Stamina Exercise Bikes
Stamina Products Inc. was founded in 1987 and make a variety of home fitness equipment. The company makes a wide selection of bikes, so there's a Stamina exercise bike to cater for all requirements. There's a Stamina folding exercise bike, upright and recumbent, as well as the fairly innovative conversion bike that converts to a rowing machine. The price of a Stamina bike ranges from as low as $130 for a Stamina folding recumbent bike up to a maximum of $850 for the Stamina Total Body recumbent bike.
Here's some product information on some of the more popular models.
The Stamina 15-0200 InTone folding recumbent bike costs from around $130. The bike has wheels and weighs less than 50 lbs so folding and storing it is simple and easy. It comes with a small LCD monitor and 6 preset workout programs. The monitor provides basic information such as speed, distance during etc. The resistance and seat positions are a cinch to adjust and the frame feels sturdy and comes with foam padded grips and slide-resitant pedals. It doesn't come with a heart rate monitor. While not for a serious athlete, it will give a decent workout for occasional users. It's biggest plus is that it can be folded away, great when space is at a premium.
The Stamina Resistance Magnetic bike retails for around $250. Its main features are that it comes with eight-step easily adjustable tension control, targeted training, multifunction LCD monitor with six preset workout programs (fat burn, max fat burn, aerobic, hill, interval and mountain), time, speed, distance, calories burned, and pulse. Other plus points are that this Stamina recumbent bike is very quiet. Not everyone watches TV while cycling but for those that do they'll be pleased to hear that the main display panel is low enough and the seat is high enough to accommodate TV viewing. For its price category, it's a good piece of fitness equipment and most customer reviews of the Stamina resistance magnetic bike give it a pretty decent rating.
The Stamina Conversion 15-9002 II Recumbent bike / rower has proved quite popular because of its versatile design. It costs around $500 and as you can see it has an extruded aluminum beam when in use as a rowing machine.Its main features are:
- Hand grip Pulse sensor to monitor heart rate

The warranty that comes with a Stamina exercise bike is pretty mediocre; 5 years on frame and 90 days on parts and labor.
