How long will the Xterra SB150 Recumbent last?
Weighing a light 69.5 lbs. fully assembled, the Xterra SB150 Recumbent Bike has a maximum user weight of 265 lbs. It is tailored mores towards beginning to light users and is designed to fit most spaces with a 4.8-foot frame. The warranty offering is rather on the low side and covers a year on the frame, the brake, and other parts that make up the totality of this machine. A modicum of care will add life to this indoor cycle though lasting quality is not guaranteed as shown by the disheartening warranty coverage.
