My type of no where bike.

[Guest guest]

Well each to there own, but I got a bike that the seat is like a chair and

the peddles are straight out in front of the chair seat. it is about six foot

long and the seat can more closer or farther away, depending on how you like it

best. they call it a redundant bike. mine is made for heavy people and is heavy

duty swin. suppose to hold up to 350 pounds and cost $500 back in 2006. this one

has the computer screen that tells everything you would ever wish to know or

need to know about how you are doing. it even has a picture of a girl riding a

bike and as you ride, so does her peddles go around. I was told this is the

case. I suppose the cute lady is suppose to cause us guys to ride faster and

harder so we can catch up with her? the screen is all touch, so if you are total

as I am, then you will need to Braille the up, down, start and stop. there is

others things you might wish to Braille, but that will be up to what you need.

you can increase the tension on the peddles by hitting up one time or more if

you really would like it tight to peddle. hitting the down makes the tension

lighten up and get easier to peddle. it does have a plug on the front of it that

has to be ran with electric to make the computer work. the handles down be side

the seat does have a strip on each handle that is suppose to tell you what your

palse is on the screen, of course if you can't see it doesn't talk. there is

also handles to either side of the computer screen if your arms are longer then

mine or if you were sitting very close to the peddles, then you could hang on to

them as well. you can find the redunit bike at other stores for a lot less

money. Wal-Mart use to carry them for around $150. it is a heavy duty, but will

still work if you aren't a huge person. you will need a six foot area though to

set it in. they are easy to move around if you need to. I really like mine and

would buy another one if this one gets to tired. some folks like the plain up

right bike like they use to only have. the seat was right above the peddles and

some the handle bars moved and some they stayed in one spot. I never liked these

kinds very well and never would ride them as I ride the one I have now. of

course look around at different bikes and make sure it is the kind you will

ride. even if it cost you a bit more then you wish to spend, it is still better

to buy a piece of exercise equipment that you will enjoy exercising on. get on

it at the store and ride it for a bit. enough so you will know if it will reach

all your requirements in a bike or what ever you get. you can even buy some

redunit bikes that the seat will all most lean back, but I didn't see how laying

down to ride would keep me awake. mine doesn't have a fan on it, but I heard the

new one's do if this is something you would like. I know I would, but just use a

fan on the table be side me and that also will work. good luck and happy trails!
