Awesome Bike

I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. Assembly of the NordicTrack S22i Studio Cycle was super easy. The optional free app in the assembly instructions make it super easy. This stationary bike is beyond what I expected. It provides a great workout experience and visuals it has numerous workouts, biking routes throughout the world, at all levels of difficulty. I love the motivation that the trainers give. And the resistance and automatic angle adjustment brings an awesome and natural change to the rides. Over all A+

When we received the Nordic Track S22i Studio Cycle on August 9, 2021, we didn’t think that all of the parts were included due to the small packaging. They packed all of the parts so perfectly that it was easy to assemble and made the process flawless for the customer. I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. I have been pleased with the Studio Cycle’s easy to understand instructions and programing. I love the way the bike inclines and declines and changes

Exercising at home just got easier

This bike has made exercising easy. It's great that I don't need to leave my home! The workouts are so variable, so it doesn't feel like I am doing the same workout every day. The large screen really helps me focus on the workout while also distracting me from my burning legs and booty.

Actually not too bad to put together. The screen is larger than I thought it would be. Makes it so much easier to see what is going on. My favorite thing about the screen part is the fact that there is a fan at the bottom and its in the best spot.

Top Notch Quality & Features
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I have used the NordicTrack S22i Studio Cycle for a couple of months now. I’d consider myself to be a typical customer, middle age, trying to increase and improve my exercise. The Cycle has been an incredible addition to my routine. At this price point you expect to have a top-notch production that warrants the price, the S22i delivers on this front. While I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion, I’ve done my best to identify the key pros to the product as well as some suggestions:
Pros:
- Screen and Connectivity: The 22” HD screen is as big as the TV I grew up with as a kid! I found a huge benefit from the larger screen when doing an instructor-led workout. With a screen that size and quality it was much easier to feel immersed in the virtual ride location. I hadn’t anticipated how much more effort I was able to give in an instructor-led workout when you feel like you’re there. The screen size and quality play a large role in creating this environment. I also was pleased with the connectivity, at this price point I would be disappointed if NordicTrack went with a cheaper processor that led to choppy video. I haven’t had any issues at all, all the videos stream really well
- Magnetic Resistance: You’ll note right away how smooth and quite the bike is, there’s no slippage or weird mechanical noise while you ride.
- Auto Resistance and Incline: As mentioned previously, I’m an average person trying to improve my exercise routine, and I benefit from having the resistance and incline auto-adjust as I’m in a workout. I’m unaware of this feature on any other stationary bike so it helps set the S22i apart. It helps make the experience more immersive when I don’t have to look down and make manual adjustments and the resistance and incline mirror the setting that you’re seeing on the screen
- iFit Access: NordicTrack’s iFit program helps usher in the next phase of home workouts, where multiple devices can be synced into a central fitness hub. Also, instructor-led workouts that I can do in my own house without the hassle of going to the gym is ideal. Having multiple family members on the same account offers even greater value for the price
- Setup: There are also multiple ways to access the assembly instructions which were thorough and easy to follow, they had a printed copy as well as an option to access instructions via your phone. It took me about 30 minutes to set the bike up and if you follow the instructions, you shouldn’t have any problems
- Design: I’m lumping a couple items into this category as they all work the make the S22i have “it”. After riding for a while on the bike I can see the thought that went into the inclusion and placement of the water bottle holders, the fan that works surprisingly well, the ability to stream your own workout music, use your own Bluetooth headphones, and the availability and comfort of the handlebars which are not too soft but not too hard either. It’s also very easy to move. It kind of reminds me of the thought that goes into the design and interphase with Apple and other top end products.
Suggestions:
- Workout Library: I have yet to find a workout series that I didn’t like, all the instructors are what you’d want in a workout ‘coach’. I look forward to additional content being added going forward.

I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. The large 22” smart touch screen console is so easy to use and is the perfect size! I am a beginner cyclist and really love the classes provided by the IFIT trainers. Super cool that they can control our bikes settings automatically throughout their workouts. This creates a realistic effect which I love. My husband is a more experienced cyclist and he was able to find classes for his skill level too. We both get excited to use it! Glad that the seat is so easy to adjust. Would recommend this!

I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion and it has honestly surpassed all of my expectations.
I have really enjoyed all of the options available in the iFIT studio. Depending on my mood I have more than enough riding styles and intensity levels to choose from. Having recently given birth this has been a great option to have at home. Prior to my pregnancy I loved mixing up my rides between mountain biking on the trails near my home and hitting up the studio for a music tempo ride. With the iFIT I have all that and more right at my finger tips and all without having to leave the comforts of my home. Which has been a huge help with a new baby. Definitely would recommend!

