Lifecore 950RBs Recumbent Exercise Bike Review
Compact Size and Lower Console Position
The Lifecore 950RBs Recumbent Exercise Bike is much more compact than virtually any other recumbent exercise bike (with the exception of the other Lifecore models) and has a Lower Console Position which gives you easy viewing of a TV screen, outdoor scenery or anything else that is in front of you while you improve your health and get fit.
The Lifecore 950RBs also has comfortable Mesh Seat Back and a Self-Powered Generator which allows you to move your exercise bike ~ and fitness routine ~ just about anywhere without the need for a power outlet or extension cords.
Self-powered generators are usually only found in much more expensive commercial grade bikes and are also more economical in the long run as well as being more ecological. Why not use the power of your workout for something that is good for the planet while you get in shape?
The other features that make this Recumbent Exercise Bike a very good buy is the Easily Adjustable Rail and Wheel Track Slider Seat, the Heavy Duty Drive System, the 300lb weight capacity (a good indication of the bikes quality even if you weight much less), the wireless heart-rate option (optional chest strap required) and the Heart Rate Control (HRC) programs.

Heart Rate Control (HRC) Programs
The Heart Rate Control (HRC) programs that come with the Lifecore 950RBs ~ usually only found on more expensive commercial exercise bikes ~ are based off of your personal user profile information and are designed to keep you training at your chosen heart rate level. The console will adjust the bike's resistance level automatically to ensure the target heart rate is achieved and maintained during the entire program.
About-Bicycles Review:
The Lifecore 950RBs Recumbent is a high quality, compact and reasonably priced recumbent exercise bike that can be purchased online for light commercial uses or for in-home use when you're looking for a compact, heavy duty and highly adjustable Recumbent Exercise Bike that will last for many years to come.
When I tested this exercise bike I found it to be very comfortable and I prefer the breathable Mesh Seat back over a solid/padded seat back. I also liked the easy to use seat adjustment lever (no knobs to unscrew, line up and screw in again). Although I like the easy seat adjustments on all Lifecore exercise bikes, the 950RBs is a step up from the lower priced Lifecore 850RBs since it has a Rail and Wheel Track Slider mechanism that is very smooth.
The easy to use and lower positioned console is lower and not right up in your face throughout your workout. You want to be able to see and adjust the console easily (which you can do on this bike) but you do not need it right in front of you and blocking your view.
The self-powered generator is also a really nice feature. This feature gives you the option to use your bike in more locations and without having to worry about where the power outlet is or having to deal with extension cords.
I would recommend the Lifecore 950RBs for anyone looking for a high quality, compact and self-powered recumbent exercise bike that is comfortable, well designed and that has many features not found on other exercise bikes in its price range.
