MERACH Exercise Bike, Brake Pad Stationary Bike with Exclusive App, Low Noise Indoor Cycling Bike with 300lbs Weight Capacity, Tablet Mount and Fitness Courses for Weight Loss

Me facino en cuanto la calidad del producto y diseño.

Overall, quite satisfied with the bike. It was easy but a bit involved to assemble. All tools, bolts, washers etc. were included along with great pictures showing the assembling process.

I’ve ridden it several times, around 40 miles or so. It is very quiet as most have stated. However, mine has a slight rubbing sound that comes and goes. It seems dependent on what resistance level is set.

Pros:
*foldability
*position of the resistance bands. They work well and retract very nicely to the frame of the bike when not in use
*resistance knob is very well positioned; very easy to get to beneath the retracted resistance bands
*very stable. I’m 255 lbs. it remains stationary throughout my pedaling at various resistance levels.
*bluetooth works very well with app

Cons: (note of these are not deal breakers, just ‘be nice’ category)
*acceptable height. I’m just under 6’1″ and find I can’t get the seat up high enough to get better extension of my legs. It is acceptable and works fine, just not the extension I would like as I get on my ebike.
*display is not backlite and the numbers are not illuminated. it would be nice if either one of these were present, the numbers are well displayed though
*although foldable, I dislike having to screw in and unscrew the knob to fold and unfold the bike. I’ve had other stationary bikes where you simply pull out the knob adjust as desired and let the knob slip back into place, it being spring loaded. This bike’s method is ok once you get used to it; just be nice to simply pull the knob out and let it slide back in once the adjustment is as desired.
*wheels for moving around – it has them, however, you really have to lower the bike quite a bit for them to roll smoothly thus making it harder to move into compact areas when the bike is upright.
*no battery backup – although I haven’t confirmed this yet being I just installed the batteries, based on what the manual says, the odometer will reset with a replacement of the 2 batteries to activate the display. A previous stationary bike I had contained a small (CR2032 if I remember correctly) that retained the odometer setting. Thus, every time you replace the batteries, the odometer will revert back to a ‘0’ reading.

Merach app – It installed easily on my android tablet. With bluetooth active on the tablet, the app connected to the bike with no issues. On subsequent uses, it connected with no issues or need to try and reconnect. In the ‘free training’ mode, all display items worked great except resistance. I contacted Merach. Since the bike sets the resistance manually, this value will not be displayed. If you have one of the bikes where resistance is automatically set, then this value will be displayed. The one value I would have liked displayed in the ‘free training’ mode is speed which is missing. Not a big deal, just be nice. If you connect the bike to the app, then the physical display will be bypassed. If the app is not used, then the physical display will work normally.
I only tried the online riding courses once. It worked fine. Showed nice display of path in the country. It was fun to use.

I would recommend this bike with no reservations. I only gave it a 4 star rating because of the cons above which again are not deal breakers, just things that I didn’t like.

I recently purchased the MERACH Exercise Bike for home use, and it has become an essential part of my daily routine.

Firstly, the build quality is excellent. The bike feels sturdy and stable, providing a safe and comfortable ride every time. The adjustable seat cushion is ergonomic and supportive, ensuring I can exercise for extended periods without discomfort.

The electronic LED monitor is a standout feature. It’s easy to read and provides essential workout metrics such as time, speed, distance, calories burned, and heart rate. I appreciate how motivating it is to track my progress in real-time, which keeps me focused and motivated during workouts.

The silent belt drive mechanism is another big plus. It operates smoothly and quietly, allowing me to exercise without disturbing others in the household. This is particularly important during early morning or late-night workouts.

I also love the exclusive app that comes with the bike. It provides various workout programs and challenges, which adds variety to my routine and helps me achieve my fitness goals more effectively. The app is user-friendly and syncs seamlessly with the bike’s monitor, enhancing the overall workout experience.

Assembly was straightforward, thanks to clear instructions and all the necessary tools included in the package. I had the bike set up and ready to use in under an hour.

Overall, I highly recommend the MERACH Exercise Bike for anyone looking to add a reliable and effective cardio workout option to their home gym. It combines durability, comfort, and advanced features like the LED monitor and app integration to deliver a superior exercise experience. Whether you’re a beginner or a fitness enthusiast, this bike is an excellent choice for achieving your fitness goals conveniently at home!

La compré en Thanks Giving, tardó en llegar bastante (creo unas dos o tres semanas) valió la pena la espera y el precio (después lo bajaron aún mas). Las terminaciones de la pintura, soldadura, piezas y acabados en general es MUY buena. La recomiendo. Según leí es la misma del modelo PELOTON (pero sin el Tablet) que cuesta unas 10 veces mas, y la verdad si lo creo. La App Merach yo uso lo básico, pero se que es compatible con videos, tambian la App Zwift, debido a que yo la uso escuchando música no he detallado la App.
