Even though you are likely to see a number of exercise contraptions on a frequent basis on your fitness journey, you can rarely go wrong with an exercise bike – and there is a good reason that makes it an enduring favorite of many people. One of the major benefits it gives is a good physique over time, even while remaining a form of low impact exercise – it never puts undue pressure on your body.

When you are in the midst of pedaling an exercise bike, the muscles within your stomach and legs give you the best power and position, which allows you to focus on burning calories and losing unnecessary fat stores.

In addition, bikes are user friendly, and they help you increase your stamina without the risk of injuring yourself, unlike high-impact sports like running. The best part of it is that you do not need to worry about weather conditions outside, especially when you are cycling indoors – and it tones your body in ways you might not have thought of.

What are the muscles that are at work when you cycle?

Some of the leg muscle groups that are in use when you cycle are:

• Calf muscles
• Quads (Quadriceps, which are in the front part of the thighs)
• Gluteus Maximus (your bum)
• Hamstrings (these are at the back of your thigh)
• Hip flexors
• Dorsiflexors of your foot
• Plantarflexors of your foot

When these muscle groups contract together in a certain sequence, this creates the motion of pedaling. In addition, there are some muscle groups in the upper body that also work to give you a total workout when you cycle, although they mostly function as support systems to give your body balance. They are:

• The back muscles
• Abdominal muscles – both external and internal
• Shoulders and chest
• Arm muscles

What are the benefits to your stomach muscle?

Even though it may not work the upper body in particular, there are some benefits that it still provides, which include:

• Creation of a calorific deficit – cycling in general will help your body create a calorific deficiency, as it is burning more calories than what you are taking in. this forces it to use the fat stores for your energy, and you begin to slim down – eventually revealing the toned muscles that are underneath these fat stores.
• Stress relief – Any kind of exercise you do can count as a method of stress relief, but being in a spinning class can be good for you since it allows you to talk to other people – especially if you are in the same weekly class. It will also help you relax from tough days, since the classes also have some upbeat music, while the instructor can offer plenty of motivation to help you feel better.
• The exercise is kind to the joints – cycling is among the low impact exercises, which means that it does not place much pressure on your joints such as the ankles and knees. This makes it kinder to you if you have conditions affecting your bones like arthritis, and it is also a useful activity for older and overweight or obese people to do, since it only involves muscle movements. However, there is something you need to also keep in mind: to lose a significant amount of weight, you need to cycle at moderate to high speeds for at least 250 minutes every week. This is equal to about 45 minutes every day, which is how long a spinning session lasts.

How cycling engages your core

Obviously your legs will be doing plenty of work as you pedal through the session, but your core – your center – is where most of the energy comes from. This area is not just your stomach, but also includes the pelvic floor muscles, the abs, and your lower back.

As you are riding the bike, the abs will help you maintain stability and prevent upper body movements that cause unnecessary rotation. As you ride the bike, the core and abs come in to stabilize your movements, but the activity will not directly build them like plank holds and crunches would.

Instead, cycling activates the use of these muscles because it forces them to continuously draw in towards the spine, similar t when you are about to cough or sneeze. As you continue doing a few drills lasting 30 to 60 seconds and increasing the resistance, you learn to maintain control, which eventually builds your abdominal stamina.

In order to increase the benefits you are getting from your cycling session, make sure you drop on the floor and do some additional exercises that strengthen the core. You will begin noticing that your sessions on the bike will last longer, and your midsection becomes stronger. The exercises are:

• Stability ball crunches – lie on a stability ball, and make sure it is supporting your lower back. Plant your feet firmly on the floor and place your hands behind your head, then crunch up and down for 10 to 15 times. Do three sets.
• Stability ball bird dog – on a stability ball, balance your midsection while maintaining a belly-first position. Place your hands flat on the floor and tuck your toes behind you to form a plank. Raise your left leg and right arm slowly, hold, and then repeat with the right leg and left arm. Repeat for 20 times.
• Hip bridge – on an exercise mat, lie down with your knees bent and your head on the floor. Place the hands along the hips, and lift your bum to make a straight line from the knees to shoulders. Pause and breathe two times, then release. Repeat three sets, and do the move 12 times for each set.

