      Madhavi Patel Yes they do. I just removed them from my IC4. It was delivered two days ago and both myself (5’11) and wife (5’2) complained of our knees hitting the water bottle holders. We have ours in the garage with my work bench less than a foot away. For now we’ll keep the water bottle on the workbench.

    We tackled assembling the bike as a family project. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxzg0clhbtRf2gGxPkVETFKJJKGqdsorQu The package is heavy, but I have 2 teen boys that were able to move it. The written instructions were great- we didn't need to watch the videos, but it was good knowing that the option was there if we needed it. After we were able to get it set up, the boys each rode 3 miles and I rode 8 and the bike stayed quiet. The display is easy to reset, and you can put it on whichever setting you are using (time, distance, calories, etc). I will say that my butt is a little sore from the seat, but that could be because I haven't rode in a while. While it is comfortable for me, it was not comfortable with the seat position for my friend (could not move the seat back far enough and he slightly looked like a kid riding a tricycle that he had outgrown). He also said that the seat hurt his manly parts. We are going to look for a different seat that will be compatible with this bike for him.I did purchase the Wahoo Cadence sensor and strapped it to the crank of one of the pedals. This will sync with my Apple Watch, iPhone and will import data in to my Health app. Wahoo does have other sensors available other than cadence. I can also keep either my phone or my iPad on the display and they both feel pretty secure.

    I also went Schwinn. But the upgraded to the Power SC Schwinn which includes 4iiii cadence and the upgrade Echelon Power Console (no battery required). This one does not have the magnet on the wheel however, it's completely silent, unlike what you mention in the video. Although the Echelon does not work with the Ant++ feature for Apple Products; it just means my iWatch/iPhone doesn't track the mileage from the bike.
    I did not like the IC version as I wanted a smooth spin. It was a personal preference. It works well with the Peloton app, and other apps. The warranty and quality of workmanship/materials is eons better than the peloton. But I paid for it. Total Cost $3500 for the bike and set up. Technology will change, but the spin bike will still be working 10 years from now. :). Thanks for the review!

    We only have to use it for around 4 - 5 minutes. I saw the scientific doc on tv years ago. The heart/body gets sufficient benefits from using it for 5 minutes compared to 20 minutes, same thing. Of course, you have to be in fairly good shape already to pedal at 60 - 80% strength for 30 seconds intervals. Then with added dumbbell workout, voilà, you're in ship shape.

      No need for anything extra if you have an IC4. The bike comes with a heart rate monitor band (just pair it with your ipad/iphone rather than the bike itself). And the IC4 has a cadence sensor built in that pairs with the app as well

      you can totally use the cadence display on the IC4 itself, but I find it's difficult to judge as it's a coarse bar graph rather than a numeric display. But bluetooth is built into the IC4 so there is nothing to buy additionally... just connect the IC4 via bluetooth to your phone or tablet and the cadence will also show up on the app screen (which is much better)

      @danbratcher8192 4 роки тому +3

      you gauge your resistance level based on perceived resistance 0 to 10. so turn your dial to the point you don't feel any brake resistance. thats level 1, mark the dial with a small piece of tape at the 12 oclock position.. Now continue to pedal and turn your resistance dial cw, to the point you would consider to be the hardest level you could maintain pedaling. This is level 10 if it took 1 complete rotation great then 6 0clock would be level 5. if it took two rotations then 1 complete rotation (back at 12 o'clock) would be your level 5. Use the dial as a clock face you'll figure it out

Cadence is totally useless because you can peddle fast without any weight on the wheels, it wont do anything to your health.

      sadly the Android version of the Peloton app doesn't show that information on the screen, only the Apple version does. But if you have Android, you can run both the Peloton app and something like the Kinetic app at the same time (spit screen). The Kinetic app will show you heart rate and cadence. Not as nice but it works

      You can only access the leaderboard if you have Peloton branded equipment.

    Amazon has them in stock right now and showing only 12 left. It also has the 5 payment plan option directly from your choice of payment. I wasn’t planning to buy this soon but since the payment option spread over 5 months popped up I jumped on it!

    My cycle machines just arrived and the bit that touches the wheel to slow it down won't touch the wheel even if I screw it up all the way (the button)
    Does anyone know what's wrong ?

    Thanks for the great video. I just purchased the bike last week and I love it. How did you sync the heart rate to the iPad? It works on my phone with the Apple Watch but not on my iPad.

      you can get the blueheart app on your ipad and connect the apple watch to your iPad that way

    Don’t buy a cadence sensor, you need a power meter, get favero assioma pedals they will measure both cadence and power and link to the peloton app. You can’t train properly without power you will DEFINITELY cheat otherwise. Then you can use ZWIFT too, which IMO is better than peloton classes

      Will Andriod work with ZWIFT? As my Samsung will not show cadence on peloton!

    Thank you so much for this video! It's a reasonable alternative to the peloton bike, especially costwise, obviously.

    With these sensors being read by the app... does your rank show on the peloton app as if you are riding live on a peloton?
