The exercise bike has been used most days for the 6 weeks since we bought it by all 3 members of the household (30 to 70, male and female) for periods up to 45 minutes at a time. It was relatively easy to assemble; since then we have had 1 pedal come off and 1 (pre-assessmbled) crank come loose. Otherwise it is stable and robust.
There are two down-sides which prevent me awarding 5-stars (given the relatively low price of the equipment).
First, as others have noted, the range of seat heights is limited. I like to stretch my legs when cycling on the road – this is not possible on this trainer if you are 5 feet 9 inches or taller. One can argue that the greater bending of the knee associated with the low maximum seat height gives more of a work-out, however, it would be good if the manufacturer could provide an extension to raise the seat height further.
Second, the on-board pulse reading is erratic, at least on our bike, and can deter older people such as myself, from making full use of the exercise bike. I have just calibrated ours using a recently acquired Garmin device – correct pule rate 118 – bike pulse rate 198!
If you want a basic bike trainer the XS Sports B210 provides good value, with the two caveats above.
Easy to put together. I think one of the pedals wouldnt go on unless I tightened it up by turning it the opposite way …must have beed threaded back to front. Initially the pedal movement was a bit uneven but after a day or 2 it settled down. Height is great for me 5ft 3 and probably anyone up to 5ft 10 ish. I think if you were 6ft plus you would find it too small. I dont use the meter readings ….i just put on a youtue cycling video and pedal in front of that for half an hour and it suits me fine. I store it behind a chair in the living room…you hardly know it’s there …..Jill
I like this machine because of its versatility, its there whenever you choose and the workout can be as hard or easy as you want. I love it.
As this was my 1st purchase of an exercise bike for home use, I have to say that so far I have been pleasantly surprised. Although not in the same league as a bike you might expect to use in a gym, it has proven to be just right for daily home use . Easy enough to assemble, though I would do so with an additional person just to make it easier . As I mentioned earlier this bike cant compare to that of a gym bike but for all that its a great for 10;20;30 minute sessions . A small computer enables reads out time ,speed , distance . calories and pulse . How precise these are I wouldn’t know but they seem pretty close to the mark. It’s sturdy enough and folds easily enough to store away in a cupboard if necessary, but as its in use every day we have had no need to . Seat adjustment works a higher setting would be an improvement . Im 5ft 10 which is fine for me but could be an issue for anyone over 6ft . There are not gear settings as such ,just a plus or minus dial to turn clockwise or anti clockwise. I’ve had it at the most difficult setting , which is fine for me but probably wont feel like much of a gradient for a more seasoned cyclist. Price wise I think this is good value for money though . No problems so far being put to use .
Plastic cover on front of pedal box was not in place when unpacked. Anybody. With little diy skills would not have been able to reposition it without breaking it.
Otherwise item was easy to assemble and very sturdy when completed .
Would be helpful if a more comfortable saddle could be fitted.
Some bits missing from package so couldn’t assemble on day of delivery. Contacted supplier who sent the parts by post. Very courteous and quick service. Now its assembled, I’m impressed. Really quiet compared to exercise bikes I’ve had before, hubby didn’t even realise I was exercising! Looks good, feels secure and fits perfectly in corner of room. Relatively easy to move it about too so don’t have to exercise in same spot every day. Just the job.
Paid 79, have used frequently (as have my children) – 30 minutes per day average between 15-16km per day at 25-35km/h. Apart from a particularly hard seat this was a great purchase for those looking to get some MODERATE INTENSITY aerobic activity in. Folds neatly away. I have not ridden the bike at speeds >35km/h so can’t comment on uses for ‘spinning et al’. Resistance levels are fine for me

It’s easy to Assmbly but I feel it’s very week but for short time I can use and the seat not confrtabel but it’s ok
I am 80 years old, in good health and with a background in sport at both amateur and professional levels. The current Covid epidemic has imposed so many limitations, especially for older people. If I cannot go out as much and do the things I am used to doing I need something for indoor activity to maintain good health and fitness.
The answer has been this amazing folding, stationary exercise bike. It is safe for older users and very easy to operate. It is situated in my bedroom, so access is unlimited.
Very good value for money, too!

