Lifespan Fitness RC-300 Recumbent Bike
A "Top Notch" recumbent exercise bike.
First off, I am a fitness freak. I exercise 2-3 hours a day.
I have found that recumbent bikes burn alot more energy than upright bikes. Over the last 20 years i have burned my way through many recumbent bikes, some last a year, some even less.
I have 2 of these bikes, and they are still going strong after 3 years each. I ride on a heavy setting (2 from the top) for 2 X 55 mins a day, and they haven't fallen apart yet!!! Much better than any crap bike that you'd find on eBay.
I have no idea what the other reviewer was bitching about, it has 20 levels of resistance, for heavens sake did they expect the bike to ride for them????
I highly recommend this product!!!
Purchased in at Lifespan fitness website for $799.

This is not a true Recumbent Bike
I purchased this Lifespan Fitness Recumbent Bike from a dealer online.
After 2 hours of building it, I was very disappointed to find it isn't a true recumbent bike just an exercise bike with a chair on it.
I have osteo-arthritis and was looking for a "low-impact" bike that I could build up my strength for a hip replacement in a few months.
This bike has large crank arms 170mm in the wrong place, making a very large circumference, which means your knees go up past the 90 degree angle and all the impact goes through your knees, this is very p...
Read moreainful. Recumbent bikes should not cause any impact through the joints as they are advertised. The seat is not height adjustable just length of leg, so I could not lower the seat so my legs would go through a 30 degree angle, they just went higher. I tried every setting to get this bike to do what is advertised and that is be low-impact on joints.Purchased in at Gym And Fitness Online store.
