How is the tension setting?

It is fine for beginners but doesn't get tight enough for serious muscle building.

Tension is adjusted on a knob under the control panel. It adjusts from 1 (not much) to 10 (pretty good amount). If you are a beginner cyclist then the tension adjustment should be more than adequate to give you a challenge. If you are a cyclist used to doing hills, then you may not find it as challenging.

To each their own. If your looking to pedal to attempt to tone up while using a small space than this is the item your looking for. The tension is adjustable. And it is a noticeable adjustment at that. My bike worked so well building muscle tone I had to stop using it, Lol.. In the summer I put it on my porch or deck in front of the fan and pedal away while the kids are at play.

there is a sliding set screw on the back of the rod (where you can't see it) that allows you to adjust the tension.

It is a great stretch, but you should set it on the higher tension after you are used to it ( not right away because if you are tight it can be a bit too much). It is very hard to adjust, but I feel the deeper stretch does adress the pecs too.

Initially it takes a but of tinkering to get the tension just right. But once you've got it, you can just slide it up or down...very easy to do.

I tryed to think of what could possibly make a sound like that, and I think it would be most likely involved in the tension mechanism. Try adjusting it all the way so it's hard to peddle, then begin backing off the tension untill you found your desired setting.

Yes, if the tension is too loose for you it's convenience to switch to a higher tension. The higher the individual's weight the higher the tension must be to prevent the trampoline from bottoming out. So far, I really like it :)

Yes, tension can be adjusted. There is a knob right in middle of front bottom that can be turned to tighten or loosen the tension.

If you're extremely fit you may find, even with the highest tension setting, that this is beneath your usual work level. However, I find that with minimal knee extension and a faster pace, I can feel it. My workout level is a bit below moderate.

Well it is as stiff or soft as you want, you can adjust it buy turning a dial or wheel handle at the front, that sett's the spring tension.

It has a minimum tension only, it still requires some effort, like you were using about a 5 lb weight.It was also easier when I held it out at arms length, and used your other hand to stabilize it.I haven't set it any higher and it's been a couple of months.

The tension knob MUST be aligned properly in the hole before tightening or it will NOT seat properly. It took me 4 tries before I got it seated properly and quite a few turns before it tightened enough to increase the tension.

Melissa M. ,It goes both forward and backward. The tension is set by the set pin on the top middle. Thank you.

I don't have that problem. As I turn the knob to the right, the tension increases. It lessens when I turn the knob to the left.

The tension on each joint on the unit is adjustable so you can set the ease that it moves to your specifications.

yes you can adjust the tension and I use this product when I get sweaty and have to work and need my glasses to stay tight

Very smooooooth for me. Try easing up on the tension. This has become an enjoyable daily routine.

I don't know exaclty, nor it is on the specs (as far as I know).Anyway, the minimum tension is quite "soft" (even for a usually non-powered pinky finger, for example) and it is widely adjustable...Hope this helpsBest regardsGiancarlo
