UREVO Auto-Motorized Magnetic Exercise Bike, Smart Indoor Cycling Bike Stationary for Home Compatible with APPs, 350LBS Weight Capacity, Tablet Holder, Competition seat, Silent Belt Drive…

I’ve been researching indoor cycling bikes for at least a year. I just wanted something affordable that had great reviews and was quiet. I kept coming back to this bike. I finally went ahead and purchased it.It arrived a week earlier than originally estimated which was great because it came on my birthday! My husband put it together with the “help” of our three year old. He was done in less than an hour. Said it wasn’t complicated. Feels super sturdy.I did my first ride that night and was impressed! Being a short girl (5’0), I was worried if I would fit comfortably, but I do. The tablet holder is great and I downloaded an app to do guided rides on since I have no clue what I’m doing. Phones don’t fit if you have a pop socket on FYI.It’s also really quiet which was important to me because my son has epilepsy and his trigger is being woken up. I was able to ride this bike next to him asleep and he didn’t so much as blink.My only complaint is because I’m a big girl, I feel like the seat is really uncomfortable. It’s an easy enough fix and I already have a cushion cover on its way. If you’re an avid rider, this may not be for you- I don’t know, but for a beginner looking to get in shape or build up stamina- this is definitely for you!

I've had this bike for about two weeks, I'm a 5'8" 175lb male in fairly decent shape, which I mention because I figure I should be right in the middle of the target size range for a user of this product. Here are my thoughts so far:Reasonably easy to assemble. Requires serious arm/wrist strength getting the pedals fully tightened though. I can not imagine a 60 year old could do it unless they're in great shape..so if you're older or aren't really strong, you'll likely need help from someone with good grip strength. A lot of broken English in the manual but along with the illustrations it's easy enough to figure out. They advise assembly be done by two people but I managed to do it on my own with only one stage of it mildly challenging (if you've ever done yoga and can hold your body in an odd posture for a minute, you'll probably be fine managing to hold up one piece of the bike and keep it still while screwing in another piece). It's easier if you have help, but if you don't, it's far from impossible to get it together on your own.40lb flywheel -- I think in general, this is on the heavy side, and therefore that's supposed to be a good thing, as it can provide lots of resistance. I'm no expert on this, but I think that this also means that level #1 (of 16) is actually still slightly difficult just because the flywheel is so heavy without even any resistance. It's not a problem for me, but I can't imagine that my elderly mother would ever go above level 1. Level 1 takes a little effort...more than just riding a lightweight bike on a flat street, and it seems to me that the easiest setting on a spin bike should feel like basically nothing. Not saying level 1 is difficult here, just saying I wouldn't use this machine for physical therapy or for the elderly unless they're already in decent shape. Setting 16 is obviously extremely difficult, which is cool...probably overkill though. My legs are fairly strong and I find myself fluctuating between levels 3 - 9, but mostly staying between 4 and 7. No idea how this relates to a Peloton scale (which has 100 levels as opposed to the 16 of this model). 16 levels is enough segmentation however. There's no need to divide it all the way down to the hundredth (imo). I can't imagine any human being would want to ride it set at 16 but it's good at that setting for some stand-up, stair climbing action anyway. I'd just say that the flywheel here is serious and this bike isn't for the weak. I could see some people never bringing it past level 2 and still getting a decent workout.I paid $380 for my Urevo about three weeks ago, which included a $100 off sale and an additional coupon at checkout...Today it's going for $40 less than that without any coupon deal. While this is a really nice buy and a generally good piece of machinery, this bike misses two major yet simple features that really should go in a bike of this price range and quality -- no RPM (or "cadence") and no heart rate meter. I like to know if I'm going too hard and it's a little annoying having to stick my finger in a separate pulse rate device rather than hold the handlebars like most other cardio equipment has built in, but I'll get by without I guess.And while there's no RPM guage, it does give you mph (interesting that there's no km per hour setting; I'm going to assume that either there's a hidden trick to switch from miles to km, or just the ones sold to the U.S. market are all programmed for mph). I like having mph but I'd probably rather have rpm/cadence if I had the choice, as RPMs are generally a noted part of many spin workouts. For myself, I ended up pedaling along with a metronome to determine rpm vs mph on this machine, and then I made a chart and taped it onto the bike, so I can estimate how many rpm's I'm doing based on the speedometer (call me