Marcy Recumbent Bike - ME709

I am soooo glad that I made this purchase. About a month after buying this bike I broke my foot. After about a month, the doc said that I could start back doing some cardio...with limitations of course, like no running. However using this bike was perfect. I flipped the petal over upside down and propped my boot on that and petaled with my good foot. I usually will ride the bike without shoes, its more comfortable for me that way. The bike is super quiet and it was easy enough to assemble. I have lost alot inches/weight! I try to use it at least three times a week for ninety minutes ( I started with thirty minutes and just keep moving up as I felt comfortable). I also will do speed intervals for about a minute or two for each ten minute segment. I will speed up really fast like for a speed of twenty and when I am not going too fast I keep it steady between thirteen and fifteen with a resistence of like three. The bike has monitors for time, speed, calories burned, etc. When I got back to work after being out for like six weeks everyone said that they noticed that I have lost weight. Keep in mind I hadn't starting exercising consistantly with the bike until after week four...so that's like two weeks of consistent cardio! I did do upper body exercises with weight during that four week period (also push ups and sit ups). The scale did NOT say that I had lost weight when I had began receiving the compliments, however my clothes fitted me better. The seat on this bike is good and it doesn't hurt my bottom. I also my use hand weights while using this bike for a great upper body work out as well. Hope this helps.

The bike seems flimsy, but is adequate for a budget minded person. No bells and whistles, but the price is fair!

I had neck surgery several years ago and after trying other exercise bikes I realized I needed a recumbent bike so my neck would not be strained while I worked out. This bike is an excellent value. It was easy to assemble although there are a couple places, when assembling the handle bars you need an extra set of hands, I did it myself. It is lightweight enough for me to move easily from room to room depending on what I am doing while I exercise. The seat and arms are wider and it doesn't take up a lot of room. It is sturdy and has wonderful read outs. Basic but very well worth the money and just what I needed!

You get a lot for your money. Easy to put together for this woman. Just take your time. The seat section has a little give to it even with all the bolts tightened, but that's arlright. The resistance is excellent. It is light but stable - it really doesn't take up much room and looks fine in my bedroom under the windows. I move it around: facing the window, facing the TV. Oh, it is quiet. The only tricky part is hooking up the tension wire - you'll need a second set of hands. Shop around for the best price - it varys. Wayfair had the best price.

Service Review

When it is delivered though, FedEx will drop it where it is convenient for them b/c it is heavy. Track it and make sure you are around (or someone else) when it delivered all it will walk away.

Too soon to know if it's doing anything for me.. But if your watching TV you can watch and bike at the same time which is nice.

I have really enjoyed this bike So glad i purchased this one

Delivery was quick as usual. From the comments I read, I thought I would have problems putting the bike togerther but it was a breeze. I am a 60 year old woman with a back injury (hence the bike) and I was able to put it together by myself. I works great,is silent and I can watch TV while exercising. Love it!

Did not take long to put to gather. ( one of the nut was not the right one) bike works well .
