Marcy Magnetic Upright Bike

Purchase this upright in 2020 at the start of the pandemic when my gym closed. According to my husband it was easy to assemble. I rode it almost every day until I went back to the gym this year (2021). Just as sturdy now as it was when I started riding it last year. I plan to still ride it when the weather gets to bad for me to make it to the gym.

I purchased this several years ago before it was available on, I’d had knee surgery and needed something to help with rehabbing. Was just what I was looking for!!!!

I had been looking at stationary bikes for about a year, and many things prevented me from buying one. I was looking for something less than $200 with varying resistance levels and a digital display. After reading countless reviews on, I decided to try this one. I've been on it 30 min per day everyday since I've gotten it (almost a week ago) and I'm already seeing results. I mainly bought this bike because it's small, we don't have a basement and our extra room is the guest room so I have it in the living room and it's light enough to move to the closet when I have company. With a 7 month old baby, it's perfect for me to get a quick ride in during the day. It's quiet and has 8 levels of resistance. If it could have somehow had a heartrate monitor I would have given 5 stars. But it is definitely worth it, I totally recommend this bike, it would be perfect for someone living in an apartment as well!

I have owned this bike for since early 2014 (from another store prior to selling it). I needed some form of no-impact exerciser after a hospital stay to rebuild strength and stamina while standing on my feet was an issue and my cardiovascular risk very high. This bike was super easy to set up in less than 20 minutes, it is super smooth and quiet so I can pedal at any time of day/night with no worries about disturbing neighbours in an apartment building, and now after years of pedaling an average of 60-65 miles per week I can say it is well built and pretty sturdy. It still runs smoothly as the day it arrived and I can't believe that no maintenance was ever needed, no tightening, no greasing, I just wipe the seat and handlebar and dust it regularly. I like that it has enough levels of resistance that I can still get a nice challenge so that High-intensity Interval Training is easy to do. The bike is light to move around in the apt. so I sometime use it pointed at my desk PC while following some cycling videos on Youtube. In short, it is an excellent bike that can take you from easy to very challenging workouts as you care to design for yourself. I have attached my own water bottle holder and play music out of my old fashion MP3 player so I can pedal with the comfort features similar to those offered by more expensive machines on the market. I like that it has a timer, speed and mile/km counter, and an odometer, it also keeps count of calories but I really only check the calories counter on my heart rate monitor, as we know that no counter on any exercise machine is ever accurate. The only minor critique I have is for the total mileage counter (odometer), as it re-sets itself to zero any time you have to change the batteries in the computer so my 1000+ miles disappear and it feels frustrating to be starting at zero again. But that's just me, my competitive self that would like to be reminded, especially on tough days, of how many thousand miles I have come along; and that is just a wish, not a necessity for a good workout.

I just put this bike together in about 45 minutes on my kitchen floor. Whoever packed it was a genius. It was in a small box and I can't believe how well its packed. The directions were perfect and easy to follow. I think for the price, its great. Not as smooth as those in the gym of course, but perfect for my use.