Final thoughts

Spinning provides plenty of work for your leg muscles, but it also engages the core muscle groups in a major way to help you build your stamina. However, you also need to set up your bike properly and engage in other core-building exercises in order to make the most of your spinning sessions.

There are many people out there considering purchasing or using an exercise bike – primarily for losing those annoying pounds and increasing fitness – and you might be among them. Your search eventually leads you to the information that not all bikes are the same, and the features that separate them do not seem like much, but they are quite significant.

One of the bikes you might be considering are the spin bikes, which are among the most popular and you will find them in almost any gym you decide to visit. However, does their use have any disadvantages or advantages? Read on to find out our thoughts on that, which will help you make a solid decision in case you are considering buying them.

What are the pros?

Helps you burn calories

It is important to remember that spinning and exercise in general is not the only way to burn calories, but it helps in the process. In particular, spinning itself is a good way to burn them quickly – a typical class will last about 45 minutes, and you will burn up to 500 calories in one session.

However, this will also depend on your cycling frequency and how you do it, so this means that the calories you burn will be higher if you increase the resistance levels.

Helps you to tone up

Spinning forces multiple muscle groups in your body to get to work – your core, quads, bums, arms (depending on the workout), legs and thighs. Therefore, that 45-minute session eventually leads to toning of these areas, especially if you work hard on them.

If you also increase the resistance levels, it will give you extra power to become as toned as you wish, even on your arms and abs, and the introduction of weights will also force extra muscle groups to work. In fact, this is one advantage they have over stationary bikes, which will primarily work the legs, quads, thighs and bum only.

It offers a low-impact exercise

You likely do not want to suffer injuries to various body parts during an exercise session, but spinning is a low-impact exercise so you will not need to worry about that. It will not put a lot of pressure on the joints, unlike normal running exercises – so it is useful to staying fit even when you have knee injuries without making the pain worse.

Helps in stress relief

Any kind of exercise you do can count as a method of stress relief, but being in a spinning class can be good for you since it allows you to talk to other people – especially if you are in the same weekly class. It will also help you relax from tough days, since the classes also have some upbeat music, while the instructor can offer plenty of motivation to help you feel better.

Spin bikes also allow you to exercise multiple muscle groups, which also helps to release tension and help you relax.

It helps you track your progress

Spin bikes have a great advantage over many exercise bikes – they have a monitor, which assists you to keep track of your progress. This includes your cycling speed, the calories you are burning, and the distance you are covering.

The usual instance, especially in a spinning class, is that the instructor will use the data to set goals for you to reach, which makes it easier for you to keep track of your progress as you go every week.

It has a similar feel to a road bike

Unlike stationary bikes, spin bikes have a similar feel to road bikes since they allow you to adjust the handlebars and seat, which means you can even do the exercise sessions while standing and leaning without looking awkward.

What are the disadvantages?

Back pain

Even though spin bikes are great as they allow you to work multiple areas in your body, it is very important to be careful regarding the state of your back. The use of the machine will mostly force you to hunch forward, which can be quite painful on your back and associated muscles, or lead to strains and worse conditions.

If you happen to feel any back pain, make sure to tell the instructor and they will show you better body posture, and adjust the handlebars to a correct position that does not require you to hunch your back too much.

You risk ignoring the upper body

It is great to take a spinning class if you want to emphasize the working out of your lower body, but you can risk ignoring your upper body if you are not careful to balance things out. The exception would be if your trainer incorporates weights or press-ups as you work out, which helps you train both areas equally.

You might push too far

The best thing about spin bikes is that they will give you a continuous workout, but this is also the worst part about them – they do not allow for intermittent breaks that you can use to rest in between the exercises. Since you are moving for close to an hour non-stop, you can risk pushing yourself too hard, in the misguided belief that you will make your workouts or progress faster.