Electronic display doesn’t work and saddle uncomfortable apart from that good value for money
I’m waiting for a knee operation and was told cycling would be a good form of exercise. The product is really sturdy and I haven’t needed a mat/rug for it, it’s also really quiet. I have found the display really useful to. Would definately recommend this product and my knee is feeling pretty good too.
looked at various other makes but arrived at this purchase because of positive reviews on this and other sites.amazon gave the best value for this bike and the delivery and sales info. was a1.well pleased with the exercise
bike,easy to assemble and really efficient programmes.
Good produce for cost. It’s a fold away, so it will not be like feel like a normal bike (standing cycling is not possible). The original seat is incredibly uncomfortable and required another purchase to resolve

Very easy to assemble, took me less than 5 minutes to put it together. Easy to fold and put away. I should also add you get a small bag of parts but some of the parts are already attached, so if you think you’re missing any bolts, washers or screws, check the frame/stabilisers of the bike.
It’s a solid, sturdy bike and just what I needed. The computer monitor works fine and the resistance is perfect for my work out.
Delivered within 24 hours. Assembly was straight forward just the left peddle took a little doing before realised its a reverse thread ! Used it everyday, Feels solid enough for me and my hubby, is easy to fold although a little unsteady when folder and left upright, however on the whole I am satisfied. It does what it says on the tin.
I ordered the bike Wed lunchtime and it arrived Fri lunchtime! I also contacted the seller by email Sun evening as I had broken the computer holder (my fault) and they replied Mon morning and the new part arrived Tue at no cost – great service!
The bike was easy to assemble following the clear instructions and is very sturdy. The seat is amazingly comfortable. I have used the bike on five occasions now and although it seems rather upright at first ( I suppose this is a feature of all folding bikes) I have got used to this new position and feel comfortable using it.
There are a couple of negative points that I need to mention. The bike is quite noisy compared to other exercise bikes I have ridden and I am not sure about it’s suitability for a taller person. My inside leg is about 29″ and I have the seat on the highest setting and would ideally like it one notch higher, so it might not be suitable for anyone much taller. This is the reason it has not got a 5* rating. Maybe someone with longer legs can comment on this.
Anyway so far I am very happy with the bike.
A perfect gift for my father who needed a new exercise bike. It was easy to assemble and looks great. Nice and compact, easy to fold and store so it doesn’t need much space. My father loves it so would definitely recommend.
I wanted something light and easy enought to store out of the way in a one-bed apartment. This had good reviews and had the functions I needed so I went ahead and purchased, and i’m so glad I did! It arrived about 4 days before estimated by Amazon, and I put it together in about 15 minutes by myself.
Instructions are clear and all bits are super simple to fit together. Bike feels sturdy and not like you’re about to fall over, and whilst it’s still a tiny bit heavy for me I would rather that than not feel safe whilst using it! Folds up slim enough so should be easy to store too.
Highly recommend.

Product for small people!
I am 1.50 cm tall and it’s good! But my boyfriend that is tall 1.84 needs to use with a pillow!!!
Pretty happy with this, cinch to put together and the device folds away quite tidily. My last exercise bike was not foldable and had to go as it took up too much room however this has stayed in the kitchen despite my original intension to keep it in the shed. Even with that its sturdy enough, haven’t whacked it up to full resistance however I’m using it for light exercise. I imagine if you’re large of frame or want a hard work out this may not suit, but does the job for me.
Very good price / quality bike. Very quiet, I like in a flat and I was concerned it would be noisy for my neighbours downstairs but no, it is not. The only thing is that I couldn’t get the counter to work but it’s ok.
Overall, I’m very pleased with this bike so far. It folds away so neatly that I can store it in a corner of our lounge. At first I thought the computer was faulty but we had fitted the plugs into the wrong sockets – this was not intuitive, and we have had to fix the computer as close to the left handlebar as possible in order for the wires to reach. As a non-cyclist for most of my life, I’m finding the saddle very hard but I’ve had the bike for less than a week so I’ll no doubt get used to it. It’s basic but seems good value for money.
My bike arrived 10 days earlier than anticipated and the staff at XS Sports were really helpful.
I was very grateful to receive it as my knees are suffering with all the walking I am doing instead of going to the gym or swimming regularly during the lockdown. The bike didn’t take long to make and it is sturdy, easy to move and the pedals move smoothly. I would have liked the seat to go slightly higher but its okay.
The tension wheel is effective and the computer works fine.
I am not a regular cyclist so I will not be pedalling frantically but I am enjoying using it on our balcony for exercise during the lockdown.

