    I really like the quality and ease of use with this spin bike. I compared it to another very popular brand. Having the 360 degree rotating screen to do off bike exercises like yoga, built in fan and not having to buy special shoes made it a perfect choice for me. I am able to program my own rides using google maps, it’s fun to ride to a friends house and seeing all the familiar scenery. Having the instructors controlling the resistance and incline ( yes it inclines up or down during your ride) was a plus! No turning a knob!

    Definitely the workout you're looking for.... whether it be a strenuous spin class or a scenic tour of Argentina. The automatic resistance, and incline and decline to simulate hills is awesome. You can even trek through your own neighborhood without leaving your house. I chose this over the Peleton due to the addituonal features.

    This bike is so quiet! I love this bike for the early am workouts so I don’t have to worry about waking anyone else up in the house. It is completely quiet. Having the ifit used with it is so much fun so all I have to do is workout without having to worry about changing the resistance or settings. It takes any guess work out of the workout so your sure to get a great workout with so many options to make it easier or more challenging. Very good quality !!! Cost is more then most bikes but you get your value out of it and it’s absolutely worth the price! We actually bought two so we don’t have to adjust the settings when me or my husband use it. We just get on and go.

    After we researched bikes, including the Peloton, we decided to go with this bike for a few reasons. We liked the idea of the instructor lead bike rides that took place out on the road, on trails, etc. You could see the instructor on a bike "in front of you", like you would if you were out on an actual ride. We also liked that the iFit instructor could adjust your tension and incline/decline without having to do it ourselves. And lastly, we liked the option of using a set of pedals and our shoes we already had on hand so we could clip in. Some reviews mention how loud it is when the incline/decline changes, but for us, it's not bad at all. So far we love it. The swivel screen is nice. It's not ideal on carpet with padding underneath and it does wobble slightly, especially when out of the saddle. We intend to remove the carpet and put in a rubber floor, so that we don't have that problem and have a proper gym floor for our workout room. No regrets with this purchase so far.

    Best purchase I’ve ever made! This bike is phenomenal and I get the best workouts. Since the gyms are closed I have lost my chance to exercise. This bike has helped me get my strength back and my endurance. I switched the bike seat because it was too padded, but other than that I have not encountered any problems. I’ve had it for one month and it’s been only great! Being purchased here was a way better option than through their website.

    Love this bike !! Wasn't sure if it would live up to my expectations after reading some of the reviews but it has. Lots of great choices in rides on I Fit. The cycle itself is very solid and really mimics being on my road bike while enjoying the comforts of riding indoors and out of the heat. Will be changing the pedals since I am conditioned to riding clipped in. Looking forward to purchasing a treadmill now to take advantage of the awesome hikes offered on I Fit.

    The real negative here is the software instructions and support. Sadly Bluetooth is also missing. Would be GREAT IF the bike actually came with Bluetooth. No idea why, but it’s totally missing from the bike. I thought others didn’t know how to activate it. But Nope. It really is missing. The memory or WiFi are also undersized for the bike. It lags in its response to touch commands. It’s not a little lag. It’s a lag that reminds me of a 1995 gateway computer. Spent 40 minutes assembling the bike. Spent 90 minutes trying to figure out the software to pair the iPhone app via Bluetooth. IFit leaves a lot to be desired. Their online tech instructions ad and support do not match the real step by step software experience. All that said, the outdoor bike tours really do seem amazing. You just have to be patient enough to sift through IFIT to load the tour.

    This exercise bike is an investment in my well being. The variety of exercises are great. The 24” monitor does lag a bit when scrolling, but that shouldn’t be a deal breaker. It’s great for when I can’t make it to the gym. #WELLBEING

    Multiple Issues

    I have a few issues with the bike so far. The screen was delivered missing the "o" in the word NordicTrack which is just poor quality conrol. Even though every bolt is tight on the bike it still has some wiggle when standing up and leaning forward with the more intense workouts. The worst part is during 3 out of 7 workouts between both myself and my wife the bike reset which really messes with the flow of the workout. After rebooting it did jump right back into the workout but rhythm was already broken. I did contact NordicTrack and they will be sending a replacement screen with the full word on it I just hope it doesn't continue to reset during workouts.

