Exercise Bike needed...ideas?

[rob999]

Hey all,
Any opinions on a decent sturdy exercise bike I can use over the winter months that costs up to £250?
Some of them look like the seat doesn't go up very high!!
I'd be looking to use it for maybe one to two hours a day as I like my keep fit
Cheers...

although it sounds like a contradiction, an exercise bike in a gym is not designed to be used for specific cycle training but a general cardio workout. the seat wont go up that high as the favoured position on an exercise bike is to have the bars and seat almost level rather than the have seat higher like a normal bike. you wont leave the saddle on a nexercise bike hence the sit up and beg position the machine puts you in.

a set of rollers or a turbo trainer is a far more beneficial cycle training aid.
