The Lifespan Fitness R3 recumbent bike was designed with a larger user in mind. It offers a 350 pound user weight on its 150 pound frame. They are so sure of this rugged boy they offer a lifetime warranty on the frame and brake system and three years on parts.
For people with bad knees, bad back or excess weight the Fitness R3 is ideal. It is smooth and has sixteen levels of resistance for each of its several training programs. These include interval, weight loss, mountain race, target heart rate and manual. With proper eating and lots of water this bike can shed inches and pounds off your frame.
The earlier model of the Lifespan Fitness R3 was the much heralded R2. The R2 was noted for its stability and durability. The Lifespan Fitness R3 has all the R2 has while adding several patented and unique features. The first amazing feature is the Intelli-key system. This uses blue backlit LED buttons to walk the user through the program set up. This is a milestone for convenience and ease.
The R3 also has an opti-view console which allows the rider to adjust the angle of the console. They then have an optimal sight line in which to view the console. That beats the heck out of turning your body or head to avoid any glare.
The spine-smart seat design with integrated lumbar support makes using the bike plain comfortable. Your target heart is read through contact heart rate sensors built into the handlebars. Lets not forget the magazine rack nor the cup holder.
The tension system has automatic adjustment with sixteen levels. The flywheel diameter is 12 inches/19 pounds balanced. The belt is a reinforced poly-V belt. The pedals are self-balancing with easy to adjust straps.
All in all this is a very nice piece of equipment.
