Upon reading the good reviews, I took a chance & purchased this …
As an avid exerciser, who frequently mountainbikes and have used stationary bikes during the darkest parts of winter to cross-train for off-road motorcycling competition, I was in need of a quieter & more compact stationary bicycle since I have been using a free one (that broke) or my mountainbike on a stationary stand (which is very noisy, no thanks to knobby tires). I was planning to purchase an older, used stationary bicycle off of Craigslist but decided to give a look at what the cost of a new one was for comparison. Upon reading the good reviews, I took a chance & purchased this unit.This bicycle is a bargain for what you get! It is heavy, sturdily built and unbelievably quiet! I can’t emphasize the quiet part enough, I hear my shoe laces bouncing off the cages more then anything else! The traditional metal cleat pedals & cages are great at keeping your locked in. With a 33″ inseam I had no issue getting the bike adjusted to fit me properly. Assembly took about 15 minutes and was simple to do with provided tools & easy instructions. The seat wasn’t bothersome for me as some people have complained. The provided time/calorie/odo meter is a nice touch. Pedaling is smooth & the tensioner works well. The adjustable feet to compensate for an uneven floor work well. The only real complaint I can even think of is the fact it doesn’t free-wheel, so you must decrease speed after a sprint easily or use the manual tensioner stop otherwise you could jam your knee. Not a real big issue, just something you adapt to if you’ve been using machines/bicycles that do free wheel.So in short, If you’ve been looking for a good stationary bike for a great price, this is it! Buy it. It’s a bargain at twice the price!***3 month update*** Still as quiet as ever, even being used at 4-5X’s a week/3+ hours per week.

Easy to assemble, quiet, sturdy and solid.
This unit came ahead of schedule. It is easy to assemble with tools provided. Most of the fittings are based on using an L wrench. The nuts and bolts provided are all of top quality. The fit is also excellent so putting it together is not a problem. I suppose it took about 40 minutes but mostly because of carefully reading and checking the instruction. Once together. We put it in place on a Sunny mat which is a very good idea to also purchase. Moving it isnĂ¢Â€Â™t hard as there are small sheets at the front bottom. The unit sits very sturdily and without any rocking or vibration. The feet are adjustable to make sure it sits well. When in use, the unit is relatively quiet where one could easily watch TV. The computer is easy to use but it is reset on command and not able to continuously track more than one person. I would advise having a small book around for each to write down the record of each ride. The information given is time, speed, mileage covered and calories burnt. It can be set to display anyone of these or to continue rotate between these four metrics. There is no place for a screen or laptop or phone at the handle bar area. The saddle can be adjusted in height and fore and aft. The handle bar is fixed as is the tilt of the saddle. One thing would greatly improve this unit is the handle bar height and the seat tilt could be adjusted. It would also be nice if the seat could be swapped out for any regular bike saddle. Overall for this price point, this is an attractive, small profile, quiet and competent stationary exercise bike. It isnĂ¢Â€Â™t any where close to as enjoyable as riding outside in nature. But with our severe winters, this will have to do.

Great beginner bike!
Great price (less than $120 when purchased) for a beginner bike. I wanted to see if I would stick with it before I invested a lot of money in a bike. I’m 5’10” and 200lbs (okay, 210lbs). First, the good:1) Very sturdy, regardless of pedaling intensity2) Easy assembly3) Great value, especially if you’re not sure if you’ll use an exercise bike4) Chain is actually very quiet; no slippage issues like reported with other belt bikes; I thought this would be a problem but it has worked to my advantage5) 20 lb flywheel is more than adequate and provides a smooth pedaling actionNow, the bad:1) Handle bars are a bit uncomfortable, but were easy to construct a custom wood laptop holder2) Seat is uncomfortable; currently investigating a good seat cover3) Seat is not interchangeable and not a standard bike seat mount; it’s bolted to the mount; no tilt function and limited adjustment for height and front-to-back4) The monitor is of limited use and hard to see (it’s not back lit); it toggles among calories, time, and mileage, but I use it only for time5) Front rollers are way too small in diameter compared to metal roller mounts; use extreme care not to scratch floor6) Had to glue catch that engages monitor sensor; should have two screws to prevent slippageSummary: Great bike if you’re on the “fence” about cycling; not enough adjustment for taller than 5’10” but could handle more than 210 lbs with no problem. I’m very happy with this purchase.

it is winter, and we have an older treadmill in the basement that gets its fair share of usage, but lately my right achilles tendon has been bothersome so i looked at moving to indoor cycling. i was choosing between getting an indoor trainer that i could put my mountain bike on, and a stationary bike (either an exercise bike or a spin bike). the indoor trainer would have been great, as it would allow me to keep using my mountain bike indoors… so that when summer comes around again i would be well conditioned already, but the set-up would take up a bit of space. so i decided on a more compact stationary bike. there were lots to choose from on the amazon website alone, and i spent hours studying the product literatures and reviews both on amazon and on youtube. i finally decided on the sunny sf-b1203 with budget being a big deciding factor and i am beyond satisfied. i ordered it before midnight and it was delivered the next afternoon! assembly was pretty straight-forward, and although it did come with the assembly tools, having “real” tools like an adjustable wrench and ratcheting socket set made the job easier. in less than an hour i was riding on the bike even without opening the assembly instruction manual. it is certainly not a peloton, but for its price, you will get a decent looking bike that takes up little space and gives a good workout. i set it up in a tight little corner of our family room where i can bike while watching and following a spin workout video on the tv and having music on a separate bluetooth speaker. it is very well built, all the pieces match perfectly and the built product is very stable and solid. i stand under 6 feet yet the small looking bike does not feel small at all and in fact gives a very comfortable ride. having said that, you can get a good workout depending on how hard you give it a go, and there are some great routines in the sunny facebook page. this bike has a chain drive not a belt drive, but is still smooth and quiet. you can use it while the rest of the household is asleep. hopefully it will prove to be durable because i will certainly be using it as often as i can. if you can’t hit the gym while on pandemic mode, or go outdoors because of the winter season, this bike will be your best training buddy.

Its a decent exercise bike. Assembling it was a bit of a hassle but since am used to assembling stuff from ikea, managed to do it anyways. Runs fine and meets the purpose of a compact home exercise bike. There is some weird clattering sound in the flywheel at low rpm otherwise no complaints.

Bike is great, had to order memory foam seat cover as factory seat is hard and uncomfortable for long spin session!
