I purchased the bike in April 2014 for my husband who has Parkinson's Disease. Sinceh he uses it only for 10 minutes twice a day, I do not know whether it will last for a tough workout.

It's a great machine. The only thing that I don't like is that the seat is very uncomfortable. I bought an expensive gell seat but still, after a few minutes on the bike the sitting hurts me.

I don't have the bike. They sent it out to me twice and both times it was damaged.

Yes! I'm exhausted after 30! :). It's really a nice bike. I use a bigger , separate fan though.

Had it for 3 years; I still get up on it 3 times a week and do my workout. i think that says it all.

That sounds like a long time to be sitting on any exercise bike seat. It has been fine for me, in my 1 1/2 hour sessions.

From their website: "We offer a full 3 year parts replacement guarantee for all moving parts on your FitDesk Exercise Bike. Shipping will be buyers responsiblity. However, we can offer our discount to save on the parts delivery. Due to the fact that it is the buyers responsiblity to properly assemble and maintain by checking and tightening the pedals to the crank arms these parts are NOT covered under our warranty beyond 30 days." I will add that their customer service is more than helpful and they will go out of their way to help you with any problem or question you may encounter. The FitDesk is solid and well made. I still love mine.

I am 290 and I use it about 20 minute a day not very hard. It seems like a really sturdy machine. Its not as sturdy as the industrial machine at the gym nor does it glide as smoothly as the one at the gym. Been using it for only 2 weeks so far no problems. I have had problems with elliptical machines in the past, it was because I was using them on carpet with a few boards underneath it the machine rocked back and forth and I think that is why none of my previous machines lasted long. Put in on a level hard surface if you can and make sure you adjust it the best you can I am sure the machine will be fine for you. I am 290 and I use it about 20 minute a day not very hard.

I just bought mine before Christmas. So, I have just a few days to ride it. But, I do like what I have seen so far. This being my second year to compete in triathlon, I think this is going to be a good bike for me for this year. Compared to my first triathlon bike, it's a lot lighter in weight and handles well! I hope this helps your decision.

While it's working it is smooth has very good tension settings , very good cardio workout. However like I said in my review it only lasted six weeks before it started scraping and was useless after 2 months of use. I did 23 miles every other day , maybe that was to much, I don't know. If you get it, good luck !

My wife still has her's. Anything specific you would like to know? It's fairly durable, snd I think we are closing in on our 2 year mark. Doesn't elevate a whole lot. Folds up nicely in the garage. Pretty good treadmill overall. My wife would purchase it again, if given the option.

I got this bike for my son's 4th birthday and it has been great! It is really durable and sturdy. He loves it and goes everywhere in it. Hope this helps.

With regular use it should last awhile. Mine has rubbed off but that is because it gets put in a bike bottle cage everyday.

It took both my son and daughter to carry it in...awkward more than anything...but the bike is solid as a rock! I've ridden it since October and love it. I'm up around 245 and it take my weight easily. I do recommend keeping the air pressure at 60lbs or higher...it not only rides better, but the tires won't wear as fast. WTMI? Sorry :-)

Mine is holding up great. Haven't had to change the pads yet. I've only put new, wider pedals on it (Moove), better grips (Moove), and a better fork on it; Manitou Tower Pro. Other than that, just put some slime tubes in it.

no, but it is a very good piece of equipment once you get passed the sore bum phase. Has a gym bike feel very durable. I'm over 200lbs(fit) use it every day past 10mos no loose/faulty parts performs the same as it did the day I got it.

One of the other original reviews I read was of someone who worked at gym and mentioned that although it doesn't compete with $1000-2000+ bikes, it was still built to last longer - and work better than a plastic thing, and came close enough to a $1000+ machine.
