VRAi Fitness SXB-350 Bluetooth Smart Folding Exercise Bike-Kinomap Smartphone App Compatible and Live Video Streaming Classes-Our Magnetic Resistance Folding Bike is Best Exercise Bikes for Home Use

With the the pandemic raging and keeping me from the gym and spin class, I decided to get myself an indoor bike and after weeks of research settled on this one. It's super comfortable and fairly sturdy especially given the price. This exercise bike was such a reasonable price, I thought I might be taking a chance as it had no reviews but it has turned around to be one of the best purchases I have ever made on Amazon (a proper hidden gem). It is quite comfortable, easy to use and exactly what I needed. I had a bit of a challenge connecting the bluetooth to my smartphone but I got in touch with the seller who sent me detailed instructions and boy was happy I connected the bike to my iPhone. It has unleashed a whole new host of coaching and exercise classes which has really kept me motivated and I feel for the very first time in my life, I am going to use an exercise bike to the very end and achieve my fitness goals. The assembly went well and the instructions were easy to follow, took me about half an hour to put it all together . I would recommend this bike to anyone looking to buy an indoor bike.

This is a great bike, sturdy, easy to use and very smooth pedaling. I picked this for the Bluetooth connection, which works with other apps and devices, not just their own.Pros:- Solid bike- Bluetooth works with oculus, holofit, etc.- Easy to adjust and storeCons:- Assembly instructions are worthless. Look at a picture of the finished bike and figure out where each piece goes. Most pieces are obvious or the bolts are different etc so it's not too hard.- The display is poor, not very bright, feels flimsy. If you're using it just for time, rpm and distance then it's fine.- Calorie count on this bike is way off. By a factor of 10-12. You burn about 10-15 calories per minute on a bike, this will tell you you've done 100. Holofit even tells me the calories from the device are sus so it recalculates them. I wonder if they forgot a decimal point on the calorie calculation.- The companion app is crap. It's got very little content and what it has feels like those off brand knock offs you sometimes see, churned out on a shoestring budget hoping someone accidently buys it.Overall though, once set up if you ignore the calories (use a smart watch, holofit, or similar instead), then you've got a good bike. Pairing this with an oculus with holofit turns exercise into a game, which makes it a lot easier to keep going for 30+ minutes at a time, especially if you don't particularly like exercise or riding a bike.

I received my bike sooner than expected, and I couldn’t be happier! The assembly took only about 20 minutes, which is perfect for someone who isn’t particularly handy. Plus, I love that it syncs effortlessly with my favorite fitness apps, helping me stay on track with my workouts. This bike has made getting fit at home so much easier!

What a bike!!!! Absolute bargain as well.I have been using this for a while now and I love it. The resistance levels are very good and responsive. I like the fact that this bike is easy to assemble and fold away. I also like that this bike is compatible with iPad and iPhone and the kinomap app provides a tremendous amount of training and coaching resources. The only thing I wish it had was auto resistance however I am also realistic enough to know that bikes with auto resistance usually cost an arm and a leg. All in all it is a solid bike and I am extremely happy with it.

I bought this product as i wanted to use it with an interactive app. I much prefer to be outside but i find myself home bound more at the moment so the Kinomap app is a good way of making a cycling machine more appealing to me.I did see a number of negative reviews before purchase around the cycle computer but was confident in my ability to troubleshoot. This turned out to be a mistake.The bike was easy enough to build and is solid enough. The amount of resistance is just enough for me as a regular cyclist.Setting up the app and connecting isn't too difficult and you can get it up and running without too much hassle.The problem as so many others have reported is that the readings for Cadence/heartbeat/power freeze regularly. In a 40 minute session is found this happened on average 3 or 4 times. The only cure i have found is to remove and replace the batteries mid session.I triedTwo different devices. an iphone and a ipadmake sure i used new high quality batteries.In the app, there is Vrai SXB-350 hardware profile and on the website they suggest using the FTMS one.in desperation i also tried-unplugging the heartbeat sensorDifferent resistance levels.none of this made any difference.In the end i contacted their technical support. And as others have noted, they did not respond.In my opinion, At best this makes the look disorganised or incompetent. At worst you could take the view that they know the computer doesnt work and this is a bit of a Scam as they have no intention of engaging in any support. They just hope that at over 20kgs you wont bother returning it.I didn't really want to return it, so i have purchased a wahoo cadence sensor which is strapped to the crank and a Livlov arm band heartrate monitor. cost £60. Works perfectly :)Knowing what i do now, i would have bought a cheaper bike without app connectivity and purchased the mentioned sensors separately.The supplied computer makes a good holder for a phone or tablet but that's about it.

If you buy this solely for the mechanical elements, it’s a good bike, although I’d like the higher resistance levels to be more resistive - nothing on this bike actually feels like a hill climb.The electronics are very basic and the panel looks and feels very cheaply made.There are no instructions for using the Bluetooth function with anything other than Kinomap, which is annoying. I haven’t found a way to enter pairing mode at all, so forget pairing this with an Apple Watch or anything similar.
