Re: Best recumbent exercise bikes for the home user who wants to replicate a gym experience?

Hi,

I have recently purchased the YORK 3350 bike:

You can also purchase a chest strap heart monitor for it.
It cost me £225 and is sturdy as a rock.
The heart rate controlled programs make it an excellent buy for the price.
I did quite a bit of research before I purchased this and am certain I got
the best quality for my money.