This is not the case, as it can lead to you pushing yourself too hard and overworking the body. This eventually results in burnout and fatigue, and you fail to last until the end of the class. However, this is not a major issue, since spinning is a low impact exercise and will not put too much strain on the muscles.

Spin bikes can be uncomfortable

They are not the friendliest of machines to use in certain cases, as many people complain of pain in the pelvic bones. In addition, it can be uncomfortable for pregnant women to use – but in all cases, you can change this by adjusting the seat to a comfortable height and the handlebar positions.

Final thoughts

Spin bikes are quite good for enhancing your workout progress, but they also have a number of disadvantages that you need to keep in mind before buying them. As long as you can alternate it with other forms of exercise, you will be fine in the long term.

It is not surprising that cycling is among the most effective and accessible ways of staying fit, as it helps you burn calories and increase your stamina and fitness. It also has other benefits, such as boosting your blood flow and increasing your heart rate, and can provide a low-impact form of exercise for many people that might not be able to handle high-intensity exercises, such as pregnant women and the elderly.

If you are starting a workout program though, especially in cycling, a certain question starts popping up – will there be a significant impact if you choose to go for a spin bike, or will there be less impact if you go for a stationary bike? Bikes are of different kinds, and it is important to know the differences so that you know what you are getting out of them, as well as whether they are important for your overall fitness progress.

In this article, we will look at both stationary and spinning bikes, and you can make an informed choice on which one is superior for you.

Breakdown of the comparisons

Primary use

Both of these are bikes, but they differ in their primary purpose. For one, stationary bikes are meant to assist in a generalized fitness and health program, so they are more versatile in their use. Anyone can use them, as long as they are willing to boost their cardiovascular fitness levels, see improved results from their weight loss efforts, and build muscle strength.

On the other hand, a spin bike tends to be more specialist, and is used in a spinning group fitness class. The usual case is that professional cyclists will use them more often. This is because they can mimic the body position on a regular bike much better than a stationary bike, because the handlebars are lower – so you hunch more when you use them.

If you happen to be a cyclist and want to train indoors, there are bigger transfer-over benefits if you use spin bikes.

Risk of injury

When you are looking at the risk of injuries, it is important to look at the setup of the bike itself. The stationary bike actually has a higher injury risk compared to the spin bike, as surprising as that sounds. This is because the flywheel in a spin bike is much easier to handle, so it can maintain a constant motion of the bike itself, which makes it less impactful on your joints.

With that in mind, spinning at a very high speed and doing it while standing will increase your injury risk, so you also need to account for this. If you are only sitting and spinning, then the injury risks are low – however, you might suffer from back pain, since you are mostly hunched over when cycling (unless you adjust the seat and handlebars).

Ease of usage

Both of these bikes are quite easy to use and get used to, because all you need is hopping on them and begin cycling. If you have ridden a bike before, you will have little to no issues transitioning to their use.

While an upright bike feels slightly different compared to a traditional bike, the difference is not significant enough to force issues on you when you are doing your workout, so you will adjust quickly.

Progression model

This is quite similar in both bike types. They all have the ability to increase the resistance levels, which makes the exercise harder to finish and builds your fitness and strength by forcing you to work harder. The harder your muscles work, the more your heart works, so it will ultimately increase your cardiovascular fitness. They also both allow you to spin faster, so you can do so on any machine if that is your ultimate goal.

The difference comes in because the spin bikes allow you to cycle while standing, which stationary bikes do not (otherwise, your body will be in an awkward position if you stand on them), so you need to consider if you want to incorporate standing or not.

The muscles they work

Both of these bikes work similar muscle groups, unless you are standing up on the spinning bike. For regular biking, you are working the calves, hamstrings, quads and glutes, as well as the core (to a small extent) as it helps you stay balanced.

However, when you are standing, you are placing greater stress on the muscles of the lower body, and that forces you to work other areas such as the calves, back, core, arms and shoulders, all to a greater extent. Standing while cycling is a more involving body workout, so it is important to consider this.

