Does this stationary bike blow the wind it generated from your pedaling to the user?

Yes, it moves the air around the rider but is less than a fan would be. Hope this helps.

J.D., there is some blowing but not the kind that would cool you off while using...but this bike has NO tension dial...one speed and one speed only...and that's the speed you set...and that's it...ABSOLUTELY NO RESISTANCE AT ALL--which defeats the purpose in the first place. I just don't understand why this product is on the market. That being said, I'd highly recommend not buying this product. I plan on giving mine away and that's going to be a hard sell.

I don't know. I don't run mine all the time. Just when the weather gets warmer to keep bike from sweating. When weather is constantly cold I don't run fan.

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 find that the machine is pretty quiet as far as exercise equipment goes. My treadmill is much louder, and it's probably even quieter than my stationary bike.

I believe so, but what you should know is I used this for only about 8-10 miles at the most before the noise it makes at drove me nuts enough to put it back in the box. I needed to ride, but in the desert heat, with no air conditioning in the house, it just wasn't worth wearing earplugs on top of everything else I had to go through to ride. My advice is to buy the best and most quiet stationary bike stand on the market. Search bike shops for comparison, and hear and see them in action. Plan on spending $250 or so, but believe me - well worth every dollar!!

None. However I do have to readjust the position periodically so I may spin the rear wheel without the arms on the stand touching spokes or gears. On my friend's bike he didn't have to worry about this but because of the shape of my specialized I experienced this.

No it does not. It also does not move right or left to compensate for wind conditions. The newest model, the Eliminator III dors have markings for windage that could help if you know the crosswind situation but I do not have that model.

The bike has magnets to set various resistance levels.Basically you can set the resistance on the bike to pedal with less or more resistance to strengthen you muscles.

No but easy to wind. I have given this Dirt Devil to several people as a gift and they all love it. From small apartment for my grandson in college to a large house, mine it really is great.

No this is a "spinning" bike and the pedals are directly hooked up to the flywheel. Nice unit for the money.

No it doesn't but if you even turn the handlebars it goes crazy. I have had it for a while and never forget I did at first but it goes crazy if it's even tapped

Yes, it does wind up and down. The action of doing so is a little loud, but it works well.

Yes it does. There is a slide/clip in piece that attaches to your handlebars which the unit clips into while you're riding but can be taken out of when you're not. I take it out when I'm done to enter my stats in my computer and put it back when I go out on my next ride. It's a really nice unit.

It does compress when you push on it. I ride for about 30 minutes on my stationary bike and it's OK.

It does, but it's not rigid because of the width of the Nashbar rollers. It tends to move whenever you adjust your position on the bike. The instability can be frustrating.

Yep, the bike must be in motion with the pedals moving. This is pretty much true of all drailleur systems. Enjoy! I still have mine and though I've had to make small adjustments, it still rides great.

The unit appears to do very well with any kind of background noise. I've been in bars with a band playing so loud I had cover my ears to hear my caller and they asked me why I was shouting! I have worn it and had conversations while on my bike with 20mph wind and city traffic and no complains about any noise. In fact they don't realize I'm on my bike. I've yet to peddle at 70 mph but if you can keep it in your ear the wind sound shouldn't be a problem. I left mine in a rental car and liked it so much I'm shopping for the exact replacement.
