I didn't want to like it - but I do!
By bookelephant
I have to say I was looking for excuses not to like this - I actually have no desire to become a person who uses an exercise bike or rower. BUT it really is rather good and such an easy way of getting a bit of exercise. It is fine to assemble - but possibly best with two people to share the "fun", and completely straightforward to use. Conversion of rower from bike is beyond simple. Only problem is if you have the bike facing the TV, the rower will face away from it, and turning it round is no mean feat - it is quite heavy (as all these things are, of course). I'm only not giving 5 stars because I resent liking it, and the seat sometimes squeaks![UPDATE a year or so on] Still a great bit of kit. It has had some serious use, and though the pulse monitor has given up the ghost, on all other fronts it is still doing very well indeed. The seat stopped squeaking after a while, by the way! Only possible negative is that the seat is not the most comfortable in the world for longer rides (dead backside after 30 mins). But you can deal with that with a gel seat cover.

By Ian Rupp
I received this item a few months ago. Delivery and service were good. The cycle rower is relatively easy to set up, but had a couple of small problems with pedal straps and centre post insert. However the York "person" was very helpful and replaced these within a couple of days. I use the Cycle and Rower and find them both very good. The Computer is helpful, showing speed,distance,time and calories. However the heart rate monitoring part is so erratic it could be dangerous. I think York would be better off not including this as part of the equipment. My wife and I both use the cycle and both find the same problem. We have tried all sorts of different holds and used "gel" ( the connections are on the handlebars) but still get the same useless readings. When I asked York for help/advice I was told that "it doesn't work for everybody". In that case should they be selling this as a feature? They do have a "telemetry" option (heart rate transmission belt wirelessly connected to the computer) at extra cost. I was told this is out of stock and would be so for at least 6 weeks, with no lead time as to when it would be available. So I have bought a different heart rate monitor which works very well.So to sum up the equipment is very good and does what I hoped for, with the exception of the heart rate monitoring. Perhaps York should consider including the "telemetry" option as standard.

Flawed but not so bad
By Damien Bunyan
There are a few negatives with this machine: the pedals catch the seat in cycling mode, the seat itself is very uncomfortable, if you are taller than 6', the seat of the rower does not have enough travel and will bang at the end of the rail and when in cycle mode, the seat does not raise enough to allow full extension of the legs, the computer is a bit vague to say the least and the resistance does not really seem to have any effect. However, despite all these flaws, I use the bike pretty regularly. Just be warned if you are of above average height, this may not be the machine for you.
