Magnetrainer ER magnetic exercise bike for home or professional use

Excellent. This has been such a success that I went back and bought one for the office as well as home. Robust, easy to set up. Ideal under a rising desk with a tall chair. This gives easily adjusted and decently strong magnetic resistance. Silent in operation. My feet are on the pedals hours a day and must cover virtual miles each day. Also excellent company to deal with. One trainer I thought had too low resistance. Pleasure to liaise with, they arranged return and replacement. Replacement faultless. Very reassuring.

I bought this piece of kit as I am partially disabled and wanted a way of exercising without going out in the rain. I have a left sided weakness following a brain haemorrhage and have found other equipment to be unusable due to my left foot falling out of any pedal with just a single velcro strap. With this in mind, I also bought the medical level foot pedals for this and they are great, no chance of my left foot falling out of the pedal and no movement or slippage of foot position. Now onto the review..... This is a first class piece of equipment and I am very pleased with my purchase. I get an excellent workout with this and find myself working up quite a sweat after going on average 25km an hour on each session. The resistance can be easily adjusted and goes from a light motion to a heavy resistance which makes your muscles work well. The unit itself is very portable, its not too heavy and can be carried upstairs easily and with the unit being so compact, it can be easily stored. Now onto the reason why I am only giving this four stars - the stability of the unit whilst being pedalled is not the greatest. The length of the base is adjusted by moving a t shaped bar in or out of the base unit and using a single screw to hold it in place. This is where the unit lets itself down. The single screw is tightened up against the bar and not inserted into holes (unlike other equipment I've used). While using this, the screw has not kept the t shaped bar in place which has resulted in a half centimetre high groove (about 6 inches long) being gouged out by the screw moving along the length of the bar. I have put the unit on a fairly high setting and it doesnt stay in the same location on the floor. As a result, I placed the base against a wall which works fine. With the base legs resting against a wall, any strong pedalling causes the t shaped bar to be pushed into the base hence the screw gouging out the groove and the base being shortened which causes some instability at higher tensions. As a result of the bar being pushed into the base unit, I cut a piece of 1"x2" wood into two 42 cm lengths and wedged one either side of the unit which prevents the t bar recessing into the base unit. Whilst this is a crude workaround, I feel that it could have been prevented if the t bar had holes for the screw to go into and there's enough length in the bar to have holes every 2 inches or so. Although the t bar and screw lets it down, I am getting a decent workout from this trainer. I use it sitting in the same position as the woman in the picture and it is so quiet I have been able to watch television without having to turn up the volume. Overall, a recommended piece of equipment but be prepared to improvise if you expect to get a good workout from it.

I purchased this piece of equipment for my wife who had just had full knee replacement surgery and needed to regularly exercise that replaced joint in order for it to achieve the best recovery result.My wife used it many times a day as it becomes addictive especially when its placed in front of the sofa in front of the tv.It ceases to be a chore and she can't help herself and uses it all the time wether the tv is on or off.The equipment is very sturdy of excellent quality and very quite to use not coggy or clunky so any one else near by is not all all disturbed by the use of this aid.This was of key importance in making this purchase and we were certainly not disappointed. It has helped her tremendously strengthen both legs.She has since had the other knee replaced as that too from the start needed the operation.Four months since her other knee operation and i shall be putting this equipment away in the loft now as she has been going for an hour walk everyday what ever the weather for the last two months along with using the equipment.The hour hour walk should be enough exercise for the time being now but personal preference for anyone wishing to continue using the equipment for as long as they want or maybe incorporate in your daily exercise for your legs .

I've had this for a few days now and I'm finding it very helpful in increasing the flexibility on my broken leg. It was easy to assemble following the clear instructions. The whole job took about 10 minutes. At the moment I'm only using on the lightest setting and the machine is stable and stays where I want it it. I suspect that as I crank up the pressure as I get stronger it will creep across the carpet. The manufacturer recognised this and provides a velcro strap to tie it back to the chair and I expect this will solve the problem. Also non-slip pads are provided for use on a smooth floor. There's an electronic gizmo that measures speed, time, distance travelled and calories consumed. This seems to work well. This seems a very well engineered bit of equipment, more expensive than others on the market, but I suspect that it's money well spent.

Meine Erwartungen wurden voll erfüllt. Das sehr stabile Gerät arbeitet leise. Pedalen und derren Befestigung sind wie bei einem Fahrrad. Magnetbremse ist stufenlos regelbar. Bremsregler ist ohne Scala, das Auffinden einer vorherigen Einstellung wird dadurch erschwert. Es ist möglich, das Gerät bei Bertieb gegen eine Wand oder einen Schrank zu stellen um es gegen verrutschen zu sichern. Das Display zeigt gebrauchte Zeit, zurückgelegte km und annähernd verbrauchte Energie in kcal. Die deutsche Bedienungsanleitung ist sehr schlecht, wird aber kaum benötigt weil man nicht viel falsch machen kann. 5 Sterne für gute Verpackung, sehr gute Verarbeitung und Qualität.

Muy duraderos y practicos

Encore faut il l'utiliser ce que j'avoue je ne fais pas trop

La resistenza è continua in ogni angolo della pedalata ed è regolabile progressivamente con la manopola. Nulla a che vedere ccon le normali ciclette. Ottimo per riabilitazione o per ginnastica. Il costo è elevato, ma se cercate qualcosa in più da una ciclette o avete esigenze particolari, questa ciclette è veramente valida.

Appareil pratique, facile à utiliser et robuste
