Customers often highlight the U616 Upright Exercise Bike's ease of assembly, affordability, and quiet operation. Many appreciate how simple it is to put together, making it a convenient choice for home workouts. The bike's smooth ride is also praised, ensuring a comfortable workout experience. However, some users have expressed concerns about the hardness of the seat, suggesting that a more comfortable seat may be necessary for extended use.
I am able to get a great, sweaty cardio workout in my own studio apt without needing to pay for a gym membership or take a long bus journey. I was thankful for the measurements provided in the specs because I wanted an exercise bike that could be stored in my coat closet in between uses. I knew it would fit and it does perfectly. The resistance levels are more than enough and it changes quickly when you want. I rarely go up to a level 12, mostly stay around 7 and 9. Also I don’t do more than 20 minutes since I also incorporate body weight circuits and some dumbbell exercises as well. Great addition and perfect for my needs. It’s not the fanciest machine, but it is still effective and better than other more basic bike machines. I have been using it at least every other day with no issues, the seat doesn’t really bother me that much to feel like I need a better seat cushion, maybe bc I already have cushion? Lol also I don’t use any of the programs, I just plug it in, and press QuickStart and then I werk out right away. I put it all together with a few challenges but I completed it with the help of the instructions provided. The hardest part was connecting the long neck to the base but it is very helpful with a partner to help hold it while I connected the wires and added the screws (oh you’ll see).

Was easy to assemble for me one person, took me under an hour. Feels sturdy and I like the pre programmed modes.

Great machine especially for the price. Easy to use and setup. No subscriptions required to operate like most bikes now.
