I'm looking into a stationary bike for the first time. Your videos are great. What I'm looking for is an option to ride virtual routes, without a subscription. I don't want classes of any kind. Just some stats and a route. Does that exist? Thanks
this is a NICE bike. Love the look and I had never seen how the "classes" on the screen . I can see the appeal. They have a sale right now and I'm really thinking it might be worth it (the BOOM bike is their economy model and with the sale pricing it's just $150 more than the echelon)... really want this!
Hi! I'm in the process of choosing a indoor bike and was wondering about your experience with the Free Beats Lit bike. Have you encountered any issues with the pedals or the bike overall?
Hey, I just heard of your channel. You seem like the perfect person to ask as you also have a large inseam and your videos are very informative. I am 6’3 with long legs. After reviewing your videos. I was wondering if the schwinn IX4 will be good? Or if there is a similar bike at a similar price. Thanks!
What I don't like about this bike is that there isn't a freeride competitive option... I consider myself a moderately competitive person, and I love the leader board, but it would be nice to be able to race against others... Especially in real time...
Pretty mainstream, you’d have to bring a separate display to do peloton classes, but the freebeat gives you all your metrics so you could follow along with peloton classes
I wouldn't actually say they're better or worse than peloton, mostly just a different style with a big focus on cadence and rhythm of the beat. The leaderboard and scoring system makes it addicting 🤙
Unfortunately, this bike is trash. I bought it in August and it arrived with a broken usb-c cable. After a back and forth with their customer service and two months later, I haven’t received an actual replacement, but one wrong cable and an adapter for the wrong cable which doesn’t even power the monitor anymore and now I can’t even use the bike. Clearly cheap parts as now the flywheel and chains are squeaking horribly as I attempted to at least get my money’s worth while I waited for cables they didn’t expedite. The worst purchase i’ve ever made. Biggest headache. Don’t buy from Freebeat.
I'm having a similar experience now, too. I was disappointed to learn They use FedEx for shipping. Every package I get from FedEx, the box is destroyed and the items are damaged. And now, I have to send mine back as well due to substantial damage during shipping. I'm concerned about their customer service as well based on the responses they've already given me. When I looked at the shipping label, it's on top of another label and I'm concerned they may have sent me a return that was damaged? I didn't buy a refurbished bike so I'm really bummed. I'm hoping maybe they reused the box. If it hadn't been damaged by written sending me a return and damaged during shipping, I think I really would have liked it but I'm starting to get suspicious with so many paid promotions and a lack of honest reviews.
So you are now resorting to click baiting since you never truly answer your own question on whether or not it's a Peloton alternative. Maybe I missed it in your conclusion, so please enlighten me. If you are reviewing something on its own merits then that's great, but dropping the Peloton name to get views has led me to unsubscribe.
I guess the idea is to present the facts so the viewer can use critical thinking to draw their own conclusions based on the facts presented, rather than me make a definitive subjective claim. For some people this will be the best peloton alternative, but it’s not for everyone. Thanks for your time as a subscriber, I’m sorry I let you down.

Totally agree, glad seeing the classes helped!

You’re welcome
Can the just ride be used with peloton app?

Thanks 🙏 I think the ic4 would fit you well, the sunny 1805 is a comparable model that works well for us giraffes 🦒

That be cool
Do you recommend the Boom bike as a cheaper option?
I never tried it, but it is certainly less expensive
Can you use the screen for other internet related searches/viewing?
I don’t think so
Is the music mainstream music? Also can you use it in freee ride mode to do peloton classes?
Pretty mainstream, you’d have to bring a separate display to do peloton classes, but the freebeat gives you all your metrics so you could follow along with peloton classes
No need for bike shoes like Pelton?
How would you compare that to Pelton bike+?
Does it need a subscription?
Are there any additional costs involved for the classes?
Yes
i’m a music person so this is probably the bike for me!!
Look great
Never heard of this bike. Do you think these classes are better or on par with Peloton?

Is there a way to listen to your own music?!
I think you’d have to pay your music independently from the app
Just prey you don’t need customer support, they are utterly hopeless and take many days to respond and when they do they have no idea.
