The YOSUDA exercise bike is a home indoor cycling bike with a 30 lb flywheel, a belt drive and Bluetooth app support. It is built for riders who want a steady, fairly quiet bike at home, and it includes a tablet holder so you can follow classes or play music while you ride.

Flywheel and belt drive

The flywheel is where the ride feel comes from. In general, a heavier flywheel stores more momentum, which smooths out each pedal stroke and makes the ride feel more like riding on the road. YOSUDA specifies a 30 lb flywheel and a heavy-duty steel frame for stability.

It uses a belt drive instead of a chain. Belts are typically quieter and need less lubrication than chains. YOSUDA describes the ride as smoother and quieter than chain-driven bikes, and mentions up to 70 pounds of drag. The listing title also mentions low noise.

Resistance and stopping

YOSUDA's listing refers to brake pad resistance in the title and magnetic resistance in the listing, so check the product documentation to see how resistance is adjusted. It says that pressing the resistance bar stops the flywheel instantly, which is useful for ending a workout or if you need to stop quickly. The pedals have adjustable cages with straps.

Fit and comfort

The bike has a spring-loaded, shock-absorbing seat that adjusts four ways, and two-way adjustable handlebars. YOSUDA states it suits riders from 4 ft 8 in to 6 ft 1 in tall and supports up to 300 lb. A seat that fits is important for comfort on longer rides, so set it to a height at which your knee stays slightly bent at the bottom of the stroke.

Display and app

An LCD display tracks ride data. The bike also supports Bluetooth connection to a smart app, and YOSUDA mentions its exclusive FED Fitness app, with different riding scenarios and cycling competitions. A phone or tablet is needed for that. The tablet holder keeps your device in view during rides.

Assembly and what's in the box

YOSUDA says all tools and instructions come in the package. An online assembly video is said to help complete assembly in about 30 minutes. The listing also mentions one year of replacement parts.

Size

The bike measures about 38.6 inches long, 7.5 inches wide (as listed) and 29.9 inches high, and weighs 64 lb. Check the real footprint including the seat and handlebars, plus space around the bike to get on and off.

What to check before you buy

  • Your height and the stated 4 ft 8 in to 6 ft 1 in range.
  • Your weight against the 300 lb capacity.
  • Floor space and a level surface, since a 64 lb bike needs to stand steady.
  • How resistance is controlled, as the listing wording varies.
  • Whether you want to use the app and if your device is compatible.
  • Moving it: weight and whether it has transport wheels.
  • Discuss new exercise routines with a qualified professional where appropriate.
