Review 2
This customer is quite satisfied with this exercise bike because it works fine and came in a great package. However, she feels that the unit could have been better due to several reasons. First, there are not enough adjustment options for the seat to pedal ratio. As a result, she had a difficult time adjusting to the most suitable position. The handle bars are also quite inconvenient because they only move up and down. However, she still thinks that the unit has a great value and price. She rated this unit with 4 stars.
