Reconditioned exercise bikes offer great value for those on a limited budget who still want to expand their home gym. Used, reconditioned equipment provides an affordable and increasingly popular way to develop and outfit new or existing facilities at your home or office.
Used exercise bikes, especially top-end models, hold their value since the parts that are worn are replaced during the reconditioning process. If you buy from an established dealer (recommended), your exercise equipment will be examined by a qualified technician who will physically inspect all moving parts, and any bike part that shows more than 25% of wear will be replaced.
The old bike is taken apart and will have a new chain, drive belt, and hardware/clips installed. The exerciser is then put back together and cleaned, painted and polished. Finally the reconditioned bike is tested and shipped out or ready for pick up. Oftentimes you won?t be able to tell the difference between a used bicycle and a new one ? except, of course, in the price you pay.
The top brands of upright and recumbent exercise bikes have a proven track record for durability and reliability, so in addition to their great features and ease of use, once the used bicycles have been reconditioned they are virtually maintenance-free.
You can choose a used stationary bicycle for your indoor exercising regimen, or hit the road on your two-wheeler when the weather is nice, but don?t miss out on biking as a complete exercise that goes easy on the knees and provides a good cardio workout. You?ll soon find that biking increases your endurance and energy level -- and the pounds will melt away. Just like aerobics, an hour a day on your exercise bike will burn around 400 calories or more. No matter what your fitness level, you?ll add enjoyment to your home gym workout with the addition of a used or reconditioned exercising bicycle.
