ADVENOR Magnetic Folding Exercise Bike: Get Fit and Stay Active at Home!

H.Lee: after 3 months it still works alright, in rare cases squeaky noises could be noticed.
Areas to improve: may consider including lubricant in the package as well as instruction on maintenance.

J lam: Zero issues setting it up or using it . The wires run through the middle of the frame so I can no longer use the metal pin to keep it folded tightly when not in use, but it's a minor issue.

Buy this !

Not recommended for 200+ Lb tall ppl my fiance and I ate both around 5'7 and it's perfect for us.

cat: This little bike is pretty nifty. Super easy to assemble. Every piece I needed was there, and nothing is crooked or squeaky as of the time of this review. (I'll update if anything changes).

This bike is definitely suited for beginners or people who won't be using it intensely. The tension levels arent suitable for advanced riders, as the first few options all feel relatively the same with little resistance. It also does have a slight wobble depending on how much you move your body when biking, but it doesn't feel like it's going to topple over while you're on it.

The bike itself is VERY slender and doesn't allow for much leg room, so if you have thick thighs they might brush up against the metal if you don't fan them out. It also might not be comfortable for taller individuals.

At 5'2, you do have to "climb" onto it slightly, but it's comparable to a normal bike, so there are no issues there. The seat is not comfortable, but this could easily be remedied by buying a seat cushion.

My biggest issue with this bike is:

The monitor cables. They don't have any guard or anywhere to be tucked into, which makes it look unattractive, and I can see them...

David M.: This is a decent value, in that you can indeed get a cycling work out from it. However, there are some aspects of the design that make it less than ideal if one is looking for a more serious spinning machine.

Assembly is pretty straight forward, to the point instructions seem optional. And that is a good thing considering the included visual instruction set (almost no text) is extremely basic to the point of being nearly useless. The parts largely only slot in only one direction, save for the horizontal feet bar on the front and back. And that is, unfortunately, the one part that can be installed in two different orientations. Best I could tell is that you place the "Front" and "Back" labels of these respective parts facing the front and back. The wiring harness was equally confusing. The illustration shows 3 cables from the display and 3 cables from the frame that connect to each other, each side labeled "A" "B" "A" in the instructions. The cables themselves do not have any indicators on them. However, on each side, two are identical and one is unique. That solves the "A" and the "B", but not the difference between the two "A's". I'm not even sure if the "A" matter which...

private: Extremely happy with purchase. I had read the reviews but was still surprised at the quality for the price. Even better than expected - based on this product. I would consider other products by this company. Easy to assemble with written instructions and illustrations. Basically it comes with all screws and bolts in the proper place, you unscrew, add the part, and screw back together. Necessary tools are provided. Lightweight and easy to move around. Doesn't take up a lot of room and even less when folded. The screw pin is easy to remove and fairly easy to insert. I have no problem inserting it in the folded position, but it is slightly more difficult in the open position. I think that's probably a "me" issue. But I leave it open mostly. Comfortable to ride. Adjustable seat height and tension. Distance is in kilometers instead of miles and I don't think it can be switched which was disappointing but not a deal breaker. I would definitely recommend this bike. I think it's an excellent value. Great for people getting in shape - if you are used to doing spin classes, then this probably won't provide hard enough workouts. Very happy with purchase.

Alex Wilkinson: Not going to lie, I was skeptical to buy one of these smaller folding bikes. Have had this one week now and so far so good! Very easy to put together. Every day use at minimum 1 hour and it’s still quiet, no clicking etc. I bought it because I work out of town on long shifts and was looking for a cardio option that’s suits my schedule and can fit in an SUV along with everything else packed, not to mention easy to move around anywhere-and it’s perfect! (If you need to compare, I’m F, 5’3”, 110lbs) Has a spot for my iPad, is sturdy, very quiet. Seat is comfortable but obviously long periods of sitting...you get a little sore. I haven’t paid attention to the digital console so can’t comment. Tension is surprisingly good, better than I thought it would be. This is a great little bike to add to any workout.

Update: had it 5 months now with regular use. Still quiet, occasional squeak that just goes away. Tension has kept up, seat is comfy-zero pain.

faunafani@yahoo.ca: it is a heavy package - all the parts are here - i just have to assemble it; assembled easily - the pedals nut stays where it is, do not take it out to put on the other side - this product was assembled with ease - this product is a tight, well constructed, comfortable, use with different levels, you can put it almost anywhere in your home and it blends in, or fold it up by taking the pin from b slot back to a - but it is just so tightly measured perfect it can stay in b. i am so happy i did not buy the more expensive, larger model, or one of a bright pink colour, the metal on this bike is a blended grey-black scale, the measurements, the fit, the style - is perfect - i recommend this bike for males and for females, it goes so well in front of the tv when i watch it while on my bike.

Shaolong ShuShaolong Shu: The media could not be loaded.  The item is excellent for it's use. The quality, construction and simple design seem to be unique just for what it was designed for. It met my expectations as I did not want to get into purchasing a larger more expensive type unit for the same purpose. I cannot specify comparisons to others of similarity as I have never looked this type of item prior. I do know what I have seen in other homes were large cumbersome bicycle floor-stands dominantly occupying room space.

I like how this unit collapses flat and can be put away in a closet or corner out of the way when not in use. When mentioned the quality, the metal tube construction appears to be very strong for a 215 lb pound person. Very quiet and smooth operating. Assembly was fairly easy also.
The seat is comfortable after getting used to being on a bike seat. I've already got over 70 miles on the odometer. It's nice to see your heart rate getting up. It is also quiet and provides plenty of variable resistance for a good cardio workout.

I'm overall happy and really glad I bought this.

Zixun YeZixun Ye: Received in great condition. This excise bike is surprisingly compact and even more surprisingly attractive. It's also extremely comfortable, quiet, and was easy to assemble(took me about 20mins and all by myself), and appears to be very decent quality. The instruction was super clear, and the wrenches was not easy to be messed up. My roommate has even used it for 1 hour per day.

**** UPDATE ****
Now that I've used it for about 80 miles of cycling (according to its odometer), I can safely say that it still seems good for my purposes. Include some photos for my exercise bike.

Minimal noise: I was able to ride a few times in the morning hours while cycling in the same room where my roommate was sleeping without waking him. The faint white noise wasn't enough to bother him, and he is a fairly light sleeper.

TENSION: I alternate between 5 through 7 mostly (8 being highest), and feel like this is sufficient for giving enough workout to break a sweat and put some strain on the leg muscles.

As for the heart rate measurement, I haven't tried to verify its accuracy. But I understand it’s not for medical reference. Anyway, it seems to be a great tool for shaping...
