Sunny Health & Fitness Stationary Exercise Bike Machine w/4-Way Adjustable Cushion Seat & Multi-Grip Handlebar, Indoor Cycling Equipment for Home Cardio Training, Optional Heavy-Duty & 40LB Flywheel

My wife and I have been using this Sunny bike for about 8 months, so I thought it was time to write a review. We had been taking spin classes for years at a gym, but when the gym closed we bought this home spin bike. We each use it about 3 times we week, and its held up well.The Good:A reasonable price.Pretty east to assemble with all needed tools included.A small enough footprint to keep in our bedroom (Picture)Seems solid for the price, and its held up well.Very smooth and quiet operation with the belt drive - whatever bike you get, get a belt drive!Some suggestions:We subscribed to online spin classes to keep us motivated. I highly recommend Studio Sweat on Demand. studiosweatondemand.com. I’ve seen Pelelon advertised, but this was more in our price range. It has a ton of spin workouts - from 20 minutes to two hours - plus a lot of other gym workout videos. It has a Beginning Spinner video if you’re new to spinning. It has something for every spinning experience level. We got a $99 New Year’s one year subscription, but monthly subscriptions are available for about $19.95. Highly recommended. You can find some spin workouts on YouTube, but these are professional and fun.By the way, I connect my iPad to my Apple TV with a sound bar (Picture), which really rocks the music. But that isn’t necessary.We also purchased a floor pad which we recommend - https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B001THTUAO/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1Also, if you plan to watch the videos on a tablet, this holder finds on the handlebar and keeps it right at eye level. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B06ZXRH84M/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1A couple of maintenance items:It is recommended you oil the pressure pad on the front wheel from time to time. I purchased this oil, which is easy to apply. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H3SD2FR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1My only warning… I put on too much the first (and only) time and really had to tighten the resistance to get it to the level I wanted. Start with a small amount and work up!And finally - the manual recommends you check and tighten the nuts on the bike, especially on the pedals, every month or so. Do it! The only nut I found that loosened was on the left pedal. (Picture) The motion of the pedal works in a direction that can loosen this side. Mine was a little loose. I check it every couple of weeks, and have had to tighten it a little several time. I have read in reviews that one or two people said their pedal broke… I wonder if they didn’t tighten it, and when it worked loose it put too much strain on the shaft. I keep the tightening tool that they sent near the bike so this is quick and easy to do.That pretty much covers it. Happy riding!

I’ve had this for a month now and although it’s early, I feel good enough about the product to give it a five star review. First thing, it’s very heavy. Be prepared to have someone help you get the box into the house and up or down any stairs. It’s a beast. Which is a good thing. Once it’s set up, it’s rock solid. The set up was fairly straightforward. Upon first use I was thrilled and very happy. Whisper quiet. After two weeks, it developed a noise coming from from the front flywheel area. I contacted Sunny customer service and received a quick response, including a video on how to diagnose the noise. It took me about 20 minutes, and I discovered a screw that had not been properly installed on the belt guard. Once I put everything back together, no more noise. I will update this if necessary, but, for this price, I’m thrilled.

FIrst of all, unless something is perfect, I never give 5 star reviews. Than being said, this is a really good home spin bike. Me and my wife studied dozens of different brands and models across a wide array of pricing. Based of what we considered honest and unbiased reviews, we settled on this Sunny SF-B1423 Model with the 40lb Flywheel at only $252.00 here on Amazon. Hoping it would be at least ok, turns out this Sunny bike is better than we thought. I kept this for myself and bought her a more expensive connected bike so she can get on the interactive spinning apps.PROS: Well built solid frame that even me at 6'1", 240lbs feels locked in with no shaking or bike wobbling. The bike looks and feels way more expensive than what it costs. Everything seems well constructed (except the LCD monitor...) Smooth quiet flywheel. I am still impressed with how relatively quiet this inexpensive exercise bike is. At normal speeds you can't hear it more than a few feet away. Resistance works great....I get a great workout off this thing and I am nowhere near maxing this machine out. Some people like levers to change the resistance but the resistance knob on this one is pretty good. The bike seat and handlebars are ergonomic and adjusts to a variety of sizes--Everyone in the family has ridden it and it accomodates to people of all sizes.CONS: Not bluetooth or Antenna connected. (If you don't need that interactive stuff, no problem). LCD display that comes with it is basically useless as it has a funky interface and doesn't have RPM/Cadence. You will need to spend $30 or so to get you a cheap bike computer or affixable device that gives RPM/Cadence so you can ride along with the Peloton, iFit or Zwift app on your smartphone, tablet, or TV. When you get in the higher resistance levels the noise level does go up, however, I did not find it nowhere near as bad as some of the others have claimed. One annoying thing is that the knobs to lower, shift, and raise the seat/handlebars work fine but take a bit to adjust—Slows you down when switching from person to person. Lastly, definitely not a huge issue but the dolly wheels are too small and makes moving this heavy bike on carpet a little cumbersome.There you have it....A good Home Spin Bike for Price. I recommend it. No, It's not a Peloton or a Echelon but it's pretty good for approximately $250. If you don't want to go broke on a Spinning bike and you don't need RPM/Cadence then I believe this is probably the best home spin bike for the price on the market.
