The first thing you notice about the LifeSpan C2 home exercise cycle is the seat. Larger than on many competing upright models, the seat remains as comfortable at the end of a workout as it is at the start. But then the LifeSpan C2 is a well made exercise cycle that pedals smoothly whether you are working out at the lowest of the 15 resistance levels or the highest. The LCD console provides all the basic readout information, including heart rate monitoring, and doubles as a convenient magazine rack. The wheels make it convenient to transport and store this exercise bike and while it's not the lightest unit, it is sturdy enough to accommodate users up to 350 pounds in weight. If it's durability and ease of use you're looking for, the LifeSpan C2 makes a good choice of home exercise cycle.


Pros: High quality construction, plush seat and adjustable handlebars make for a comfortable ride
Cons: Expensive, lacks the broad range of programmed workouts offered by the next model up in the LifeSpan range
