How long will the Xterra UB120 Upright Bike last?

The Xterra UB120 is a lightweight upright bike that is supposedly capable of holding users up to 250 lbs. max weight. It is built of metal and plastic and might last a year or two with a minimum of use. The manufacturer has a rather limited 1-year frame warranty and a measly 90 days on parts which is a sure-fire indication this machine was not meant to last for any length of time. Beginning users who plan to ride once or twice a week will get the most benefit from this machine.

Brief Overview

The Xterra UB120 Upright Bike has a slim, compact frame that comes with wheels for easy mobility.

Overall Quality

The Xterra UB120 Upright Bike has a light flywheel that weighs 9 lbs. but offers 8 levels of resistance which is more than enough for those beginning on their fitness journey. It is a basic riding machine that allows exercisers to focus on performance and even offers 5 points of information on a small LCD screen including pulse to keep users in their targeted heart rate zone. The padded seat has a vertical adjustment to suit various heights though the handlebars are not quite as lucky and are stuck in a prone position. With its light weight and small frame, the UB120 fits nicely into any home workout area and moves easily when exercise is complete on the handy attached wheels.

Conclusion

The Xterra UB120 Upright Bike is a budget-friendly addition to any home workout space for users who are slight in weight and are looking to implement an indoor riding exercise regimen. It has a simple, compact frame and offers users the ability to focus on performance without being distracted by the entertainment industry. Keep in mind that any fitness machine in this price range is not built to last and spending a few more bucks might result in a longer lasting indoor riding cycle.
