How long will the Spinning L5 last?

With a passable 100 lb. fully assembled weight, the Spinning L5 Spin Bike holds users up to a maximum of 250 lbs. and comes with sturdy stabilizing feet to eliminate shaking during use. The L5 has a very minimal 1-year parts warranty that does not include labor. Light usage is best for this machine, and it may or may not last a year or two with limited use.

Brief Overview

The Spinning L5 Spin Bike is budget-friendly and comes with a heavier flywheel than the L3 offering even smoother performance traveling through resistance levels. It has a standard upright design that will readily fit into any home workout space and can be financed for those not looking to clog up their credit cards with an outright full-payment purchase though consumers can get free shipping for a limited time on Spinning.com.

Overall Quality

The Spinning L5 Spin Bike comes with DVDs and a three-month subscription to Spinning® Digital and a 30-day subscription to Spinning® Digital+ which offer real time metrics and on demand workouts for motivating riding sessions. The L5 is built to suit various sized users with a seat that moves both horizontally and vertically for the best fit and have a new design in the handlebars for holding a personal streaming device. Another upgrade from the L3 is the heavier 36 lb. flywheel which offers easy transitions between several resistance levels with a quick twist of a knob conveniently placed on the frame. The pedals have dual sides – SPD clips for serious peddlers and toe cages for those that like a little freedom when they ride.
