SB250 Recumbent Bike

We bought this bike a couple months ago. We owned a proform recumbent bike before this. The pro firm was a sturdier build but the sb250 is adequate. My only complaint is that the pulse sensor is not accurate at all. It's not even close to the actual pulse. Other than that it's pretty comfortable and the preset programs give you a decent workout.

The instructions were well written and easy but the plastic in front of the seat on the main unit was broken( but no big deal) and the back seat bracket was bent. All in all I love the comfort and the easy to navigate screan

I am on the older side and have a sensitive back. This was a great option. I needed help putting it together, but once it's together it's easy and simple to use.

The Xterra Fitness SB250 RecumbentBike is an excellent exercise machine.I am eighty-one years old and this bike fits me to a T. The SB250 Console workout progams are well designed, easy to use, and I especially like the many options available with the 24 levels with the automatic resistance system. I assembled the bike myself with a great deal of help, via the telephone, from the Xterra staff.They are patient, knowledgeable, patient, and all, patient.

Love the programs and it's comfortable seat, keeps me going for 45 minutes each night. I found it pretty easy to assemble. I don't think the Pulse Feature is accurate, since I use my own fitness watch that is accurate and the readouts are so different. Otherwise, I find this machine to be amazing.

This is a sturdy stationary bike. I bought it for my wife as gift and she says it's extremely comfortable and easy to use. I started to use it too, and I'm impressed. I usually go to the gym and I'm used to using the ones there. I am surprised at how well this compares to that. I would give it a 5 star but the directions for assembly were confusing to me, and I had a hard time getting some of the pieces to fit. The adjustment lever was stiff at first, but it's better now. I had stripped a couple of the screws, causing me to break the plastic cowling. I called XTERRA and they were very helpful and have sent me new plastic pieces for replacement. Excellent customer service - I was able to actually talk to someone. Amazing.

Arrived quickly after we ordered it. Simple to assemble. I just had knee replacement surgery, and my PT suggested I get a recumbent. I wanted something that wasn't too complicated but would hold up. I've been using it everyday and it's been great. Screen that shows time, pules, speed, etc, and other info. I recommend this bike as an excellent piece of exercise equipment.
