There are several different types of exercise bikes to choose from including upright, recumbent, air/fan, spin or indoor cycle bikes. Which bike you choose will depend on what you’re looking to get out of your exercise regime, how serious you are about exercising, what features you’re looking for and how much you’re willing to spend.
Upright exercise bikes are the most common type of exercise bike that most people are familiar with. Recumbent exercise bikes offer a more laid back feel with a larger seat and backrest for support and sit lower to the ground so are easier to mount and dismount. Air or fan exercise bikes have the addition of moving handlebars to work the upper body and utilize air resistance which works on the premise that the faster or harder you pedal the more intense the resistance will become. Spin or indoor cycle bikes are designed like a road racing bike for more serious athletes.