    I waited to get some miles on this bike before reviewing and after about 350 miles, I have some insights that can hopefully help someone make a decision. Overall, the bike is fantastic. I initially thought the incline function would be gimmicky but now that the weather has warmed and I alternate between the S22i and my road bike, I actually think that it's a great feature. The incline changes the angle, and therefore, the muscles that you use for the simulated hills. Combined with the automatically increased or decreased resistance for climbs and descents, and now that I'm comparing it to actually riding, it feels pretty accurate. So here's the breakdown that most people will find helpful. Pros: -Extremely solid drive system. It is very smooth and feels much like riding a real bike. -Good max resistance. When combined with inclines, it will challenge even the strongest riders. -Beautiful, large screen. Great resolution so it's easy to forget you're working out when you're riding in, say, Hawaii. The built in fan is nice too. -iFit has a HUGE collection of workouts. Studio, strength, endurance and scenic rides from all over the world. Combined with a comprehensive search/filter system, it's really easy to find exactly what you're looking for. -The incline/decline feature is legit. I was skeptical at first, but I really like it. Cons: -Price. I think that overall, it's worth it but it is expensive. Best Buy's 24 month 0% interest financing can help though. -It's a bit "glitchy". For example, I pair my AirPods with it. They always connect but the music automatically mutes most of the time and won't unmute. The workaround is to quit the workout and then restart it. It's fine because it only takes a minute or two and that is time I'd be warming up anyway, but it is annoying. Also, the bike's incline needs to be calibrated every 5-10 rides. It takes only a minute but if I forget to do it, the bike will get stuck in decline. I have to run the calibrate then turn it off then back on to return to level. If I remember to calibrate frequently enough, this doesn't happen. Lastly, the screen is a bit slow to respond. The latest update seemed to help but there's definitely a bit of a lag. It's only a minor annoyance because you'll be in the workout for far longer than you'll be navigating the menus. -No power switch?! Seriously, there's no power switch. The recommendation is to run it to a power strip/surge protector and turn that off. But for $2k, you think they could've included a switch. -Large size/weight. This is a large bike and it is very heavy. Something that I didn't consider before purchasing was that the basement where I keep it has 6' ceilings. They are not tall enough to do overhead work with weights while sitting on the bike during HIIT workouts. In general, just be sure you have enough space for it. That's all I have, hope this helps!

    Some of the poor aspects we didn't find in other reviews listed below. Returned the bike and went with Peloton. [ ] Beeping noise on screen selection [ ] Feel of touch screen [ ] Not possible to fast forward rides [ ] No bluetooth, no heart rate [ ] Poor video quality even at high setting [ ] Noisy incline motor [ ] Whining fan [ ] Abnormal seat to pedal position [ ] Uncomfortable angle for handles [ ] Slow touchscreen response [ ] 3min bootup time [ ] Slow speed adjustment response [ ] Wobbly handlebar [ ] Requires $33/mo family plan [ ] No help videos specific to s22i [ ] Google maps rides are a gimmick [ ] Calendar portion of app is pointless [ ] No search function for classes! [ ] Classes look like they are from the 90s

    We have it over one month now and everyone is enjoying it. I wish the quality of the HD picture on the TV monitor was a little bit better. It looks like it plays in 720p, which is just OK for the money you are spending on it. The software programs can be a little glitchy at times and sometimes it buffers for no apparent reason. I think when everyone is on their equipment using the IFit program at the same time, they start to bog down and the programs are affected. We like the automatic incline/decline, resistance and fan option on the bike. You can also turn the monitor to the side to do your aerobics with the instructor, which makes it very convenient. It’s good overall quality. I did replace the seat with a more comfortable one. The pedals with straps don’t bother and you can always replace them with clip ins if you want. I also purchased the 5 year geek squad protection plan as I read this bike is prone to breakdown more than average and geek squad will take care of all the repairs without having to contact Nordictrack directly. I do recommend this bike as it has all the features we were looking for.

