    Constantly use this. Functions smoothly. Has limited function without Jrny subscription, but is great for working out without the cost of a Peloton

    Great bike and a fun workout! I'm glad it comes with the JRNY trial. It makes the "rides" so much more enjoyable and it's something I will definitely be purchasing after the 1 year trial is up!

    Love, love, love. Excellent workout for all members of the family, after adding the JRNY membership we now have access to all the programs/ workouts. The lean mode makes this a more dynamic bike than regular stationary bikes. Seat is a little hard, we added a gel seat cover.

    Bike is a lot of fun! The tilt feature is a great differentiation against more expensive bikes. The video rides are fun, and the 1-year Bowflex membership seems to have some good features (though I hope they keep adding tracks and classes). The only negative is periodically (maybe once every couple days), the video feed goes black while riding, but it hasn’t happened a lot so I’m not sure if it is just getting jostled during an intense ride. It’s great fun, and the envy of my spin class friends!!

    Of all the stationary bikes I looked at this is the only one that allowed you to "lean" in the direction of turn, which greatly adds to the feeling of 'reality.' It feels solid and rides smoothly. I like the JRNY program, esp. being able to tune in exogenous programming such as YOUTube. The bike was simple to set up, and the few areas I had trouble with I was helped by courteous and efficient staff at Bowflex. I am extremely happy with this bike.

    I really enjoy this bike, it's quiet and sturdy with great adjustments for resistance. I am having issues with the tablet randomly restarting itself mid-workout and the resistance meter not registering correctly at end of workout but customer service has been responsive and is sending new parts out. The JRNY app needs work but you're able to offer suggestions and get feedback from support. The workouts are great and the streaming options are really fun to have. I think the adaptive workouts have gotten to know my fitness level very well and challenge me everyday.

    The Velocore is built solid and is pretty. The ride is smooth and quiet. Easy to navigate the journey app it came with a year free and I love the features it has. The lean is difficult to hold and is not as far of a lean as I thought it would be but I still like the feel of the ride that isn’t stationary. The resistance is decent I can’t really tell there are 100 levels though but you still get a good work out. Overall the bike is a lot of fun which makes me want to workout more.

    So i was trying to choose betweem this and a peloton and Best Buy having a sell on this one won. although i thought the side to side movement was a little gimmicky i have really enjoyed it. Just had to get used to it and it makes the workout more interesting. I REALLY like that you can watch apps like netflix and etc. which you can’t do with iFit. Got my mom to get on and try it so she has something to keep her mind off the actual exercising.

    Love the bike. Best Buy sent a couple of men to set it up, and they showed up when they said they would, hauled off my old elliptical, and set this new one up. Very professional. A few weeks later, there was a small noise coming from the bike. I called Bowflex and within 15 minutes had tightened some bolts on the flywheel, and all was good. I really like the bike a lot. While I don't always use the "lean", it does make it unique and I a bit more realistic. I did sign up to the workouts and have enjoyed them. I can wholeheartedly recommend this bike.

    The bike works very well. It is quiet. The speaker quality is good. The graphics on the screen are good. The adaptive programs are working well and adjust to my level of performance. The lean option works very well. The resistance control is not very sensitive nor consistent. It takes some adjustment to get the resistance level that you desire. That is the only improvement comment I would make.

    I have really enjoyed using this bike. The ability to "turn" the bike and lean makes for a more natural movement for me. I like the big screen and the video guides. The bike is very heavy. If you are not up to heavy lifting, I recommend delivery. Additionally, putting the bike together is semi complicated and heavy. You should be ready for that and have some help or pay to have it built. I did it myself but i have a lot of experience with building. I would buy this again, i am very pleased.
