Concept2 BikeErg 2900 Stationary Exercise Bike | PM5 Monitor, Adjustable Air Resistance for Exercise, Conditioning and Strength Training | Commercial and Home Use

I have had Concept 2 Rowers in the past and found them to be great for losing weight. I lost 40 lbs by using one over the course of about 6 months without altering my diet. The problem with rowers is most people (including me) never really master the proper technique. We end up using way too much back and arms. That will still get your heart rate elevated so it is effective for weight loss but it can cause back injuries. You don't need any special technique to ride a bike.I'm 63 now and sold my rower a few years back. The pounds are creeping back on. I was researching exercise bikes when I came across the Bikeerg. I did not know it even existed. Concept 2 makes top of the line equipment and I was already familiar with the PM5 monitor and how the drag system works so I ordered one. It arrived expertly packaged and I was able to assemble it by myself although an extra set of hands would be helpful. The machine is commercial grade like all their equipment. You will see numerous reviews of the Bikeerg popping up on youtube and I haven't seen anything negative about it.I have used it almost everyday since getting it in mid March and already feel much better. It is a low impact way to get great cardio workouts. I would highly recommend using a heart rate chest strap to maximize your results.The seat was too hard for my liking but I solved that by getting a padded cover from Amazon. I also made some padded handlebar covers which make it more comfortable for me. There are endless seat and handlebar adjustments so any size rider can get comfortable. I am 6'3 and weigh 250 and have no problem getting everything adjusted. I just wheel it up close to my computer monitor and open up my favorite youtube playlist and start sweating. Concept 2 will send you suggested workouts for each day via email if you sign up at their site. You will never get bored with all the available options. I like to race against my best times with the goal of setting a PR every session and it is easy to do that with the PM 5 Monitor.There are many different exercise bikes on the market. Some much cheaper and some much more expensive. The Concept 2 Bikeerg is a heavy duty, built for a lifetime piece of equipment. I would recommend it for anyone who is looking for a quality exercise bike.

My bikerg showed up in great shape. Assembly was crazy simple and easily done with one person. The instructions have a plethora of photos to assist you. There are no creaks, knocks, or klunks. It pedals along nice and smoothly offering an amazing workout. I have a concept 2 rower I've used for the last several years. I knew the quality of my rower and had high expectations for this bikerg. This machine is worthy of the price tag. My rower has not had a single issue in 6 years of ownership (other than a wipe down and chain oil). I fully expect this machine to provide me use for many many years to come. I am super happy with my purchase.

I’ve had this about a month now. Easy to assemble (easier with a helper, and much easier and faster with a power drill with a screw-tightening attachment.) Rock solid. The screen, Bluetooth connection to iPhone, and logging to the website (free) are easy to read and implement. And it operates wonderfully. I’ve used it 6 days a week and give it the highest marks. I replaced the seat with a far more comfortable one: count on doing that unless you have a butt of iron. Seat and pedals are easily replaceable with standard bicycle parts. Once assembled, it’s easy to tilt and roll it around if you need to. Documentation is very good, and lots of YouTube info on it. I held my breath — it’s a big item, and exercise equipment is often unused — but this has been a very successful purchase. I find it much better than the cheaper alternatives I’ve briefly tried.Addendum Feb 22, 2023. Three years later and it's been absolutely trouble-free and a great addition to my life and conditioning efforts. Not a moment's trouble. I've ridden over 16 million meters on it in three years. Newer models, I understand, come with a mount that can handle an iPad Pro. I bought a 3D-party stand awhile back that works well. I watch movies on the iPad while I do my 45-90-minute workouts.

We had the concept 2 rower and decided that we wanted the bike instead. I’ve had it for 24 hours and my boyfriend is so happy that we made the trade. He’s used it twice so far.I was the lucky one to put it together while he was at work because I couldn’t stare at the box anymore and it wasn’t as hard as I expected it to. The hardest thing was the weight of the bike since I’m not as strong as I used to be lol. My boyfriend used it when I was cooking and I could hear it but it wasn’t that loud, and he apparently used it in the morning when I was sleeping. I had no idea because the bike isn’t loud when it’s in use at all, which is perfect since he wakes up early to workout before heading to work while I’m still sleeping.I’m yet to use the bike but I’m sure that I’m going to love it as well, and won’t be waking my boyfriend up when I’m working out later during the night when he is sleeping.Also, it arrived a lot sooner than it had originally said. I figured I’d have to wait a few days but it was at my door 2 days after I had ordered it. Thank you for the quick delivery!!

Concept 2 products are amazing quality and gives great work out. We are familiar with Concept 2 from owning Model D and Model E, and limited dealings with their Customer Service is great. The value for the world class equipment is outstanding. I use the Bikerg every day and love the workouts and the challenge, the harder you work the greater the resistance. Highly recommend the Bikeerg or any Concept 2 product!
