you think I will need to lean forward to hold the handle bars?
A: No, my wife is 5 foot 4 and does not need to. Nice and quiet ride.
Q: Can you coast on this bike?
A: No. Like every indoor bike, there is resistance on the wheel in addition to the fact that there is no physical momentum as there is when riding a moving bike - so naturally the wheel will slow down very fast to a stop and will not coast for more than a few seconds.
Q: Can I pick up at store already assembled? Charge for assembling?
A: Best Buy only offers assembly with delivery which is $200. I'd like to emphasize that this is EXTREMELY easy to assemble. It does not require any particular degree of mechanical aptitude.
Q: Can you use it without electricity
A: You can pedal it without electricity but you won't be able to adjust the resistance or anything else. You need electricity to get a proper workout.
Q: Is it easy to move from around
A: Very easy. It has wheels on one end.
Q: I am 5ft tall. Would I have to lean forward very much?
A: My wife is 5'3" and is very comfortable when working out. The 3" difference should be no problem.
A: It should not swivel. It is doing same thing with mine too even after tightening screws. Which is why I gave it 4 star. Maybe take the seat out, wrap one layer of black tape to provide some roughness and then tighten screws again could resolve the issue. I have not tried yet but will try some day. Hope it helps.
