Dual Action Cross Training Recumbent Exercise Bike with Arm Exercisers, Gym Equipment for Work from Home Fitness, Black JX-7301

Very nice exercise bike for the money. Seems fairly well built, having used angular steel instead of steel tubing for the main support structure. Have been using it for several weeks now, and so far no major complaints. But, I would like to mention several minor issues I did notice during assembly and initial first use. First, the display ONLY registers speed and distance in KILOMETERS, not MILES-PER-HOUR as I feel it should for the American market. And there is no way to change it. There is a small letter "K" on the left side of the display that indicates this. During assembly, several of the screws and washers are mislabeled between the manual and the actual parts. Such as, the manual says use part #51, but the actual part is labeled as part #61 in the kit. The screws to attach the display are already screwed into the back of the display unit. The manual suggests these screws are separate from the display unit and located somewhere else in the kit. They are not. The seat is VERY HARD and a bit of an awkward design. Men may find it particularly uncomfortable the longer they ride. My bike arrived with damage to the foam padding on the handle bars, as well as a large paint chip on the left handle bar. See pictures. I contacted the company about it, but so far no response as to getting replacements. It took about half a day to assemble the bike, but do yourself a favor and use real tools to assemble the bike. Such as a deep socket metric set, and a real Phillips screw driver and Allen wrenches. The tools that come with the kit suck.

Easy to put together!

First of all, it took over three hours to assemble. I got passed that. The right pedal/rods immediately started squeaking with the first use and it felt kind of clunky. I sprayed a little TD-40 on it and that seemed to take care of it. The next day, during my second use, it started squeaking again and, within 10 minutes, the rod completely snapped off! Smh...I called Marcy. They were not help. I called Amazon and set up a return/refund. Amazon was great. No issues with them.

It's a good machine. Ride it while watching TV. The adjustable seat holding bar isn't the greatest. It tends to come loose and the seat glides on you while pedaling. You have to stop and relock it place

This Marcy recumbent bike has really helped my recovery after having knee replacement surgeries and MUA on both knees! After being wheelchair-bound for many years and not having much, if any, flexion, it was crucial to get my knees moving after surgery. I'm on this bike for 10 minutes, 3-4 times a day, and it actually feels good to get that circular motion going to relax my stiff knees. In the beginning, I really needed the moving arms of the bike to help my legs pedal since my flexion was limited, but now my legs can do it on its own. The seat is a bit firm which is fine for me but may be uncomfortable for some. While I definitely notice the different tension levels, my husband didn't really notice a huge difference from the lowest to the highest level. It's my therapy bike anyways. :) I've been using the bike for about 6 months now. The one thing I make sure to do is to periodically check and tighten some bolts. Marcy customer service was also really helpful when I had some questions.

If it wasn't for whatever cheap bearing/gears/parts this would be a 10/5 amazing deal because it's one of the few recumbent bikes out there that's priced well, fits well, and also works the arms. But the amount of noise it makes is soul-grating. This is not some "oh, the breaks are squealing on my car occasionally" kind of noise, this is machine-shop levels of metal on metal screeching. And that's if the wheel doesn't get locked up. I'm not saying to violate the warranty, but if you have someone in your life who is engineering-savvy then it might be worth a $8 bottle of bearing oil and an afternoon doing bike surgery to see about fixing it.

As a graduate engineer I can say there is a significant disconnect between the assembly instructions and actual assembly. The package was well designed and assembly simplified. Major problem in that the connector rod instructions are actually off by 180 degrees making it impossible to assemble the bike. Fortunately the picture on the box is correct which helped me understand that the instruction sheet showed the right rod backwards. The bike itself is sturdy, well designed, and as advertised. The sketch on the outside of the box clearly showed me the problem. Unfort-unately you are not aware it is backwards and won’t fit together until 6 steps later. A corrected set of assembly instructions should be provided purchaser’s.

I think this is the best all-over workout Bike, easy on your knees, and you do not get tired as fast as some workout equipment.

Love it. Leave it in living area. We both use as you go by

The order and shipping communication was excellent. It actually came in ahead of time. setting up instructions were very good. It took 3-4 hours to finish it. The pedals could use another 2-3 mm of thread in order for the locknut to catch. I rode bike for ~ 15 min and the right handle linkage siezed upon the pedal and spun the pedal off. In order to put ir together I had to sand down the pedal shoulder the fits into the linkage until it did not stick and regrease it. That is where i am right now I am tbinking I might have to do the left pedal linkage also. I will run iit a little more before i do it. I had similar problems with the Marcy airbike but I fixed them and the unit has over 10,000 kms on it now and it is still working although everything is a little looser. These are excellent units for seniors as they get a lot of muscles and joints moving without putting to much stress on them.

Overall this is a solid exercise bike and it works well once set up. The machine feels sturdy and is good for home workouts. However, the right pedal has a problem and will not screw into the frame properly, so it won’t go in all the way even with WD40. Aside from that issue, the bike itself seems like a good machine.
