We looked for a long time for a bike that was comfortable to use and we have not been disappointed. The bike is excellent and is exactly what we were looking for. My husband has restricted mobility and it will help him enormously to keep his joints mobile.
Good bike, quiet and easy to set up and use.

First the seat and back rest should be padded, after a few minutes on this, a cushion is required, so put one on first!
Some people state that it hasn’t enough resistance on the higher settings, but I feel sure that after several minutes on the high setting they will not find it so easy, unless they are keen cyclists already, and well used to hard work.
It’s really compact which is great but I’m 5’11 with size 10 feet and I find that the pedals are too close to the floor so my feet catch every now and agai
Very good product but not easy to put together as it is very heavy and it has to be moved around to put all the pieces in place. However, it is an excellent exercise bike and very good value for money
Great exercise bike. We found it useful to put a bit of support (a mat) under the slider wheel in the centre of the long part of the frame as it moved slightly.
Comfortable and easy to use.
I have been using the bike for more than 3 months now and very much satisfied with it. It has hear rate monitor which some time does not work and many times not accurate. But overall it is a good product. The assembling is easy and build quality is good.
The bike is ideal for my needs and the seller was very good and answered all my queries. I would recommend JLL in the future should I be asked
It was easier to put together – being 6’2 it really could do with another notch to make it a touch longer, i wouldn’t recommend it to anyone above 6’1
definitely worth covering seat and back rest with a towel – one so your bum doesn’t get numb!
I love this bike. I can’t use a normal bike because of my back problems, so this is perfect. But the seat isn’t comfy, so I stuck an old pillow on it-sorted!

Simple to assemble. My wife who has mobility problems needed an exercise bike and the recumbent layout means she can get on and off with ease. It is of sturdy construction.
It is good for excercise. I hope I shall lose some weight.
Photo showing handle arrangements to help potential buyer think about building the bike without the handles.
Personally I think it would be ok anyway as they can be adjusted. Good luck

On the down side, the side handle bars could do with being a little higher/adjustable. Would be nice if the moved to to workout your arms.
The seat is good but needs more lumbar support. I get over this by padding it out with cushions.
Very very happy with bike find it great for the waistline time fly by when using it twice daily
Took a bit of assembly but excellent exercise bike for the price. Shipped and arrived on time. If there is anything I could fault, it’s that the pedals are a little close to the ground and fat footed blokes like me tend to scuff on the ground.

I’ve been using my recumbent bike daily for about six months now. Take your time setting it up, it’s not that it’s complicated but give yourself half an hour to assemble it. It’s a great way to exercise when you don’t want to go outside!

When it came I could use the product and have to say that its a sit down bike! I can easily do 40 – 50 minutes on this while watching a DVD or Netflix and get off it with out the disappointment of having a sore bum which I would definitely have if I was on a bike. Great diversity to the bike riding and a reasonably good product for the price I paid. If you want much better quality you need to spend another 150 – 200 quid but I was not disappointed.
Loved my new bike, best thing I ever bought, it really helped with my recovery from a broken patella
I’m very happy with my purchase.
I think that three and a half stars would be my verdict, so JLL have been given the benefit of the doubt.
Although recumbent exercise cycles are deemed suitable for the less athletic, the same cannot be said for the assembly. To give some idea, I would suggest that you would need to be able to assemble a small flat-pack bookcase to be able to tackle the RE100, with possibly a greater ability to handle a heavy item.
The task is not as difficult as a first glance at the instructions would lead you to believe. I think that JLL are sending out leaflets that refer to older incarnations of this equipment. Basically there are several large parts held together with bolts. The bolts are already screwed into the appropriate places; the assembler simply has to undo them and use them to fix whichever two pieces [s]he is dealing with. The only exception to this are the two bolts that are packed with the pedals. These are used to join the seat assembly to the main frame.
My first difficulty came at the outset. The two cylindrical pieces that form the front and rear feet have to be bolted onto the two ends of the bottom rail. The line drawings are not clear as to which is which. The shorter one goes with the ‘engine’, i e the front, and the longer one at the rear. At the design stage it would have been very easy to have made the distances between the bolt holes on the respective pieces different so that it would be impossible to get it wrong. JLL could make things much easier by using a series of photographs for the instructions.
The putting together of the two pieces of the bottom rail is easy in theory but tricky in practice. One slides into the other and how far A is pushed into B is determined by the length of the legs of the user. The instructions advise that this is so but the calculation can’t be made until the seat is in place. See Below. This operation takes care. The electrical wires must not be damaged, the movement is stiff and the ‘engine’ end is heavy.
When putting together the seating assembly, I would suggest that you attach the seat to the bracket and then fix the bracket to the body. It is then easier to attach the backrest.
It is only when you have fitted the seat that you can determine how far the the seat has to be from the pedals for comfortable riding. I found that the sliding in and out of the two parts of the bottom rail to be the most difficult part of the whole operation. It would be easier with two people, one to hold the ‘engine’ steady and the other to pull and push. If two people of disparate height want to use this machine I think they could be in some difficulty; it would not be convenient to keep changing the length between sessions. You should also note that the avertised six seat positions refers to this adjustment. The seat height is fixed.
Apart from pointing out that the instructions for the use of the computer have been written by a probably far-eastern person whose grasp of English is only a little better than my grasp of Canonese, that is about it. This construction is, perhaps, not for the faint-hearted but those with medium-strength metaphorical hearts and with reasonably strong bodies should be able to cope
Excellent. Doesn’t take up a lot of room. Comfortable and a pleasure to use.
Unpacked and assembled with no issues
Used this machine every day
It is really good and I’m so pleased we purchased i
It was compactly boxed and only took 30 minutes to construct.
For the money it is an exceptionally robust piece of kit and very well made.
We have only had it for a week,but so far it seems to fit the bill perfectly.

Instructions for assembly were clear and all went together OK 1st time!
Just started using – VERY quiet – very pleased so far.
My husband is very pleased with the bike which he uses every day as part of his cardio-vascular workout following a heart bypass operation. However, he does find that due to the link in the bar that connects the front and back it wobbles somewhat. The screw has been tightened as far as it will go but it has made no difference. This is the reason for the failing star. Otherwise he is extremely happy with it.
Very good value for money. None if the frills of the expensive digital models but does the job well.

Had it in use for a month and it has proved to be an excellent buy.
Arrived quickly -Easy to assemble – comfortable to use.
Well built product and very good and stable to use machine for the price.
Great bike, I personally found it very easy to put together. It’s not to heavy so can be moved round if necessary, not to large so doesn’t take up to much room. Not sure how accurate the monitor is but does give a good work out, has a dail so you can go up a level and make ur work out more effective. Seems quite sturdy and doesn’t make any noise.
RRP is a lie – JLL fitness home website has the RRP as 225. Still a decent product, though.
I’m very pleased with this it was exactly what it said it was and I’m using it lots and looking forward to the weight coming off.
Arrived on good time. Very easy to put together. Great starter bike for someone like me who can’t get out to exercise. Also having arthritis this doesn’t put pressure on my joints so I can build up my fitness. Very good value for the money.

his item was very good and item just as describe
Wear trainers on your feet for a comfortable work out. Would imagine that this machine would be hard to use if your very overweight, tall and have large feet as they would catch on the floor all the time. It’s a question of positioning.
Bought for elderly relative to improve core strength
