Sole R92 Recumbent Exercise Bike Review
Comfort, Quality and 9 Inch Display Console
What makes the Sole R92 stand out from the crowd of recumbent exercise bikes is the large 9 inch blue backlit LCD display console in addition to heart rate control (HRC) programs and chest strap, the sturdy, quiet and comfortable design and industry leading warranty. 
The Sole R92 Recumbent Exercise Bike has quite a few nice features but what really stands out is the large 9 inch display monitor. It is really easy to compare the monitor to other models, just browse the photos of the other recumbent exercise bikes for sale online. It is obvious that the monitor is much larger and easier to read than most other models.
Getting back to the other key features of this bike. The Sole R92 Recumbent Exercise Bike has a large comfortable foam padded seat, chest strap and handle grip heart rate monitors with HRC and dual user settings on the console, a 300lb user weight capacity, 110v power supply (included), 6 programs, 20 resistance levels and iPod/MP3 music compatibility.

Recumbent Exercise Bikes, including the Sole R92, provide an excellent low impact, aerobic exercise and are more compact and more affordable than other home fitness equipment.
Aerobic exercise improves cardiovascular health and circulation and exercise bikes provide a safe, low impact aerobic exercise that has been used for fitness, health and physical therapy for years.
Additional Features of the Sole Fitness R92 Exercise Bike
The Dual User settings on the console is a very handy feature if you have more than one person using this fitness bike.
One common thread in the Sole fitness equipment reviews that I have researched is that the equipment is Quiet, Rock Solid and more similar to fitness club equipment than to the often more flimsy home fitness equipment. This is totally inline with the 300lb user weight capacity of this bike.
The Sole Exercise Bike Warranty and Customer Service
Sole is totally committed to building quality fitness products that are extremely durable which is why they offer the industry leading warranty (lifetime on the frame, 3 years on parts and electronics, 1 year on labor with in-home service!) on their exercise bikes.
In addition to their excellent warranty, Sole has an excellent reputation for responsive customer service and a money back guarantee on this product.
About-Bicycles Review:
The Sole R92 Recumbent Exercise Bike is priced a little higher than most other in-home recumbent models but you do get quite a bit more. This exercise bike comes with 2 heart rate control (HRC) programs and a heart rate chest strap which are not usually included on other in-home models. 
If you like the large 9 inch blue backlit LCD display console, the HRC programs and chest strap, the quiet, sturdy and comfortable design and the Sole warranty, the price is not at all unreasonable.
The warranty on the R92 can not be beat so even if you have not had a chance to review this Recumbent Exercise Bike in the b&m stores (they are sold at Sears and Dick's but are not always on display or in stock), you can still be assured of getting a quality product.
I would recommend this exercise bike for the Heart Rate Control (HRC) programs and chest strap,
the large easy to read and use console, the dual user settings, and the 300lb user weight capacity.
Customer Reviews:
There were only a few Customer Reviews of the Sole R92 Recumbent Exercise Bike at the time of this update since it is still very new (as of August, 2011).
The Review of the Sole R92 at Dicks Sporting Goods, from JR the Sprinter from Reno, NV on 11/22/2011 was  (5 of 5 stars). Here is an excerpt that sums up this review pretty well:
"I have never been so comfortable when I workout before. I can just sit back and pedal away burning calories. The screen is clear and big so I can see the track and my progress. I like that the seat is cushioned but that the frame is steel and durable...."
