Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike Under The Microscope
As for the shipping, the Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike got to me promptly thanks to Amazon. Now onto the bike itself - assembling it is a piece of cake. I was able to piece all of the parts and get the whole thing working within 30 minutes or so. Thumbs up on that department.

The Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike is VERY silent. That holds true even when I'm biking fast (well, for me 20 miles an hour is fast enough). The build - it feels very sturdy, solid, and well built...and what's funny is that you can move it around your room pretty easily! It's NOT heavy.

When you are working out, it doesn't wiggle or bounce you...making sure you get excellent exercise even if you are reading or watching TV.

To cut the long story short, I'm getting an excellent workout on this bike and that's coming from someone who is suffering from hip joints. I can handle Level 2 difficulty without any joint pain, and I have been at it for about a week now or so.

I don't think I will have any problems moving up the levels. I will continue to challenge myself until I reach Level 8 difficulty. I'm confident I can do so, I just need NOT to go faster.

Bottom line, the Phoenix 99608 Magnetic Recumbent Exercise Bike is an excellent bike. All of the other great reviews I read about it are all true. Since it came from one of the most reputable health and fitness equipment manufacturers - Phoenix, this is NOT surprising.

Highly recommended!
