It can be used for cycling, but don't buy Garmin's bike sensor for the 205 as it won't work.

Thanks BAN. Yeah I'm a hobbyist when it comes to cycling, so I'm sure the GPS will be able to pick me up on the roads . I know there are apps and such for Android / iPhone that do similar things, but I think this looks like a nice unit.

Have you tried this product yet for cycling? I'm getting this as a gift for a cyclist...

If you're a heavy-duty cyclist, they have products specifically for cycling where you can enter the bike's weight and all sorts of other data, but as you've already discovered this can also be used for cycling. We've also used ours on hikes to measure how far we've walked. Can have some trouble getting a signal in some areas of the woods, though.

I think I just answered my own question... in the technical details it says:"Used for multiple sports, such as cycling, cross- country skiing, and windsurfing"

I have not tried to use it during a workout. Based on the pressure that it exerts on my head, it probably is ok for rowing or a stationary bike, but anything requiring much head movement might be trouble.

Yes you sure can. I use to teach spin and you can do any move on it that you normally do in a spin class from sprinting, to standing up, to increasing the tension, decreasing the tension, etc. It is a great little bike that does everything you need for a great workout!

I don't think this device is intended to be used during active exercise. It clamps gently on a fingertip and will give you pulse rate and oxygen level readings. There may be artifacts while you're moving and can easily be dislodged from the fingertip. You can use it intermittently when you pause or step off the treadmill. Comes with a cord to hang it around your neck for easy access.

I am not sure. I use my bike to get a good workout and good sweat. You might have to look into seperate apps for that.

Dude... sorry, just not worth it to wear headphones while cycling. Add headphones to the sound of wind, and you won't hear cars, trains, dogs etc...

I don't use it for jogging, but I think you can. Look at this: http://www.burley.com/page_135

It can, but very awkward. It is waste of time with this bike I am sorry that I bought it because the seat is so hard and pain your buttock. I hope this was helpful. unable to exercise long. Only for 10 minutes.

I bought mine specifically for exercising. They work great for me. I walk, bike ride, Yoga, and use weights and a treadmill.

I use it for weight training, the elliptical (when I have to use it), running and Insanity/Asylum/T25 videos. I am a long distance runner by nature and habit. I have had no issues switching among activities with accurate heart rate, time, calories etc.

Yes, you can! I've been using this along with a table as an exercise desk for a few weeks and I love it. While I don't do 8 hour days while pedaling, I can pedal for hours while working on my laptop, reading, etc. My kids will even use it and pedal while the play video games or watch T.V. (We have it in the family room, so people will use it.) The only drawback, the seat is a little uncomfortable.

Nadia I think quite honestly unless you are a professional cyclist you will not out pedal this machine. There is a resistance knob which controls the effort in pedaling.

I don't see why not, I take it during long wrestling and mma workouts. Any workouts where a loss of sweat occurs for an extended period of times would be fine to use this product.

Hi Amy, if you have it on the last setting than that's the best you're going to get. I'm having the same problem too. I Decided to use the rower for muscle building/toning and get my cardio on recumbent bike. Of course there are other ways to get cardio exercises. I hope this helps.Good luck, Frank

It would defeat the purpose not to purchase bike shoes. You get a better work out with them. Far more control and you work the legs throughout the entire rotation.