    Bought this bike to replace my 20 year old LIfecycle. The bike so far has been great. I really like the huge screen and the way the bike adjusts the incline, decline, and resistance according to what IFit program you are doing. My only issue right now is getting use to the seat which seems very hard but I have heard that it takes 1-2 weeks to do so. The handlebars did shake a little when riding but since I tightened a few bolts its been pretty solid. I would recommend the geek squad to deliver and set up the bike even though I probably could have done it myself but who needs the hassle. I do like the IFit especially the scenic bike tour which are great with the huge monitor. Most of the spin classes are above my fitness level but what is nice is you can always decrease the resistance level and work your way up. So far the bike has been great and I would recommend if it fits in your budget.

    Exceeding My Expectations

    Purchased this bike to supplement my riding and to strengthen my legs. This machine is outstanding and I cannot say enough good about it. There's a lot of information and groups out there about this bike and similar brands, so I suggest you do your research and pick an exercise machine that matches what you want so you'll stay motivated to exercise. I chose this machine because it offers several features that other similar machines didn't- mainly road and mountain rides in addition to the studio type classes, automatic incline/decline and resistance adjustment, and the fan. I received my machine on 5/2/20 and since then I've logged 500 miles and over 32 hours on this bad boy. My quads, hammies and glutes are stronger, endurance is improved and energy levels are increased. You can assemble in an hour or so. Pro-tip: Make sure everything is tight. Like, TIGHT. And once you think you're good, tighten it again. This is an exercise machine, so the better you take care of it the longer you'll have high performance. I LOVE this bike and cannot wait to keep on keepin on. Things I love: Incline and decline feature Multiple resistance levels Both of the above adjust automatically with the instructors (so you can focus on working and not turning a knob) 3 speed fan Huge display The options for workouts- mountain, road, live, boot-camp style classes. Tempo, endurance, HIIT workouts. Whatever you're in the mood for, it's here. What I don't like: The seat that comes with the bike is moderately uncomfortable depending on your experience riding. I've seen some comments say it's unbearable so they replace it or put a cover on it. I swapped it out with a saddle from one of my bikes I don't ride anymore. Honestly, that'e my only issue with it.

    I cannot say enough. This bike is seriously EVERYTHING. Yes, Peloton may have one of THE BEST marketing teams ... but when it comes to the ACTUAL product, this bike is by far SUPERIOR! 1) Less expensive product 2) Built-in fan 3) Auto incline + resistance to go with the classes (manual override EASILY an option) 4) LIVE Classes 5) Less expensive memberships 6) Weights included 7) You can wear ANY shoes 8) Seat swap-able 9) Screen rotate-able 10) Streaming accessible on ALL devices (family plan available too for ALL THEIR PRODUCTS!) 11) The list goes on ... Seriously, marketing aside - this bike is in a league all its own for quality. I would recommend two people putting it together if you don't opt for the in-home assembly option as it is commercial grade - so sturdy and high-quality. Do yourself a favor and purchase it ASAP.

    We are very happy with this purchase. We did a lot of research on this stationary bike and compared it to others, like Peloton, and found that this was the best bang for the buck. We love the ifit classes. I especially love the yoga and meditation. Purchasing was easy online. Delivery was as expected, although the driver was running a little behind, he did keep in contact with my husband and advise him of his tardiness. My husband found this product easy to put together and setup. It’s sturdy and easy to use. It feels like a real cycle. We love the auto incline and how the resistance automatically changes according to your workout.

    Overall this bike is great, except the stock seat, which is possibly the worst thing you could ever sit on. So replace that with something from your local bike shop or amazon. It's definitely a little pricey, but the bike looks great and feels so sturdy. Definitely well built with good materials. The magnetic resistance means there's pretty much 0 noise. It does come with 1 year of ifit, which is very nice, and you can have up to 5 profiles (i only need 2, but that's good for larger families). Also, you can easily youtube how to install amazon prime or netflix on it as it's basically an android tablet to watch you favorite shows while exercising. There is a fan so it can cool you off as well as to make you feel like you're actually biking.
