I'm 6'6", and weigh 375 pounds - owned this bike for 6 months
I purchased this bike from Amazon back in May. I've now owned it over 6 months. I'm a big fat guy who's also extremely tall. I wanted a bike that I could ride extensively, but would support my weight. I did a lot of research before deciding on this, so I want to report that I've ridden the bike daily, and have put over 1500 miles into it. It still feels just as solid and mechanically sound as when I got it. It's VERY heavy, due to it's sturdiness, and although it does have useful features to make it easier to move (it folds up, and the feet have little wheels), I figure most people will prefer having it stay in a set space. I've ridden the heck out of it and haven't had any major issues at all. It's extremely quiet for exercise equipment, and for just $200, I can't recommended it enough.
UPDATE: I just came across this review from about 3 years ago, and it has lots of likes, so I figure an update after 3 years is always ultra useful.
After I bought the bike, I was hyped on making it part of my daily routine and dieting to lose weight. I was fairly easily able to make riding it for an hour in the morning a regular part of my day (just put on the TV, or some music, and drink a big cup of coffee). It was a great workout - 14 miles a day.
Now, I've lost over 80 pounds and although I don't ride the bike as often as I was at first, it's still just as solid and functional. The only "complaint" is that when the total mileage on the odometer hit a certain number (I can't remember specifically which. May have been 2000), it would no longer go up. I had to take out the batteries for a second to have it reset back to zero. Very minor complaint. All in all, I'm VERY happy I purchased this product.
