Amazon.com Product Description
Cycling improves your cardiovascular health, boosts the functioning of the heart and blood vessels, and decreases your risk of heart disease. Now you can enjoy all the benefits of cycling without spending a ton of money with the affordable InStride XL cycle from Stamina Products. Unlike most exercise bikes, the InStride XL cycle doesn't come with a seat. Instead, you sit in a standard dining room chair or lie on the floor, then insert your feet into the sturdy rubber straps. Once you're in, you can pedal in forward or reverse motion, with an adjustable tension knob that lets you vary your intensity and an electronic monitor that times your workouts. As an alternative, you can even rest the InStride XL on a table and pedal with your hands to experience a full-range upper body workout. Improving your cardiovascular health isn't the only benefit of cycling, of course. It also increases HDL (good cholesterol), reduces the amount of triglycerides in the blood, and helps lower blood pressure. And thanks to the dual-use pedals, you can improve your muscle strength in your legs, arms, shoulders, and back, depending on the configuration you choose. Other cycling benefits include increased flexibility without stressing the joints, improved digestion, better lung function, and a higher metabolism. The InStride XL cycle, which includes non-slip rubber feet, measures 19 by 12.25 by 15.25 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 9 pounds.

 Worthless September 4, 2010
Jonathan W. Ray (Urbana, IL)
It's useless because there isn't enough resistance, no matter how hard I try to screw in the resistance knob. The resistance is ~11 pounds static and ~8 pounds dynamic when the resistance knob is screwed in absolutely as far as I can get it to go. That's a trivial amount of resistance to the legs, and not enough for any workout. Also, the lack of consistent resistance makes it hard to balance. The pedals feel uncomfortable because they're half the length of real bike pedals. Also, it has the horrible smell of fresh cheap plastic.

I bought this to have at work to use to keep my legs going as i sit for long periods of time, i am by no ,means in shape, 6'4 and 220lbs, with the tension screw all the way down, this offers almost no resistance.
Also the cheap plastic feet are useless on any tile floor, the machine just slides and moves around far too much, i would think they could of afforded to use real rubber feet and not harden plastic.

This was not stable even on carpet. The tension was also not very adjustable. Seemed cheaply made. The floor grips did not stay in one place. They were always twisting and turning.
 Limited Value for Me July 24, 2010

This item is only good for exercise motion. Gets too hot if you apply pressure to the rotation. Probably not adequate for most people who want to strengthen leg or knee.

I bought this product to replace another, less expensive similar product by another manufacturer. The other cycle snapped in half after 2 months of moderate use. This one is far sturdier. The pedals are attached directly to the product, not sautered on, like the other one. I am very pleased with this one, and the price was good.
