How long will the Spirit AB900 - Air last?
With a revolutionary design and a mix of steel and powder coated paint, the Spirit AB900 Air Bike weighs a decent 119 lbs. and can hold users who weigh up to a 350 lbs. max. This complete body workout machine is covered by a 5-year frame warranty, 2 years on parts, and 1 year on labor. It is suited for light to moderate use and though designed for commercial settings, will fit easily into any home gym. Proper care and maintenance will result in a few good years of workouts from this aero machine.
Brief Overview
The Spirit AB900 Air Bike has an innovative design that works both the upper and lower body simultaneously and consumes the user’s energy for powering this groundbreaking model. It is basic and easy to use, allowing the effort of the operator to dictate the scope of the workout from beginning to end. The AB900 Air Bike is perfect for those looking for a budget-friendly machine and want to keep their carbon footprint light by generating their own air-driven power.
Overall Quality
The Spirit AB900 Air Bike targets a full body workout with its swinging arms and unlimited resistance allowing users to set the pace of exercise levels. Devised with a windscreen to keep air from blowing back during workout periods, the AB900 has a durable base though the drive system is chain based and will not stand up to heavy use. The seat is molded to offer comfort during longer training and moves up and down and back and forth to best fit users of most sizes. Very basic in layout, the AB900 has a simple, easy to use console that provides a variety of feedback information for those looking to take charge of their ride to a better level of fitness health.