If you want to work all these areas, even if you are not doing other exercise routines, it is better to buy a spin bike.

Calorie burning

This is another important factor to consider when you are debating on what choice to make. Keep in mind that spin bikes will make you burn more calories, since you are incorporating more muscle groups into the exercise (that is, if you are standing), and that you are also using more energy to maintain the motion of the flywheel.

In the spin bike, the flywheels are heavier, so you are using more energy to maintain their motion for every rep.

In a seated position though, there is not much difference in calorie burn, so you can go with whatever bike works for you.

Console

Spin bikes do not have a console that shows you various metrics such as your calorie burn, the distance you have cycled, and so on. If these metrics are important to you, consider going for the stationary bike.

Final thoughts

It can be challenging to choose between the spin and stationary bikes, but it is important to consider which one is more comfortable for you, how you plan to use them, and likely try a few machines to figure it out if you are unsure.

The best spin bike not only need to be comfortable, but also it should have resistance, be durable, and mobile. We have here some of the best on the market.

Do you want to be fit without ever stepping out of your home? If that sound like you, then spin bike let you do exactly that. However, with thousands of options screaming for your attention, it is difficult to know which one is the best let alone choose.

Cyclists have different needs, and that’s why you need the best bike to accommodate that. The crucial thing is to get a bike that will not only help you keep fit but also be comfortable and enjoyable to work out on. Remember, all bikes are not made equal.

In this review and buying guide, we will look at several spin bike in the market and help you choose one that best fit your home and workout needs.

Let’s get started.

Before You Buy That Spin Bike

You will need to consider several important factors. Trust me; you are allowed to make poor choices on other things but not on health and fitness.

Comfort

When working out on a spin bike, comfort is crucial. Otherwise, you will become uncomfortable and end your training session prematurely. A comfortable bike will encourage you to work out for long. It also reduces risk of injuries, back pain and muscular discomfort. In short, having a comfortable bike will make your workout fun instead of a nightmare.

You should check the seat and ensure it is adjustable. Having the correct seat position has two benefits. First. It ensures you are not overbending your knees and secondly, being able to adjust your seat ensures your feet and hips are in the proper position. This allows you to get the maximum benefit from your training.

Resistance

Resistance is an essential feature of a spin bike. You should be able to adjust the resistance of your bike to fit your fitness or raise it if you need more challenge. An adjustable resistance lets you decrease or increase the intensity of your workout.

A quality spin bike will have a magnetic resistant system. This technology is excellent because there is no friction which is responsible for tear and wears. This reduces your cost of maintenance.

Weight

Your weight that is, not the bike.

While most spike bikes are sturdy and can handle the weight of most people, it is vital to check whether the spin bike you intend to buy can manage your weight. You don’t want to break the bike or bend it after spending all the money. Most bikes can support the weight from 270lbs to 300lbs.

Space and mobility of the bike

If you have a dedicated space where you will put the bike, then this should not be a problem. However, if you have limited space but still want to keep fit, then it is a concern. Spin bikes come in a variety of size and weight. It makes more sense to go for a compact bike that has wheels so you can move and store with ease. With this, you can turn your living into a gym quickly without lifting a muscle.

Cost

The cost will vary from one spin bike to the other. But you should not mistake price for the quality and therefore assume that the most expensive is the best. Of course, quality comes at a cost. When shopping for the best spin bike, first identify your training need before you check the price.

While having a computerized console can help you monitor and track your progress, it can add to the cost of the bike, making it expensive. If you are considering a basic bike for the home with a minimal budget, you may want to consider bikes without those features.

Computer console and entertainment features – if you can’t live without them

Most spin bikes come with a console that shows the distance, time, speed, heart pulse, and calories burned. This is useful to track how consistent you are with your workout and the progress made

Bottle holder

When you are exercising, you need to keep cool and hydrated. You don’t want to break your work out session to get water in the dispenser. A bottle holder is an important yet largely ignored feature of the best spin bike. The holder should be within arms reach to avoid distracting your focus when working out.

