Product Description
Imagine surfing the web, checking your email, keeping up with friends on social networks, beating the next level on your favorite game, or finishing that big deadline, all while losing weight and improving your cardiovascular health. The FitDesk's patent pending design provides comfortable placement of your elbows to steady and free your hands for typing, surfing, gaming and beyond!

The collapsible X-Bike design makes it fast and easy to fold up and put away. Lightweight & comfortable foamcore construction features a firm grip top for your laptop, keyboard, book or other items. Sewn in storage pockets are located on either side of the desktop for utility storage or beverage containers. Advanced belt driven design provides smooth resistance for a great workout. FitDeskTM is the only stationary bike with the patent pending elbow rest design!

I purchased my FitDesk last week..i was very pleased with ease of ordering through Amazon and the availablity of customer service for the FitDesk if I needed them..the ease of putting it together...i like that it came with tools...very empowering to do it myself, as a work-at-home-mom..what I love most about the FitDesk is that the time really flies by while Im cycling because im focusing on my work at hand...incredibly my work productivity has actually increased...now THAT was perk I didnt expect!! I feel really good about staying fit while working at the same time. Although my husband (who is a lean muscle machine) found the standard seat to be perfect,and is using the FitDesk everyday as well, I'm more pleasantly plump, shall i say.. I opted to change out the seat(easily) with a $21 Schwinn No Pressure Seat at local WalMart and that has been just perfect. I cant get to the gym lately and now I have no guilt about working, social networking, even gaming (my son)...im losing weight and it has only been a week. I also noticed my endurance is better..you can control the tension,I love this innovative piece of exercise equip. because I can COMFORTABLY rest my elbows and work on computer and burn calories at same time! I cant believe companies have never thought of this before! I think it will actually make a great gift and i plan to give it to my friend who have everything..and family for gifts..the price was very affordable for the solid quality and value.. I made a really smart purchase and when my husband agrees with me, you know it's all good! Thank you Amazon!

I Love the FitDesk !
This is a Moms dream come true. My kids ride the bike and play on the computer.
I think all kids should ride and Play!
I have had the FitDesk bike for 2 weeks and agree that it helps me to get in more exercise. My 2 boys use it daily to play video games. It is now our rule, if you ride you can play.
I use it when planning my day or getting on the web to catch up with friends. Also, my husband has begun to use the bike when doing his office work. So the idea has proven to help us all get in more exercise.
The resistance is smooth and quiet. Assembly was simple. We do not have a laptop but use the keyboard and place bike in front of monitor. No issues with things falling off desk area. It is a flat surface and does have straps to hold things on it. My kids and husband use the seat that came with bike with no issues. I like the gel cover for now.
Light weight and folding has made it easy to put away when we are done with our exercise. I would recommend this product for daily exercise. It is working better than any other exercise equipment for us. Having the ability to do other things while we exercise is proving to make a difference in how often we use it.
I would recommend this to a friend.

I received my FitDesk several weeks ago and have enjoyed using it. On the plus side, it folds easily and compactly. Once opened, it is quite sturdy. The mechanisms all work well and the straps on the pedals ensure good footing. It can be used with or without the desk attachment and the ergonomic design is excellent. The tension adjustments are simple and straightforward. My experience with FitDesk Customer Service was also excellent. Before placing the order, I was concerned about the assembly and my e-mail to the company was answered promptly along with an attachment of the manual. The assembly instructions could have been clearer but the diagrams were easy to follow and there really wasn't very much assembly required. The necessary tools are included. The two negative issues were the extremely hard, narrow seat and the onboard "computer" which was supposed to keep track of time, distance, speed and calories burned. The first unit did not fit or work and the second replacement unit, mailed promptly after my e-mail, turns on but still doesn't work. This was not a major concern for me. I would, however, recommend getting a very good bicycle seat pad. All in all, this is an excellent product with outstanding customer support and I am very pleased with my purchase.
Now I exercise more than ever ! June 10, 2010

When I use the FitDesk hours just fly by. I have no complaints for the price. Great idea that allows me to exercise while I get my work done. My kids use it for video games and wife uses it to get facebook and email organized. The whole family is using the FitDesk and everyone is happy with it. Fits people 5'2" and taller.
Good, affordable way to get exercise while working June 2, 2010

I just bought the surf desk and am pretty happy with it. It arrived on time, but the casing of the gearbox was cracked. Also, when putting it together it was great they included a tool (thanks!) but they failed to include instructions! It was fairly easy to figure out, though. Also, the mounting bracket for the computer doesn't fit, so I will have to have that replaced. Once assembled, the seat was easy to adjust, the tension smooth, and a very comfortable ergonomic position for typing, surfing and doing work. I am quite happy and have used it three days in a row for about half my work day, not bad. I pedaled for about two hours of the four, with intermittant pedaling in between. My posture is better on this seat than on a normal chair, too, oddly enough. For the price, its a good way to get some exercise for those of us with computer based jobs. I have also ordered a better seat, too, as sitting on this narrow saddle all day can get a bit sore :)
