great video ! everything you need to know very well explained. Thx

Awesome review

Good video that bike looks smart i am getting it

I am 6'6" and am trying to find a good option for a tall guy . My inseam is 36" so I need a seat that will rise enough. Any thoughts on that?

I am 6'0" and it is maxed out for me. Chinese products are only made for right handed short people with large hat, glove and shoe sizes.

you need to have power to change resistance? or can you use bike without being plugged in?

Thanks for the review. I thought the flywheel should be 18kg or more. Is 13kg flywheel good enough for a spin bike?

Hi Jagjit, It feels pretty good and heavy getting it up to speed. I didn't notice much difference between the heavier versions. Hope thats helps a little 👍

Do you need to be connected to the app to set resistance? If no, how can resistance be set??

This was awesome. I just set this bike up and was very curious about the app so Thank you. I did have a question. What kind of plant/tree is that? I need one. 😀

Do you think the resistance is strong enough to get virtually anyone out of breath and above 160 heart rate? How smooth is the resistance at the highest levels?

Have you connected to strava at all? Interested to see how it pushes the data over in free ride mode

Hi Brendon, Its a super solid piece of kit. minus the dust on it...still looks pretty brand new. All works like it did anyway! Hope that helps

I have the ex3, it’s a solid reliable spin bike. I use the apple fitness plus, so the lack of built in screen suits me. I do link my phone on the freestyle option so I know cadence and resistance etc. great alternative to the peloton!

I just purchased this used (brand new but used once per the seller) the tension knob isn't working. Do you have to adjust tension while holding down? I can't find any material on this

Mine makes a noise as I change resistance is that normal? It's sounds like the magnetics in the flywheel

What is the difference between the Ex3 and the Connect Sport? Is the EX3 worth $500 more?

@wiggle

3 жыл бұрын

Not a huge difference between the models, the most significant difference between the Echelon bikes is the weight of the flywheels, with the Connect Sport's considerably lighter at 7kg than the EX3's 13kg. ... Other than that, the Sport is very similar to the EX3, only lacking extras like dumbbell holders and pedals that work with clip-in SPD bike shoes. Hope that helps

@shaolin95

2 жыл бұрын

There are more differences but I would go for the ex5 instead on sale for just$200 more than the connect You get, adjustable handle back and forth, better tablet holder with USB, weights holder, dual water holder, auto resistance adjustment with apps like Pelotton, better pedals and heavier flywheel
