Horizon RC-30 Recumbent Review

The Horizon RC-30 recumbent exercise bike gives you light commercial grade quality, an unbeatable price along and an incredible warranty to back up this product.

On a recent trip to Johnson Health Tech in Madison Wisconsin, I had the opportunity to review this recumbent bike with a product specialist from Horizon. This is a very well made fitness bike and the quality and warranty blows away most other stationary bikes in this category (just compare the Horizon to the comparable Schwinn products).

Some of the key features of this bike, in addition to its overall quality and excellent warranties, are the easily adjustable ratcheting pedal clips, the 8 resistance levels that actually provide a good resistance at the higher levels for a better workout and the high quality, easy to use, plug in electronic console (no batteries to replace constantly).

This is a very comfortable fitness bike. The frame stays solid and stable under the fastest pedaling pace. The seat is fully adjustable for a perfect riding position and it's contoured shape and lumbar support make exercising easier, and speed recovery time for those with injuries.

Stationary bikes, including the Horizon RC-30 Recumbent provide an excellent low impact, aerobic exercise and are much more affordable than other home fitness equipment. Fitness bikes also provide a safe, low impact aerobic exercise that has been used for physical therapy for years.

Recumbent Exercise Bikes are more popular than upright models for many people mostly because they provide better back and upper body support and also because most people consider them more comfortable. Recumbent Bikes also give you the option to watch TV comfortably, listen to music and your hands are free (for reading magazines or books, etc.).

I have recently found that you can see Horizon Fitness Bikes on display in HHGregg stores. HHGregg is a fairly large chain of electronics and appliances type of stores although they are not yet coast to coast. Most of these stores are in the east and central US.
