With all this remote work, it feels like we have become even more sedentary, simply replacing sitting in a car during a commute for sitting longer in front of our devices at home or on the sofa. To get us up and moving, UREVO has introduced an indoor stationary spin bike.
Priced at $199.99 and available on Amazon, I was instantly drawn to the comfort of the ride and the challenging workout it gave me. Here’s my review.
Features and Performance
The spin bike can be personalized to your preferences, including adjustable handlebar, seat height, and resistance. The bike comes with an LCD monitor to easily track distance, time, speed, and calories burned. The seat can be easily adjusted to go either up and down or front and back.
The bike also comes with a free floor mat, which is great to put down on the carpet or hard flooring to protect the flooring while helping keep the bike in-place.
The aluminum alloy cage style pedals can be adjusted to accommodate different foot sizes. It also provides good traction so my foot doesn’t slip.
Other features include a bottle holder and tablet holder, which also kept me on the bike longer. I had my drink and entertainment to distract me from the challenging ride.
Design
Available in black or white, this is a smooth-riding, sturdy stationary bike that is quiet but yet can really push me to a good workout. Its design features a belt-driven system along with a steel frame and heavy weighted flywheel. The brake pad is made of pure wool to decrease the noise level.
It offers continuous infinite resistance adjustment so it feels like real road cycling. To stop, all you have to do is pull the emergency brake lever and it will stop immediately.
What I Like and What Could Be Better
The bike was challenging and comfortable, which motivated me to keep using it and enjoying a much longer bike ride. I also like its safety features like the resistance bar that will immediately stop the flywheel. It was also easy to put together and lightweight enough to move around the house. For storage, it also doesn’t take up too much room.
The bike does only hold a person up to 260 pounds so it may not be made for some who want to drop pounds over that limit.
Overall Thoughts
The UREVO offered a comfortable indoor riding experience with an ergonomic design that gives me no excuses for not working out. This is a high-quality bike that is fairly priced. I like that it also comes with one year of free parts replacement. It’s easy to assemble, move, and use.
