DFC SC-W002X

Advantages: Reasonable price, compactness, mobility. Excellent informative scoreboard (battery operated, included): number of revolutions, rotation speed (in RPM), workout time and calories burned (about of course). With the only button you select the display mode, of course the most convenient thing is SCAN - when all the parameters are displayed in turn. I made sure that this is a very necessary thing, as it allows you to objectively assess the load. There is no heart rate monitor and is not needed. When you stop turning, the measurement stops. The next time the measurement will continue from the same moment, even if a week has passed. The direction of rotation of the pedals does not matter. You can twist one way and then the other. The counter will continue to count according to the "+1" algorithm. If you need to reset everything to zero, then hold down a single button. Conveniently. It is quite possible to twist with your hands, setting the simulator on the table, well, or whatever is convenient for you.

Disadvantages: There is something to complain about in the assembly, for example, a slight play in the pedal fork. Periodic creaking when working inside, it seems like something inside clings sometimes. No matter how hard I tried, I could not fully screw the load screw - the feeling that there is no thread there. It becomes harder to turn, but tightening it to the point where pedaling is impossible or at least very difficult - I did not succeed. Possibly marriage. When working under load, when the screw is tightly tightened, the pedal sleeve begins to warm up and everything that comes into contact with it. You can feel that the pedals are getting warm, but touching the metal axle is already dangerous - you can get burned! The instructions do not include any training recommendations, no medical advice at all.

Comment: In operation exactly one month. Ideal if you need an exercise bike but don't want to spend a lot of money. You know how it happens, I bought running shoes, but I never started running. This simulator will allow you to understand if you really need an exercise bike. I think a big plus is the ability to work with your hands and mobility. You can twist and watch TV, twist and work at the computer, eat in the kitchen and continue twisting - the main thing is that the simulators have a good emphasis and a non-slip surface is desirable. As a sports equipment, it is most likely not suitable, since it is not clear what kind of load it creates. There are questions about the diameter of the turnover (it seems too small), but as a simulator for rehabilitation or exercise therapy - that's it. Well, if you need to remove it - considering the folding legs - it can be easily removed into any closet. You must understand that this is an entry-level model. But even if this simulator lasts half a year, next time you will already know what you need and will approach the choice with an understanding of your needs. Considering the price, the purchase is absolutely justified.

Advantages: The main thing is compactness and ease of use.

Disadvantages: Initially, the load was not regulated, the bolt did not reach the bushing. He cured it by placing a 3mm washer.

Comment: I bought it for rehabilitation, I just twist it back and forth, hands and feet. Very happy !!! I recommend to everyone!!! An excellent alternative to an expensive motorcycle honey.

Advantages: Size, simplicity.

Disadvantages: On the second day of use, the display stopped showing, but I don't know how to replace the batteries.

Comment:

Advantages: Light weight and dimensions, clear image on the display, ease of use.

Disadvantages: Not stable. To pedal with the proper convenience, you need to rest the simulator against a wall or furniture.

Comment: If you think that it will be possible to pedal while sitting at the table, check the table height in advance: if the calculation is incorrect, your knees will hit the table when moving.

Advantages: Cheap, unpretentious, compact

Disadvantages: I drove on the floor, the central axis heats up very much - you can get burned.
