Why should I get a spin bike?

Spinning is widely regarded as one of the most effective forms of cardio exercise. It’s low-impact, works the lower body, and is excellent for your health. And while cycling outdoors is great, having a exercise bike at home allows you to workout regardless of the weather outside. Spinning at home is convenient because it allows you to multitask while working out from the comfort of your home gym.

What features should I look for in a spin bike?

Finding the right spin bike for you is going to ensure that you are comfortable working out on it and commit to using it regularly. Adjustability is a major factor: spin bikes with adjustable seat posts and handlebars will ensure that nearly any body type can be suited to the bike. The Ascend magnetic spin bike has 4-way adjustable handlebar with 5 levels of vertical adjustment and 4-way adjustable padded seat with 7 levels of vertical adjustment. You also want to look for something with adjustable resistance, so that you can vary the intensity of your workouts. Another great feature to look out for is a good monitor on the spin bike so that you can track your progress.

How much does a spin bike cost?

Spin bikes vary widely in price depending on the materials it is built with and the features that are included. Spin bikes can cost anywhere from $400 up to $2000 depending on the model.

What routine maintenance does a spin bike require?

Most spin bikes are convenient in that they require little maintenance. However, it is always a good practice to regularly check the screws and bolts on your spin bike, as they may become slightly loose over time.

How do I clean my spin bike?

After each spinning session, it is a good practice to wipe the sweat off of your spin bike with a towel. In general, it is also good to sweep and vacuum your exercise area so that no dust or dirt gets on the spin bike.

What assembly does a spin bike require?

Spin bikes generally require some simple assembly out of the box. The frame of the spin bike needs to be attached to the base pieces. Once that is done, you can proceed with placing and adjusting the seat post and handlebars. Finally, you will need to screw in the two pedals on the bike, at which point you will be ready to start spinning! The Ascend spin bike assembly time is only 15 minutes.
