Horizon RC-30 Recumbent Exercise Bike Review

The Horizon RC-30 recumbent exercise bike offers commercial club quality, all of the latest exercise bike technology from Horizon along with an incredible warranty to back up this product.Horizon RC-30 Recumbent Exercise Bike

On a recent trip to Johnson Health Tech in Madison Wisconsin, I had the opportunity to review this exercise bike with a product specialist from Horizon. This is a very well made exercise bike and the warranty blows away most other exercise bikes in this category (just compare the Horizon to the comparable Schwinn products).

Some of the key features of this exercise bike, in addition to its overall quality and excellent warranties, are the easily adjustable ratcheting pedal clips, the 8 resistence levels that actually provide a good resistance at the higher levels for a better workout and the high quality, easy to use, plug in electronic console (no batteries to replace constantly).

This is a very comfortable exercise bike. The frame stays solid and stable under the fastest pedaling pace. The seat is fully adjustable for a perfect riding position and it's contoured shape and lumbar support make exercising easier, and speed recovery time for those with injuries.


Note: As of 2/1/2012 the Horizon M4 Indoor Cycle is selling for $399.99 with FREE Shipping. See Horizon RC30 Recumbent - Factory Direct for the latest price, reviews and comparisons.

Amazon also sells this exercise bike directly at a competitive price. See Horizon RC30 at Amazon for their latest price and customer reviews.


Exercise bikes, including the Horizon RC-30 Recumbent provide an excellent low impact, aerobic exercise and are more compact and cheaper than other home fitness equipment. Exercise bikes provide a safe, low impact aerobic exercise that has been used for physical therapy for years.

Recumbent Exercise Bikes are more popular than upright models mostly because most people consider them more comfortable. Recumbent Bikes also give you the option to watch TV comfortably, listen to music and your hands are free (for reading magazines or books, etc.).

5 of 5 star reviewWell built and easy to use., February 23, 2009
By G. K. Wallace (Texas)

I shopped for several months and tried out lots of bikes including Golds Gym's recumbent bikes.
I tried the R3 at Sam's Club and knew it was perfect! I am a big guy at 292 pounds and over 6' tall. I have had the bike for two months and with a low calorie diet have dropped 25 pounds so far!
I have had five right knee operations to date and my back was injured in a car accident two years ago which has greatly limited my exercise abililty. My doctor recommended a recumbent bike and I can ride this one for 45 minutes at 15 mph on the weight loss plus program.
Better than any of the more expensive bikes I tried at Gym X.
