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.

 AWKWARD March 9, 2010
Mike S. (Milford, MA)
I didn't like it. It's very awkward to use because the pedal straps are hard to slip on right, and if you tighten up the tension control to get a good workout the motion becomes sticky and it doesn't operate smoothly. I found it annoying. There doesn't appear to be any sort of gear mechanism involved so it feels rough and also the base slips easily. Essentially it's a good idea, but it doesn't function well. I found nothing about it that was worth the money. I tossed it aside a few days after getting it and haven't used it in months. Get one of the highly rated mini steppers instead. You'll get a nice space saving workout. I recommend an air piston one.

Stamina 15-0120 InStride Cycle XL March 8, 2010
L***Y (EDINBURG, TEXAS)
THIS PRODUCT IS VERY DIFFICULT FOR MY 85 YEAR-OLD MOTHER TO USE BECAUSE THE STIRRUPS ARE NEVER IN POSITION FOR EASY USE. SHE STRUGGLES REACHING DOWN TO HER FEET TO FIT THE STIRRUPS ON. ALSO, THIS CYCLE TRAVELS--IT NEVER STAYS PUT WHEN IN USE.
For my mom March 7, 2010

Sent to my 82 year old mother to help her get some exercise. She says she uses it and after about 5 minutes she said she is huffing amd puffing so at least it helps get her blood moving!
 This Stamina Cycle Is A Blessing - Miracle In A Box March 7, 2010
Carlos Santiago (USA)
Ok first off, The package came on time and it's well built. I received it 2 days ago. I bought this cycle for my father because he has rheumatoid arthritis and high blood pressure. His legs became numb months ago, causing him to fall a lot and not be able to walk without assistance. It's only been 2 days since he's been using it and the numbness in one of his legs is gone and he is able to walk a lot better and he hasn't fell yet, thank god. He says that he can "already feel a difference". He was not able to walk without dragging his left foot, but now it is already lifting off of the ground. The cycle seems to be improving the circulation and strength in his legs.
He used the cycle for 20 mins. on the first day and 30 mins. on the 2nd. day, which is today. I can see the improvement and it makes me happy. This will also help lower his blood pressure. I created a workout routine for him and I use words a lot to keep him motivated. This is worth the money.
And yes it does give a slight pause when u cycle, but all that does is makes him try harder to push, which gives him more of a workout. I love this thing!and so does he!
Stamina Instride Cycle March 6, 2010
Deborah Hooper (Augusta, GA)
I carefully read all review I could find before I invested and based on what I read, I felt I made a good choice. After receiving the cycler, my feelings are reinforced. I knew that it would move while pedaling. I was armed with a shelf-liner with a grip surface which worked well. As far as the pedaling being choppy, at a certain tension and speed it is. I have finally gotten the right combination of speed and tension to keep it from being so. It just took a little work and because I knew about that ahead of time, I was willing to work with it. The product appears to be well made. My grandchildren have certainly given it a few spins and it has held up without problem. That is a true test to me. If they don't destroy it, it's well made. It doesn't fold, but doesn't take up much space and is lightweight to carry from room to room or carry to work if you'd like. I'm pleased with my choice and use it 40 minutes each day. This is not a substitute for regular exercise, but helps to supplement when the weather is bad and I can't get out.
