Product Information

The Deskcycle 2 is a great choice for cyclists who are looking for an indoor cycling trainer that offers a comfortable and stable ride. This bike has a front leg 20 inches wide. While most exercise bikes with narrow bases tend to wobble while pedalling, the Desk Cycle 2 has a low center of gravity and a wide enough base to keep it on the ground even when vigorously pedalling. Resistance DeskCycle’s claim to fame is offering the lowest pedal height of all pedal exercisers, with the option to adjust between 9 to 10 inches off the ground. Compared to other mini bikes we’ve tried, we can agree that the DeskCycle does have a low profile. I’ve personally tried other brands and find I have to adjust my chair height and desk height to prevent my knees from banging the underside of my desk.

Often, the biggest issue for people such as myself who juggle family and work-life continually—the DeskCycle2 works. Even at a lower resistance, the calories add up, and it’s nice to know that after a hard day’s work, you have burned off your lunch at least. Route the Velcro strap (2) as shown in the picture below. Keep the strap as low as possible. Stretch the loop tight and attach the end with the Hook material to the Loop material to make a tight loop.(1) Base of chair, (3) DeskCycle2.That may be overkill for a machine whose basic remit is to encourage office workers to keep their legs moving, but it would’ve been a useful addition to the features.

Recumbent-style riding isn’t better or worse than upright cycling, but it is worth mentioning that you shouldn’t expect this indoor cycling bike to feel the same as a traditional bike. Additionally, this style of mini bike is meant to be used from a seated position, not from a standing desk position. There is a Left Pedal (4) and a Right Pedal (1). They are marked with an L for Left or an R for Right on the end of the pedal shaft (2). Additionally, the Deskcycle 2 is relatively affordable compared to other models on the market. Cons The portability of the machine means you can also use it as an arm cycle. All you need to do is prop it on a high-surface like a sturdy table to engage your hands and arms. Most of the pedals on the market are not adjustable presenting a problem for people with narrow feet because their feet keep slipping down. Also people with wider feet will benefit from the Velcro straps as they also have a problem with rigid pedal straps.The Vive Desk Bike Cycle is the perfect option for you if you are looking for a frills-free and compact cycle. It measures just 9-inches in height and comes with non-slip pads. The adjustable toe loops make sure that your feet don’t slip out. Like the other machines in this list, it also bundles a mini screen that displays the RPM, calories burned, and the speed.