crazy, I like to know my RPMs).The design of the speedometer/resistance control screen is easy enough to figure out and seems positioned decently, although one criticism (on top of the lack of RPM readout) is that you can only see resistance and one other stat at a time. The cpu on the Urevo does have a scan function, but I'd much prefer it to just display all the stats together simultaneously, and the screen on this thing is basically big enough to do that if they wanted to implement it.As mentioned in other reviews, this is a solidly built unit (fingers crossed I'm still feeling this way in a year's time). Even though it has a heavy flywheel and fairly thick and substantial metal parts, it's actually a little lighter than other similar spin bikes like the Peloton or IC4. Bike is stable, doesn't feel like it's rocking or going to tip over at all. It's not silent but it's quiet enough -- I can hear my tv over it without having to turn my tv up any more than normal. I will criticize the seat's stability though, as the bolting system it has allow for the seat to somewhat easily get pushed off center so that it points towards the left or right side. I tightened the bolts pretty tight and the seat fairly quickly slid off center, so I tightened the seat bolts again 3x as tight as before and now the seat is reasonably stable, but I still have to be careful not to nudge the front of the seat while getting on or off the bike. I know a lot of spin bikes use this system for locking the seats in place....it's a bad system. There's gotta be easier ways to make bike seats that stay in place. I had a piece of crap bike previous to this one -- didn't have this issue with the seat nudging off center.The adjustability of everything is generally great, the markers are enough to get back to where you where if sharing with another user, although the handlebars don't adjust horizontally to move forward or closer; only up or down. It would be nice if I could push them an inch or two further away from me, and I would think that at my smack in the middle of average 5'8" height I shouldn't have to...so I'd almost say that this bike may be most ideally fitted for shorter people (5'7" or less), although I'm pretty sure someone who's 6'2" could still adjust this bike enough for their needs to get the job done.Also, I feel like the handlebars are a little hard. I sorta wish there was a thin layer of foam covering them to soften them as arm rests and as hand grips. My previous bike was much cheaper and lower quality but I actually miss the slightly soft foam sleeve it had over the handlebars now that I'm on this. I'll get used to it though, and if a few months passes and my hands and forearms still ache on these handlebars, maybe I'll buy something to coat them with.Tablet holder works. Ruberized so your stuff won't slide around, which is a legit plus. Tilts easily for good viewing angle adjustment. Holds cell phones as well as tablets. Can't complain. Also has a 1A usb charging port, should you be running low on battery power.Water bottle holder is in a decent place, just below the brake dial. It totally does the job fine, although it isn't quite made for large water bottles...While pedaling as fast as I could, my full 32oz bottle slipped out of the mount and fell on the floor (cap was on though, not a big deal, and it only happened once so far over the 5 or so hours I've put on it). A regular 16 or 20 oz bottle probably wouldn't ever have this issue.That's about all I can say for now. If the bike starts to develop any odd noises or problems, I'll update this review (if I remember to)...really wish I could compare the feel of it to a Peloton or IC4, but I have a feeling this is pretty similar. This bike isn't perfect, but after doing a bunch of research, it seemed like this is as close as I'm going to get to an IC4 yet is only about 1/3 the price.

This Urevo bike is amazing! So smooth, easy build, and great digital readings for speed, distance and resistance. It is also very silent and comfortable to ride. Also, the customer service is excellent, they reply quickly and really focus on making the customer happy. I had a few initial issues, but they were extremely responsive and and resolved the issues immediately. I’m am very pleased with my purchase and highly recommend others to purchase. Great job Urevo!

This is a great smart exercise bike for a great price! It's easy to set up and operate. Really like the digital resistance adjustment too and it has a large stand attached for your ipad or phone, which is super convenient. The only negative is the bike seat, a bit uncomfortable and very small but it was easy to replace it.

The petals can’t be disabled. The Allen wrench that was sent doesn’t fit the petal nuts or bolts…. And the only way to put the petal on is to disable to nuts and bolts and unfortunately the right parts weren’t sent. So now I have to figure out how to repackage this and send it back. What a waste of my time. I would never purchase from them again.Update, after not hearing back from customer service, I managed to find tools to put the bike together and now the Bluetooth doesn’t work. The whole point was the Bluetooth capability….. ugh. And still no word back from customer service…..