Features worth it

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I am picky about spin bikes as I have used a lot of them. I really like that this has some great features that I was honestly skeptical about. The large screen is actually great for a workout because I stay engaged. The hand weights keep me engaged when I used an iFit workout or another on the bike. My only complaint is the manual mode takes too long to start up.

WOW, this bike is awesome! I am very active, big mountain biker, hiker, snowboarder, and this NordicTrack bike has been great! The variety of classes that are offered make working out enjoyable! From an intense spin class to a nice recovery ride through Sun Valley, ID. (or any other destination around the world). Easy to use and it makes it easy to get a quick workout in when you have a busy day.

I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. The assembly of this product was fairly easy when following the associated app. Tools are provided, but you might need a couple of additional tools to complete all steps.
I've really enjoyed using this machine so far. It's been so great to have something to use inside my home rather than being out in the Texas heat trying to get my workouts in. Also really good to have as a new mom! I've been able to sneak in a workout during early mornings or nap times without having to leave the house and can jump off when my baby wakes!
The ride is incredibly smooth and it's so nice to be able to easily adjust the height of the saddle and handle bars so that my husband (6' 4") and I (5' 8") can both jump on for rides without having to worry too much about adjusting.
I've really enjoyed the guided rides and LOVE that the bike auto adjusts the resistance and incline based on the ride. It really provides for a great workout without having to think too much about it or plan ahead. As a new mom, this is a great feature!

Game Changer!

I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. Wow! I am extremely impressed with this bike. Having owned a couple others and having used several at different gym, I believe that this is the best gym bike I have ever used.
I'm still getting used to the auto incline, specially when I'm not holding on to the bars but I have to say that this feature makes the bike fun. It is well built and solid when riding. The screen has a beautiful display and I love that it has a built in fan.
The instructors are fun and engaging, I very much enjoy the studio workouts as much as the guided outdoor workouts. I'm going to say this, I truly think this is the best bike out there and even at lower price than some of its competitors. Overall, this has been a fantastic addition to my home gym.

junk software and terrible support
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
I did a lot of research before buying my S22i. I personally think the design and features are far superior to Peloton or Peloton +. I raved about it to my co-workers who are all Peloton riders and laughed at what they pay vs. the cost of iFit. Well, they're the ones laughing at me now. For many weeks I've been dealing with iFit crashing multiple times every single ride. Support tries to help, which is pretty much a hard reset, force software update - get you off the phone. Then you ride again the next day and it crashes and crashes. Back yet again, with another support rep who wants to do the same thing over, and over, and over. I finally called them out and the next rep tries to blame it on my wi-fi. Asking trap questions so they can just blame your network and get off the phone. Finally, they have a 3rd party app you install on your phone and it scans your wifi connection. They don't tell you that it is gathering data on every single device on your home network - and that is a complete invasion of my privacy. But, it did show them that my network is rock solid. So, another hold - comes back, yes the good good news is your network is stellar as you said. The bad news is this is a known software bug that we are working but have no ETA to fix. I just keep riding until it magically disappears with a software update. They tell me this after weeks of troubleshooting, weeks of crashes, weeks of bike resets and weeks of BS. I am done with NordicTrack and am buying a Peloton +. Just disgusted with these people.

I was given this product for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. I have been using this stationary bike for a few weeks and I really enjoy it. It has an awesome system that raises up and down as your terrain changes during your work out. The resistance is very gradual and not very noticeable until it eases up again.

I was provided the unit for a reduced price in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion. I've never been a cyclist for the most part and I wasn't sure if tis type of workout would work for me. I was wrong about that. I'm working muscles I've not used in years. Amazing machine!

I was a gym rat before the pandemic. I have asthma and no longer feel safe going to the gym. There is a treadmill and a few free weights in my home. Adding the NordicTrack Commercial S22i Studio Cycle has been a game changer. I love it.

You should buy a peloton instead - Hardware issues
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Probably the worst investment I have bought in a very long time. Its like buying a new car without checking the engine first. It looks great, the wheels turn, but the hardware on this (the ifit app) fails constantly. I have had 2 consoles only to have them slowly corrupt and crash on me.
I cant remember how many hours have been wasted trying to fix this hardware and or even try to contact customer support.
This is a common issue, it is all over the internet if you just know where to look. The company must know about it and is just ignoring it as business comes in. Such a shame.
