Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I got a little worried when I removed the bike parts from the box. The hardware bag only had 4 screws, 4 lockwashers, and a locking adjustment knob in it. Then I looked at all the parts and I went uh-oh. After looking a little more closely I realized that most of the assembly nuts, bolts, and washers were already loosely installed where they belonged on the bike. This made the assembly as easy as it can get. Had the whole bike put together and tightened up in under 30 minutes. That being said there were 2 bolts missing out of 4 that hold the front handlebar in place. Hence 1 star off for that. Luckily I found 2 bolts the same size in my spare bolts drawer. For my initial trial ride I placed the bike in the upright position. Now I am 5'10" and I had to put the seat in the highest position to achieve proper leg extension. Taller folks might run into problems. I found the bike to be stable in the upright position on the carpet. I would not ride out of the saddle on this bike because the pedals are plastic. The computer display worked as advertised and was easy to read. As for seat comfort, I don't believe there is a such thing as a comfortable bike seat. The seat on this bike is ok. The underneath part is made of plastic, so here's hoping it's durable. My only complaint with this bike is the tension setting. There is no resistance until you dial it up to 12 or 13. I was aware of this before purchasing after reading reviews on Pleny's other stationary bikes. Still disappointing to find the same thing on their "premium" bike. Overall I am happy with the bike. I would recommend this bike to others. Would I buy it again? Hopefully I won't have to. Update 15 Oct 2018: The recumbent position desperately needs the seat angle to be adjustable. The back rest leans back wayyy too far. Felt like I was gonna flip off the back. Was too uncomfortable to ride in the recumbent position. Also wish the bike included a cup holder for a bottle of water.
