Exercise Bike Benefits
So you know you want to buy some type of home exercise equipment – but why buy an exercise bike?
One of the top benefits of exercise bikes is that they are probably the most affordable piece of exercise equipment on the market right now. Starting around $200 and ranging up to $2500, exercise bikes offer a huge variety of models for every price range and every exercise level.
It is however advisable to keep in mind that you will get what you pay for with an exercise bike. Don’t expect a $200 exercise bike to come with all of the bells and whistles and last you over 3 years. However if you are on a budget, an exercise bike is a great way to get in shape for less.

Your Exercise Bike Seat – A Smooth Ride
The better your exercise bike seat, the more comfortable the ride. Nobody will continue an exercise bike fitness program if every ride is agonizing. Choose a comfortable seat and keep on pedaling.
What are the choices for a comfortable bicycle seat? First, most any exercise bicycle can be modified to use a regular bicycle seat. So if you find a comfortable bicycle seat, it can become your exercise bike seat. Usually it’s just a matter of loosening one nut under the seat and pulling one seat off and slipping on another.
Many exercise bikes come with very wide seats, much wider than regular bicycles. Most of the weight of the rider is supported by the seat. Less weight is supported by the arms and legs. That’s usually more comfortable, but not always. The major muscles in the hips are very involved in bicycle pedaling. Over a long pedaling session, if you’re sitting on those muscles, you can develop cramps in the muscles.
