Review of NordicTrack S22i

Sharing information and feedback on my new S22i

The fact that you can draw your own route on Google map's which will allow me to drive by the job and flick everyone off "virtually", makes this the best bike on the market by far! Thanks for the review!

Yes - Helpful. Great to see a real person (not a Sales Person) giving their view. Hope you are still enjoying your bike.

I really liked how you showed the bikes operation, like showing google maps feature. It seems a lot of other reviews talk about it without showing it.

your the only review i found on this bike i wish more ppl who has this bike would post more about its, it like finding a needle in a hay stack looking for reviews!!!

Thanks for the review! Also, I share your enthusiasm about the tour de France levels and scenic routes and automated incline, decline. This might be the best bike on the market

Accurate video, thanks for sharing. For those looking to get one: Mostly good bike. 2 issues for me. First, the left pedal kept coming off. Fixed it by securing it with a DIY solution of a 10mmx16mm bolt, a 10mm lock washer and 2 10mmx60mm wide metal washers. Issue 2 is that it can be temperamental if your your wifi is temperamental. They have released some updates since I bought it in Nov 2018 and the software seems to be able to recover a little better. Overall the bike it self is decent and the software is meh. But the content and workouts are 10/10.

Very good review, I really like the incline feature on the bike, looking forward to ordering it! Appreciate your honest review and opinion, enjoy.

Best review I've seen on this bike thus far. So informative on a real level.

[OriginalGanooch]

Really nice quick and informative video review. Thanks man!

[porterdisc]

man, so want this bike but no reviews on their own website?... where as Peloton has hundreds of positive reviews.  Torn between the 2 cycles but your one of few positive reviews that I've found on the S22i....has me leaning the other direction!

Thanks considering this as well as echelon and/or peletron.

Best video review of the s22i I've seen, thanks for posting! Couple of questions I'm hoping you can answer: Are the incline adjustments smooth and gradual like a real hill? And how loud are the adjustments? It seems a little jerky and loud in the video. Also, does the bike have any functionality without an iFit subscription? I've looked all over and can't find any information about that.

There are so many complaints about Nordic Track and iFit customer service and as other have said not many user reviews (unlike Peloton on their web site). I like the added features of s22i bike (incline, handlebar controls, swiveling screen) and some novel features of iFit (1y free, Google maps draw your own route). Really great to see & hear your positive video review. I think I may prefer the outdoor rides more than the studio classes. Could you speak to what kind of metrics, calendars, personal record, badges, gimmicks does the s22i (or iFit) software have to keep one engaged and motivated (I am thinking leader board, following people and stuff like that on Peloton).

Haha had a feeling you were in jersey. Thanks for the review, might pick one up! I’m in pompton lol

[Raspy]

Wonderful review! Is it possible to stand up on the bike and pedal on inclines? Thanks!

My husband just surprised me with one for my birthday! Great review very helpful, thanks for sharing!

[lizethzavala]

Hi there! I'm considering buying one of these or a Peloton. I really enjoy studio classes, but have read reviews on most people not enjoying those in this bike. How would you rate the music, and engagement level in the live and pre recorded studio classes?

[Raspy]

I already have IFIT with my treadmill and there are plenty of cycling routes I would like to do once buying this bike. I saw in a comment below though that your IFIT account is different from the built in app on the bike. That’s concerning. Could you elaborate on the difference? Thanks!

Does the screen wobble much when riding the bike hard, Kermick? I'm thinking about this or saving $400 and getting an S15i bike instead with the 14 inch screen. Can you provide any insight or recommendations? Thank you.
