Will it give me a good workout? Is it stable?

It has given me an excellent workout. So far I've only used it on the lower resistance levels (1-3). After the first few days, every muscle in my legs got sore. The resistance goes up to 8, and I aspire to one day being fit enough to do most my workout at this level. You also 'get out of it what you put into it.' If you peddle faster, at higher resistance levels, you'll definitely get a good work out. Mine is very stable , but I only use it on carpet or a rug. However, I'm only 5'5" and 135 pounds, and ride for about a half hour everyday. If one weighed 200 lbs. or over, and wanted to ride much more than that, I'd invest in a heavier, more expensive bike.

I always work up a good sweat. If you're hoping to get big, cut cycling legs this isn't for you. I can knock it over if I try, but you won't have to worry about falling over if you're just riding it.

If you pedal a slow to medium pace then the bike is sturdy. I tried to pedal at a high speed to burn calories faster and the bike srarted to slide, and it almost tipped over. I have a tile floor. I would prefer a heavier bike. Also the handle bars are so far away from the seat its hard to hold on while u pedal. Im 5'5 maybe if you're taller than me it will be easier.

Yes it will give you a great workout. You just have to put in the time and crank up the resistence and it is stable. I ride sometimes without using handle bars and playing on cellphone at the same time.

Guess so, but mine works well. It was a bit of a pain to put together, and certainly not like the ones at the gym (more narrow, simpler, maybe more noisy), but overall I'm quite happy with it. It's functional, and much easier to move than the really heavy ones. I don't know how long it will last...but it's worked well so far and I've had it for 3-4 months now. My husband and I together probably put 7 miles on it per day, so hoping it doesn't poop out for another couple years!

Depends on how intensely you exercise, but most likely, no. The base is not sturdy enough.

It won't be as stable but it will work. I just checked mine and it can do it.

As long as you have a good grasp of it then you wont notice it too much. For me the price and quality of it made it a great purchase. Its been 3 months since I've had mine and I still have no complaints. It will feel unbalanced in weight when just holding it but i guess depending on what workout you do it might bug you. For me it was the bang for buck.

It's worth the money. Especially since my work really imburses $100 for home equipment. As a medium sized middle age woman it's perfect for my workouts. A strong man may need something more robust.

Yep. It will support your weight. The question is really what you're trying to accomplish. The product gave me the respite and confidence to not need it any more. Best of luck!

YUP! It should do that for you with the proper speed setting. It's a great little exercise bike! It's quiet (love that part) and takes up very little floor space!

It is probably OK for arm workout. You could C clamp it down if it moves. I don't know hoe heavy it is.

Yes! It's absolutely awesome. It may feel a bit heavy at first, but you get used to it, and then it just feels really good and stable.

It isn't heavy or hard to move around; it is relatively complicated to assemble. My maintenance man put mine together in about a half of a day. I am glad I got it approximately 3 years ago, it has bee used about 3 times per week and is plenty of work out stuff unless someone is super serious about muscle and workout.

Absolutely! Is solid enough for that. I already tries it and is no loose or tilting.

The stability is fine, but the pull-up bar is something to be desired. I've had to replace it once due to the weld breaking on both sides. I had a friend make me a new one out of a higher gauge steel to stabilize it. I only weigh 185.

Mine didn't wobble It work just Fine I say go slow any workout is better than none. I had one foot in cast good luck keep the faith I can do it and you will;

It's pretty long so I'm not sure about stability. It may be okay but it will be the wrong angle for your hands. You'll be fighting sore arms and wrists in no time. You can get a stand pretty reasonably and I would make the investment. You'll be able to play a lot longer. Hope this helped.

Absolutely. We got it to help with our balance, and it's quite good for that. Comes with some exercise suggestions.
