Complete Disaster
I purchased this bike from Academy Sports a few years ago. I used it daily and stored it in my living room right in front of the television. It gave me the results I needed for about 6 months and then fell apart. I fit the weight requirement for using this exercise equipment and was unpleasantly surprised when it fell apart. The entire seat fell off during exercise. The pole that runs along the backside bent completely in half and I was almost seriously injured. Upon inspection I noticed that it was completely bent after a few months of use. I didn't bother contacting customer service even though I purchased a warranty that would have replaced it. There is no way I want another incident like this to happen. I have purchased a different brand and am about the same size I was when this happened I have no problems with the new bike. The bike is on the cheaper end for a reason. You get what you pay for. I was using it daily for 30 to 60 minutes. There is no way it should've bent or given me any problems like that. Beware there is a huge price to pay for buying items like this. The frame is flimsy and its not prepared for heavy daily use. Which is what I am always looking for in my fitness equipment. If you only have 20lbs or so to lose then this may work well for short term use.