Recovering from hip op this bike is perfect for getting hip rotation back.
Amazing value.
BUT I’m 5′ 9″ – I would not recommend for taller user OR any very keen cyclists. Its a sturdy machine for the money For use at home but not a full gym trainer replacement.
Honestly I didnt expect much of this being an avid gym goer and having seen/used other people’s home excercise bikes. The XS folding bike is great, it’s different to the gym bikes but in a good way. Very comfortable seat and seating position?n smooth movement and good levels of resistance. Would highly recommend as a home exercise bike with the benefit of being light yet strong and easily put away. Thumbs up from us.
Arrived quickly and well packed, easy to assemble.
It is very compact which is great and works well.
Only negatives are that the saddle is a little on the low side if you are over 180cm – and the resistance adjustment is hardly noticeable. However, there is good resistance generally so good for a workout.

I am 85 and can’t get out as often as I would like due to failing eyesight. I was sceptical, but I needn’t have worried. My wonderful sons assembled it in 15 minutes. I am mostly surprised at how quiet it is, which means I don’t need to turn the TV or radio up. I can watch an episode of Columbo whilst on this and the time flies by. It takes up very little room, which is another bonus.
Personally, I don’t use the control panel, as I can’t read the display. I also took the straps off as I struggled to get my feet in them.
If you are a gym-bunny, used to using gym bikes, this probably isn’t going to be enough for you in my opinion, unless you want to do easier, but longer stints.
For the price, I don’t think you can get a better bike and I use it daily. My wife has even used it and she is impressed.
Arrived quickly, easy to assemble, sturdy and well made. Ideal for my small home, folds and fits into hall cupboard.
just trying the bike now was assembled quite easily,the only downsize i would say is the computer thingy,not working but its not important to me,great product for the price.
Really pleased with this exercise bike. Easy to put together, very sturdy and great levels of resistance, and folds away easily.
Easy to use and store. Sturdy and reliable. Easy to increase resistance levels. Clear screen to monitor performance
I’m fat and need to get fit. Holds my weight very well. Good for tall people too.
Very easy to put up.
Tip. Put it somewhere you can see it, or even somewhere you will trip over it, is good idea. Near the fridge will do.
Putting it in the back bedroom doesn’t work.
I wasn’t sure if this would be sturdy enough given the price but it definitely is. It also takes up very little space. Just the job.
The seat is comfy
I didnt exspect to get a massive workout as used to the proper bikes
But still impressed
If your a beginner or looking to do some light exercise then this is the bike for you.
Arrived quickly and very easy to assemble.
There were a couple of screws missing with my order however the seller sent the missing parts out within a few days.
Good Customer Service and a great little bike to help me lose those dreaded few pounds
Would highly recommend!

Really great if you want to start getting fit. The bike is really small when folded away so doesn’t take up much room at all – which I found out six months ago when I moved it to the corner of the living room and haven’t moved it back since (oops)
After a few uses you will get used to the peddle pressure even on max setting, still useful but you’ll need to use something else for a heavier workout.
Easy to assemble and fold away. A suede piece of equipment that is very quiet when in use. I would like to know how accurate distance counter is – I seem to cover a greater distance in the time than I expected! Great value for money when starting out with a home machine. I worked out that I only need to use it 10 times before I cover the cost in relation to visits to the gym!

Best bike i ever had.second time i ordered it cause last one i had for almost two years i completely destroyed by biking hard everyday. But this bike is the best bike you can get for this price.easy to assemble, doesnt take a lot of space.
Works well, easy to put together. Folds away into the cupboard with ease. I’m 6 foot and weigh 90kg and this feels sturdy enough for me.
Word of advice, invest in a soft cushiony seat for it….
Spent about 5 minutes reading the instructions and checking all the parts were present then it took just 25 minutes for me to get the bike assembled. I felt a little daunted when I first opened the box and saw it in pieces but very proud of my success at putting it together. Do Zumba twice a week and wanted something else to do at home – I this is great as I don’t require all the cycling gear and it doesn’t matter if weather is bad outside, but I can still get the exercise done. I am well chuffed with it!
This is a great exercise bike sturdy and good quality.
Arrived ahead of time. A doddle to assemble. Comfortable. No problem with adjusting height for me and the Mrs. No problem with the computer. Quiet. Works really well. Read the reviews by fellow buyers of this product before I bought this. A great product for a nice price. It’s not too heavy either, and folds away nicely, which is what the Mrs wanted. It takes more than 100kg and is ideal for my height.