However, being pregnant also raises plenty of questions, especially in regard to exercise and maintaining a healthy lifestyle – you know you should do it, but you are also unsure of whether you are pushing your body too much or whether you are in the safe limit that will not harm you or the baby.

However, among the safest exercises for pregnant women happens to be cycling. It has low impact, which will not tire you out more than you should, and you will enjoy using a stationary bike in a gym setting or signing up for a spinning class. All of these benefits are still attainable in your pregnant state, and you do not need to give them up. In particular, you will find that stationary bikes make things easier for you are you progress in the pregnancy, especially when it comes to maintaining your balance, and you will not experience too much fatigue at the end of the session.

Why exercise is important during pregnancy

There are many benefits that you get when you follow a regular exercise routine. Here are some of them:

It boosts your energy levels

Pregnancy is among the factors that will sap your energy, but engaging in physical activity regularly when helps you to get through the day. This is because it will strengthen the cardiovascular system, which means that you do not tire out as easily. You will also not need to put in much effort to engage in activities, whether you are going to the office for meetings or going to shop for household items.

Helps you sleep better

It becomes more challenging to get a good night’s sleep, especially as the pregnancy progresses. However, exercise is enough to send you to restful sleep.

Reduces the chances of you developing complications

There are plenty of studies that reveal that exercise reduces the risk of pregnancy conditions such as preeclampsia and gestational diabetes. In case you already have these conditions, make sure to talk to your doctor about exercise, and they can advise you on what to do as well as whether you should limit your physical activity.

Reduces discomfort

Your muscles will become stronger the more you engage them in exercises, which help the body to withstand the pains of pregnancy. For instance, yoga and stretching will reduce your back pain, swimming strengthens the abdominal muscle, and walking boosts your blood circulation.

Useful tips for cycling during pregnancy

• It is always important to let your instructor know that you are pregnant during your cycling sessions – even more so when the baby bump is not obvious yet. This is to cover your tracks in case you need to slip more into the bathroom for breaks, you need to take it easier on yourself, or you require to drink some extra water.
• If you are not used to spinning, it is important to build up slowly. For instance, do not get into a half-hour cycling session when you are new to the whole thing, even if your aim is to get at least 30 minutes of pregnancy fitness in a day. Aim to increase your fitness and timing slowly, until the idea of a full session is comfortable enough for you to handle.
• Make sure to dress in moisture-wicking and comfortable workout clothes for maximum comfort
• Keep a bottle of water near you and take regular sips as much as possible. It is very important, especially when you are pregnant, to stay hydrated – so make sure to drink water before, after and during your sessions.
• If you are gasping for breath during or after a session, then slow down your intensity. Even though the gym is not the best place to have a chat with others, you should still be able to talk – the golden rule here is to ‘never exercise so hard that you cannot talk afterwards’.
• Get to the gym a few minutes early before your spin class begins, in order to make necessary adjustments on your bike. These can include the handlebars that should be in a more upright position to allow for more space for your baby bump, as well as the seat to avoid stressing your lower back.
• Resist the idea of competing with other people in your class, and do not even think about improving your personal best. You will get stressed out and discouraged if you fail to improve (which is bad for your health and the baby), or you will easily give up if you see you are not matching up to the pace of others. The main goal of exercise during pregnancy is maintaining your fitness, not competing or improving on personal bests.
• Never exercise while on an empty stomach – remain fueled at all times. In addition, always have a light snack ready for your post-class session, such as energy balls, a granola bar, or bananas.
• For maximum comfort during the session, you can remain seated. Standing up can lead to other problems if you are not careful – it adds pressure to the joints, increases the intensity of the exercises, and makes it harder for you to balance well. However, if you feel you have sat for too long and need some breathers, then standing up is good – but only for a few minutes at a time.
• If you do not feel like doing a spin class, you can try other low-impact activities like yoga, swimming, or taking walks. The most important thing is taking it easy on yourself, as your body is in a state of fluctuation and it needs all the help it can get to adjust.

