How many levels of resistance?
587872
The know on the shafts controls the resistance. The levels are not marked tho. I've spun the knob and it seems fairly sensitive so my guess would be that there are many levels.

I'm not sure, but it has at least nine. I haven't tried to go higher than nine.

Yes, a fair amount but in my experience the different resistance levels that can be set on the trainer itself didn't differ from each other by more than a tiny bit. I would recommend this product, though, because of its ease of setup, use, and overall build quality.

Not much that I have figured out. It seems to only have the same resistance no matter the body weight or force put down.

I'm not sure. Every time I tried to use it, it started pretty hard but then it kinda gets "smother" as you keep going. I can't remember if you can adjust the resistance bc I gave it away last year; sorry I can't help with that question :(

There is a card that comes with it to explain the different levels. I hope this helps...

I don't think so it's not designed for that wouldn't hurt to try the resistance is certainly there. Hope that helped

The resistance is variable based on what you connect to the generator. Assume a resistance scale of 1 through 10 with 10 being impossibly difficult and 1 being no resistance at all. If you connect a 25 Watt load (Like a 25Watt light bulb) then the difficulty will be around 3 or 4. If you connect a large 12V battery (Size 28 Amp Hours) then the difficulty resistance level would be around 6 or 7. If you connect two 100W loads then it would be 10.

Yes.. about 40 - 45 ohms, give or take a little. Exact number is not real important as long as it is over 35 and under 60. Numbers outside that range would indicate something is really wrong with that element. Resistance within that range will work, just maybe not perfectly.

I have just started using the bike... and I find that if I just don't use any of the aerobic options and just stay steady with it at one, it's okay. I don't believe you can get the resistance any lower, but you can build up your strength using level 1 until ready to start using the workout aerobic trainers. I don't choose anything... when I get on the bike I just start to petal... and let it stay neutral like I'm on a level terrain track. I can only do 10 min at a time right now.

zero is the lightest resistance you will (Quick)start at 2 and press the button 2 times to get it at that point

It has resistance - you adjust it with a knob so it doesn't have a number system just + & -. I find it adequate for me and I have more crack down that I could do. Hope this helps. I really like my machine

I have had no problem with the resistence at level 1, or any other level. I am 100% satisfied with the RC-30.

Like Dorothy, I normally use just one setting. However, I just tried them all and, like Sally, found a considerable difference in resistance between the low and high settings. Low is nearly freewheeling, high is like going up a stiff grade, and the steps in between are a fairly even progressing between the two extremes.

Medium to light resistance . However, if you have any knee problems you must be careful. I usually where mine with h2o shoes which adds resistence for a better workout.

it does have resistance by turning knob clockwise for more and counterclockwise for less

There are six (6) cords, three on each side, already installed top to bottom. I'm not sure of the resistance levels in Newtons, but they can give you a pretty good workout.
