Lifecore Exercise Bike Review
Compact, Self-Powered and High Quality

Lifecore Fitness is known for high quality stationary bikes that are compact, ergonomically designed and self-powered as well as for industry leading warranties that are backed up by excellent customer service.

Lifecore Exercise Bikes may look very similar to other brands on the surface or at a glance but these bikes have a more advanced ergonomic design and include a lot of features not found on other brands in the same price range.

Lifecore Bikes have a smaller footprint than other brands allowing you to store or use these bikes in more locations. The compact size is most noticeable with the recumbent models. The magnetic resistance models (the upright and the recumbents) all have self-powered generators giving you even more flexibility as to where you use these fitness bikes.

Another feature that all of the magnetic resistance Lifecore Fitness Bikes share is that they all have hand grip heart rate monitors as well as consoles that are compatible to wireless heart rate monitors. The consoles all include heart rate control (HRC) programs allowing which allow you to maintain your target heart rate automatically. 

Lifecore Brand Stationary Bikes have the best warranties in the industry. The only brands that offers warranties that are even close to Lifecore warranties is Sole Fitness and the high end (and much more expensive) commercial grade Life Fitness brand.

The new line of Lifecore Fitness Stationary Bikes includes 3 Recumbent models, 1 Upright (magnetic resistance) model and 1 Dual Action Fan Bike.

Lifecore Upright and Recumbent Fitness Bikes

One of the key features of all Lifecore stationary bikes is that they are much more compact than other brands giving you more options as to where you store and/or use your bike. This is the most noticeable with the recumbent models. The self-powered generators give you even more options as to where you use your bike.

All Upright and Recumbent models from Lifecore (excluding the AirBike) have hand grip heart rate monitors as well as consoles that are compatible to wireless heart rate monitors.

The consoles all include heart rate control (HRC) programs allowing allowing you to maintain your target heart rate automatically (the resistance level of the bike is controlled automatically based on your desired heart rate).

About-Bicycles Brand Review - Lifecore

I have found all Lifecore Fitness Bikes that I have personally tested (all of the recumbent models and the upright model) to be comfortable, sturdy, high quality and easy to adjust and use.

I particularly liked the lower console positions on the recumbent models (that you can easily see over), easy seat adjustments levers and the mesh seat backs.

I had the opportunity to discuss the Lifecore AirBike with the owner of Lifecore Fitness when this bike was first released. This is where I learned about the AirBike being put through the extreme real world testing by the CrossFit Organization.**

Aside from the commercial durability of the Lifecore Airbike, the Lifetime warranty and affordable price make this a particularly good buy.

When you are looking for a compact, high quality and affordable fitness bike, Lifecore Fitness is an excellent choice which I would highly recommend.
