About Exercise Bikes
Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, exercise bikes continue to be popular options for home exercise. They offer the same aerobic benefits of riding a bicycle at any time, in any weather, without leaving the comfort and safety of home. Exercise bikes don't take up much space, require little or no balance or coordination, and can provide an effective workout for all levels of users, from beginners to serious competitors. While the same could be said for a number of other types of home fitness equipment, the exercise bike is one of the few that allows you to watch television or read a magazine while you work out. For many people, having convenient access to quality exercise equipment is critical to sticking with a long-term exercise program.

Outstanding March 7, 2010
Craig N. B. (Florida)
Excellent value for the money. Again Amazon.com delivered it in excellent condition. The bike was easy to assemble; done in less than 1 hour. Programing the computer for custom profiles was the most difficult and that was not hard. The bike operates very smoothly and quietly. The heart monitor is excellent. The bike has a sturdy frame, large firm seat & back rest. The only down side is that there is no place to store the TV remote, the underseat basket is too far to bend over while in motion. Again the bike is a great value.

I found the Nautilus R514 very quiet, quite sturdy, and relatively easy to assemble. I would make the following suggestions to anyone purchasing this exercise bike.
1. Go to the Nautilus site, find the Assembly Manual, download and print it. It contains all the latest addendae, and the printout drawings will be larger and easier to read.
2. Spend some time reading the instructions while examining the parts before you start assembly. This may keep you from having to reinstall some of the parts
3. The latest manual starts with removing the seat rail from the frame. Skip to Step 2 instead and install the front and rear stabilizer feet first. This will keep the frame stable while you remove the seat rail (step 1).
4. As you install the bolts in a particular assembly, don't tighten them until you have all of them in place. This will help you to achieve correct alignment.
About the only complaint (a minor one) I have is the method of seat adjustment. To move the seat forward or rearward, you have to just about completely remove the knob that holds the seat in place. It's not a problem if you are the only user since you can just leave the seat in place once you achieve the correct position. However, for multi-user groups, you may find the procedure annoying after a while. It does, though, hold the seat very firmly with no wobble.
Extremely Pleased!!! February 27, 2010

First let me comment on Amazon.com. Wonderful!!! We've ordered several things from them and have always gotten them before the time frame stated and always in excellent condition. Now, the product... Again, wonderful! The package arrived in excellent condition. My husband put it together (bless him!) and he didn't have any trouble at all and didn't need my help at all - took him maybe an hour. Tho' I've only used it a couple of times I just love it! I have terrible back trouble and haven't been able to use the Bowflex Treadclimber that we have because of the strain it puts on my lower back. This bike is sweet relief! I worked up a sweat and felt ZERO strain. I'm so excited to be able to get exercise again! Thank you Nautilus and Amazon.com!!!
Extremely quiet! February 9, 2010

This is my 3rd exercise bike for home use. This is by far the quietest/smoothest of them all and is worth the $100 or so extra. Plus you do get a much better warranty when you compare the time frames. The seat back could be slightly more comfortable (I wish more companies would make them out of mesh) but that is my only complaint. It certainly does require two people to put together and a power screwdriver will save you lots of time with install. Expect about an hour for 2 people to assemble.
Good choice for recumbent bike February 1, 2010

It was delivered promptly and my husband assembled it in about an hour without complaints. It is a substantial machine--looks and feels solid. The display works well for us. My husband uses the heart monitor to keep record of his progress. All we need now is to use the bike conscientously so that it will help us meet our fitness goals.