Item delivered promptly. Required very little assembly with supplied tools and large easy to read instructions. Everything works fine and equal to machines costing twice as much. I had a small technical query which was answered efficiently by JJ on the customer support team. A very satisfied customer.
Very easy to put together – took me about 20 minutes to unpack and assemble on my own. The only thing I’ve found so far is the seat could do with extra padding as it’s a bit hard – especially on the sides.
I’m hoping this is going to help me get my exercise levels up as my current job is not within walking distance of home so I’ve lost my hour of pounding the pavement each day that I had with my previous job.
Easy to assemble ….yes do be aware of the opposite thread thing when fitting the pedals i am an engineer and i didn’t work it out for a few mins .. took about 15 mins to assemble..strong very sturdy piece of kit well worth the money .
Wanted a bike machine but I needed one at a reasonable price. I’ve had this for about five months now and it still works great. I read other reviews about the screen not working but I switched over the cables on the first day of usage and it seems this is the way they should be as it has always worked well for me. Really happy with this!
Bit small for someone 6+foot but is quiet and works really well. folds up easily and unfolds easily.
Nice basic compact exercise bike … now just have to use it regularly. If you have limited space this is a great buy
Prompt delivery service, easy assembly, great product. Nice and sturdy and slim design, easily folds away, so doesn’t take up a lot of space. Comfortable saddle and good to use. Really works well. Followed the exercise instructions and saw results straight away. Definitely would recommend for anyone.
Have gotten some good use out of this bike and its certainly good for what I need it for.
Only issues I have had are the seat can get uncomfortable after using it a while, its not very padded. Also a couple of times now the right peddle has came loose.
Really pleased with it,husband set up for me, we will both use i think. It feels sturdy and is easy to fold up and put away. Adjustable resistance, i set to high and really felt it on my legs. Im a novice to the bikes but not finding time between work and young kids to get out an exercise myself, this is an ideal solution for me i can do it in evenings (and still watch tv:) delivery was quick to north Scotland and everything came as it should.
Don’t be like me, read the manual. I spent ages trying to get one of the pedals on only to realise that it is threaded in reverse! The bike itself is smooth and compact. It even fits under my sit/stand desk for a pedal while working scenario that I’m yet to regularly enact!
This was bought for my wife. IT was very easy to put together, with the tools supplied to complete the job. Very sturdy. She is very pleased with it. Good value. Delivery was very quick.
Have had this bike only a few days, but very happy with it so far. Easy to put together, and extremely sturdy. As we’re no longer spring chickens and can’t walk as much as we used to, thought this piece of kit would supplement very well. It’s comfortable to use, and the resistance adjuster is very handy. Given four stars as the only slight quibble with it is the seemingly less-than-perfect monitor, but can do our own timing, and will be able to tell for ourselves if it’s doing us good !
Love it. I’m not a little fitty at all I’m a heavy girl, but my god do I love this. I van watch TV whilst I’m on it, and not even realise I’ve done 5miles. Plus you can adjust the resistance to your liking and it folds away so neatly, it’s not big and bulky at all.
This is a really sturdy excercise bike for the money. I was quite impressed!
The only thing about the bike i don’t like is the position of the seat, it’s slanted backwards and there’s no way to change that. It would be a five star rating otherwise. I had a problem with the display as well (i didn’t work!) but that is now working fine thanks to XS Sports. I contacted them and they were quick to respond and there help fixed the problem, so thanks to them.
Arrived quickly – excellent sturdy product, easy to assemble. I have just one problem – I cannot seem to get the distance counter to work. All the others do (and I’m not really bothered about those).I have followed the instructions bot the zero stays resolutely on the little screen. Any hints?

Only cons I have are that the pulse rate is quite inaccurate, and the frame is only just large enough for me at about 6ft. If you are much taller than this, it probably won’t be big enough for you.
Very easy to assemble. Took 15mins approx.
Takes up very little space.
Easy to adjust resistance.
Very quiet when in use.
Computer easy to use.
Seat tad uncomfortable but will get use to it.
Gives a good workout to me.
I assembled the bike myself and the instructions were clear and easy to follow.
The bike is sturdy, comes very compact when folded and easy to store away.
There has been some questions about size fitting. I am not a tall lady as I am 5.1 but I can say that petite ladies like me can use this bike comfortably adjusting the seat at the lowest level. There is option to adjust the seat at different levels to suit also much taller people.
The bike is nice to use and I the tension can be set to how hard we are ready to ride. I start with a gentle ride and then rise the tension to work a bit harder as per my liking.
I really recommend this bike as this is a very good purchase. Also the seller does a very good follow up of the order from processing to delivering and post delivery.
Fantastic buy at a fantastic price! The only reason I am not giving it five points is because the seat is very uncomfortable for me but that will soon be remedied with a cushion cover of sorts hopefully.