Final thoughts

Pregnancy brings some exciting changes, but it is important to ensure you are healthy throughout the process if you want to make it easier. Fortunately, cycling is among the low-impact exercises that can help you maintain your fitness, and it will strengthen you and ensure you remain healthy and energetic enough to go through the rest of the day.

You might assume you are ready for a spinning session with your bike, but it quickly becomes a torturous session when the bike has incorrect adjustments because it gets so uncomfortable to use. It seems simple enough when you first hear your instructor telling you the guidelines on making your seat as comfortable as possible: making sure the seat is at the height of your waist, and bending the knees slightly as you pedal.

However, the truth is that adjustment of your seat does not just involve these things. Making minor adjustments too will go a long way to making your pinning experience much mr0e comfortable, and it makes a major difference on your performance. Incorrect positioning of any part will result in your joints experiencing undue pressure, as well as pain in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons.

In order to make the most from your experience on the bike, here are some tips to help you adjust the things you need to.

Always use your hip bone as a guide for seat adjustments

Initially, you should make adjustments in the seat, and it depends on your height. As a general rule, always use your hip bone as a guide to adjusting the seat. You just need to go to it, stand adjacent to the seat, and make adjustments as necessary.

Find the section of your hips that protrudes out, and then align the top of the seat with the bone. However, if you cannot feel this bone, raise your leg up to a point where your thigh is completely parallel to the floor and see if you can feel it.

Hop on the bike and see how your legs pedal

If you want to test the seat and make sure it is at the correct height, hop on the bike, and note the positioning of your feet when you are pedaling. If the seat height is correct, your leg should almost extend completely at the knee, and this should correspond with the balls of your feet resting on the pedals – the knees should never overextend or have significant angles.

If you are not sure though, you can ask your instructor to help you find the correct setting for your height (which is why you need to arrive early before your class starts). Different instructors will have their own guidelines on how much bending they recommend, but the usual angle will be a maximum of between 5 and 35 degrees.

This angle is very important because you can experience pain when your knees are too bent, as they are experiencing a lot of strain. On the other hand, a seat that is too high will result in your pubic bone pressing too hard into the seat and causing pain in this area. It also makes it very difficult for you to maintain a flat position of your feet while pedaling, and forces the calves to over-engage. The calves do not have as much efficiency as the glutes, so it reduces the efficiency of your workout.

Ensure the knees are aligned correctly over your feet

While you are on the bike, place your hands on the handlebars. Slowly, turn the pedals until the knees are completely bent and your feet are about equal distances from the ground. Imagine a string that is suspended in the air and it hangs from the knees and has a stone tied at its end – this stone must reach the middle of your cycling shoe clip, or the ball of your foot.

If the knee is too far behind your foot, pull the seat forward towards the handlebars slightly, or pull it slightly back in case it is too far in front.

Adjust the handlebars

The handlebars are just as important as the seat, since they are supporting your arms and elbows, so it is important to pay attention to them too. There are certain bikes that will allow you to move the handlebars closer or farther away, but some will not, so make sure to check.

When you have made the necessary adjustments to the seat, you might want to move the handlebars if they are too far or too close. The ideal position is a slight bend in the elbows when your hands are in front of the handlebars. Avoid a scrunched up position or having your arms extend forward too much, because that means your back is slouching too much, and you are hurting your lower back.

On the other hand, the height of the handlebars comes down to personal preferences. Many people prefer it being at the height of the seat or higher – if you are experiencing any issues with your hips or back, or happen to be a new user, for instance, the handlebars need to be slightly higher to guard the back from slouching.

Check your body posture

The adjustments you are making should allow your body to operate in a biomechanically efficient position – straight back, and the elbows slightly bent, for maximum efficiency.

Even though all these adjustments sound complicated, the good news is that many bikes will keep the numbers that are associated with the position of your handlebars and seat. Make sure to note them down, and you can use this information to make quick adjustments the next time you attend your spinning session.

