Stamina Exercise Bikes Reviewed!
If you’re looking for a solidly-constructed exercise bike for a reasonable price, look no further than Stamina. With decades of experience in the home fitness industry, a Stamina exercise bike is a great choice.
Like the other big exercise bike brands, Stamina offers a variety of upright and recumbent bikes. And, Stamina also offers a bike for practically any budget. Whether you want to spend $250 or $1,000, Stamina has an exercise bike for you!
And when it comes to construction, each Stamina exercise bike lives up to its name. Every frame is made out of heavy-duty steel – meaning that you’ll never have to worry about a wobbly ride. That frame also comes with a 5-year warranty. The bike’s parts come with a 1-year warranty.
Stamina bikes also come with magnetic resistance – a plus in the exercise bike world because of the quiet, smooth ride it provides. But, unfortunately, the resistance uses knobs instead of push-buttons that the pricier exercise bike brands offer.
Each Stamina exercise bike comes with 8 resistance levels – which is where many biking veterans may get turned off. If you’ve spent a lot of time on your bike, you may eventually “outgrow” those 8 resistance levels. That’s why more expensive bikes come with at least 10 levels.
However, in its favor, each Stamina exercise bike comes with 6 built-in workout programs. That way, you can alter your workout so that you’ll never get bored!
So, which Stamina exercise bikes are the best buy?
The Stamina Indoor Cycle 1305 is the cheapest model. For around $225, you won’t get any of the bells and whistles that pricier models offer, but you will get a great monitor that keeps track of the time you’ve spent pedaling, the speed you’re traveling, the distance you’ve covered, and the calories you’ve burned.
If you want the very top-of-the-line Stamina exercise bike, go for the Stamina Elite Total Body Recumbent Bike, which usually retails for about $1,000.
This bike definitely isn’t all about legs, though! In fact, it comes with rotating handlebars, so that you can also give your arms and shoulders a great workout. Plus, this bike makes it easy to keep track of your progress with a monitor that measures your speed, distance, calories burned, and pulse. As an added benefit, the monitor is battery-powered, so you don’t have to worry about finding a spot for it right next to an electrical outlet.