Your grip on the handlebars needs to be relaxed and loose to prevent muscle tension in your arms and shoulders. The most common hand positions you might hear are:

• Prayer position – both the palms of your hands are on the back bar, and slightly away from the center
• Second position – your hands are on the outer edges of the bars, slightly above the corners
• Third position = the hands are outside, slightly below the top of the handlebars. However, avoid wrapping your hands on them because it causes your shoulders to slouch

Final thoughts

These guidelines should cover all the basics and help you stay comfortable as you ride. If you are not sure about them though, always ask for help – and remember that the first few sessions will leave your body feeling uncomfortable as you get used to everything, even if you do all the correct adjustments. After a few sessions though, you should be comfortable enough to find your way.

Spin bikes are great equipment to maintain your health, especially when you are busy and cannot afford the time to go to the gym. They are also gentle on your body. However, they can be expensive and getting a good bike for less than 500 dollars can be a daunting task.

Have you been asking whether you can get a good spin bike without spending thousands of dollars? The answer is a resounding yes. Yes, you can.

Spin bikes have become extremely popular and to meet the demand; the market has become saturated with cheap bikes that are unstable and poor in performance. We understand that you don’t have thousands of dollars to spend on a high-end bike, on the other hand, we see your determination to own a spin bike that will help you achieve your health targets. That’s is why we have spent hours to review these bikes so you can be a proud owner of a bike that is cheap, comfortable, stable, and functional.

What to Consider When Purchasing a Spin Bike Under 500

FlyWheel

The flywheel is the wheel located at the front side of a spin bike. It is connected to the pedal by either a belt drive or a chain so that when you pedal you make the flywheel rotate.

When you are buying a spin bike, you must pay close attention to the weight of the flywheel. The weight of the wheel affects the quality of your ride and work-out in general. It is popularly accepted that a heavy flywheel gives you a natural smooth ride.

A light flywheel can make your pedalling shaky, subject your joints to enormous pressure, and make you prone to injury. On the other side, a heavy flywheel gives you a smooth riding experience and prevent your joints from injury. Besides, large and heavy flywheel demands more efforts to turn when working, which makes them ideal for strength training. Most spin bikes come with a flywheel of 30lbs to 50lbs.

Seat and Handle Adjustment

Even when you are shopping for a bike under 500, you shouldn’t compromise on comfort. The adjustability of the seat and handlebar determines how much you can adjust the bike to accommodate your body structure. Spin bikes come with seats that are adjustable in 4 ways; up, down and sideways. However, most users will be content will one that is adjustable up and down only.

An adjustable handlebar is also crucial for changing the height so it can accommodate your body when standing or leaning.

If the spin bike is going to be used by different people, ensure you get a bike that has an adjustable seat and handlebar. This allows adjustment to be made to fit every member, whether small or big.

Resistance

Resistance is the most critical feature of a spin bike – It is what determines the value you get from your work-out. We have two types of resistance, namely magnetic and frictional. Friction resistance has a pad touching the flywheel while in magnetic resistance, a magnet moves near to the flywheel. However, in magnetic resistance, the magnet doesn’t touch the wheel – which is great because it does not cause noise nor tear and wear.

A quality bike will have multiple resistance levels. This allows you to reduce or intensify your work-out at your pace. Also, a good bike should have adjustable resistance that let you adjust the tension progressively – it should not take you from easy to difficult abruptly.

When you think of resistance, think of changing gear on an outdoor bike. Changing gears makes the bike easy or difficult to pedal. In the same way, look for a spin bike that enables you to set resistance from easy to hard smoothly and quickly.

Display and Statistics

Most spin bikes come with LCD monitors. This digital display helps you track time, distance, speed, and Calories Burned During Your Work-out. These statistics can be useful in monitoring your progress.

Ease of Movement

Most spin bikes come with transportation wheel to make it easy for you to set up and remove after work-out to create space. If you have limited space and require to move the bike after every work-out, then you should check whether it has wheels.
