The sunny sf-b1805 costs about $600 on amazon and it shipped to my front door in about 2 days for free. Sunny Health & fitness indoor bikes are popular peloton bike alternatives because they are quality built and inexpensive, and you can put your own screen on the front to play peloton app or apple fitness plus classes, or any classes you'd like.

The sunny 1805 is a popular choice because it is well under $1000 and it has a heavy quality flywheel mass of 44lbs and it's magnetic resistance. The magnetic resistance sunny bike 1805 isn't the prettiest magnet stack, but it definitely gets the job done.

If you want to see my full sunny sf-b1805 review be sure to subscribe because i will be posting that later as i spend more time on this bike. I will also compare the peloton vs sunny sf-b1805 as well as many more comparison videos coming soon.

The SF-B1805 is one of our most popular magnetic resistance bikes and you're right! Although this model is not equipped with electronics - it does allow the user to build their bike however they'd like by adding on sensors and its heavy flywheel ensures consistent momentum during rides to keep up with virtual spin classes. We're happy to hear you're enjoying your new Sunny bike and thank you for your honest review - we really appreciate it!

Your videos are the absolute best..this video convinced me to by the SF-B1805 over all of the others I've been researching..I was torn btween this one and the IC4..but now I'll be saving a lot of money and know I'll be happier with what I''m getting. Also, the SF-B1805 is now only $442.61 as of today..so bonus bonus. Thank you again for all of your awesome helpful reviews!

I've had the 1805 for about 6 months and love it (no problems yet). Matt, have you thought about adding a bike computer to this fine bike. I upgraded mine using a cycplus M1 (less than $50 on Amazon) and with Wahoo Cadence and Speed sensors. I have a Scoche HR monitor armband so this gives me speed, cadence, HR, time and distance which is pretty complete. It will even support Power pedals if you need. I'm 78 so I ride to HR and can use my tablet to watch YouTube, Netflix, Hulu or what ever. I love the set up.

I bought this model. I'm 6'4". My feedback, I'm having to run the front about 1/2 an inch above the max line which gets it up to about 2 inches below my seat level. As I'm not putting much weight on the bar, not worried about over extending. Now, the seat, with the stock farm saddle, there is no issue having it high enough, but I did replace it with a race saddle similar to my road bike and I have to run it at the absolute max, I don't go above max on seatposts for obvious reasons and I'll say it's still a hair short but works. The build is very heavy and very solid.. no issues there.. super quiet. It's nice, but too bad the seat post and front assembly isn't 2 inches taller.. I'd pay extra for that.

With so many exercise bikes to choose from, I really appreciate your in-depth reviews and TailHappy scores. Please keep up the awesome work. Thanks!!

I love ours, great bike so far, 3rd week of use. My 11 year old uses it daily, the adjustments options are great. I truly appreciate all your reviews and I found them very helpful when making an assessment of what we required prior to purchase. The tremendous variety of bikes you review and compare has been priceless. I would have purchased via your Amazon link, but I live in Canada and the exchange rate is almost crippling when trying to purchase in US dollars. Merry Christmas to you and your family if you celebrate. Respect and thanks from Canada.

Thank you so much for these awesome reviews! I originally purchased a Joroto X2 as a Peloton alternative (through your link!), but I have been experiencing trouble with the crank bearing; it makes a consistent clicking sound whenever I ride it, especially in the standing position. Joroto customer service has been kind and responsive, but I don't want to miss my Amazon return window in case Joroto's suggested repairs don't work, so it's going back. I liked a lot of things about the Joroto, but I don't want any unwelcome noises while spinning. I'm purchasing this Sunny 1805 after your excellent review (and a few other good reviews) I saw on YouTube; hopefully I'll have better luck with this one! Either way, I appreciate all the work you're doing to get this information out there, especially for those of us who are searching for a Peloton alternative.

Just bought this bike and it arrived yesterday!!! I have watched all of your videos and was excited to see this one pop up today!
We put it together quickly as your video also demonstrated. Rode a Peloton class last night and really loved the feel of it. Very happy that the Schwinn IC4 was not available because I saved $300! I love that it has no electronics - makes it more versatile, and also, as I have jot heard anyone point out, can be advantageous vs. bikes that need an outlet nearby (for flexibility in placement in the room).

I bought a Sunny belt bike off Amazon on Black Friday and love it. Very solid, quiet bike. Best purchase I’ve made in a while. I did have to get a cushioned cover though because my butt wasn’t liking the seat that came with it.

[lucasmills]

I used to work for a certain infotainment centered spinbike company, and i highly recommend the 1805 and a tablet device over their product.

Thank you so very much for your excellent tutorial video. I just unboxed and assembled my 1805 bike and it went so smooth because of you. I borrowed a pedal wrench from my friend based on your advice and it was so much easier to put the pedals on with that instead of the wrench that was included. Great video and happy riding! 😊

I’m getting mine delivered tomorrow ❤ so excited ❤

[paulinamiklosz]

I just sold my 1805 yesterday, but I loved this bike! Solid build, almost silent even at heavy resistance, best bang for your buck IMO! I decided to upgrade to the Keiser M3i for more metrics/PZ training, etc. It arrives next Tuesday & I can't wait. *Feels like Christmas!* haha
Love your reviews & comparison videos, you've built up quite the collection of bikes :D Happy Holidays!

[markcraven]

Getting mine delivered with the Wahoo cadence sensor tomorrow. Amazon order yesterday delivery tomorrow morning. Thanks...

[SolarCrown]

Thank you for this video. I bought the Sunny 1805 about a month ago and have been loving it since it arrived. Everything was just as you said it was. I did buy the Wahoo sensors (speed and cadence) and they work great with my iPhone. The bike is very well built and gives me a great work-out. Grateful. Thumbs up.

[missEmmT]

Thank you for the reviews, you helped me decide to buy the 1805. I wanted to get the IC4 but after your reviews I choose the 1805.
I would have purchased from your link but I live in UK so it would have been way more expensive to get it through your link due to exchange rates.
Love your reviews. ❤️❤️ Thank you lots!

I'm happy to see that you're initial reaction is good. I really like the 1805. I do more rhythm riding and have most of my years cycling, so this bike is heavy duty enough to handle it. I put clip in pedals on it and ride in front of my tv. Great video. I really want to see how it compares to the echelon connect sport because that was a big contender. Price ruled out and I got the Sunny.

I’d like to see a direct comparison tween sunny 1805 and the Stryde $1500 bike.
You do excellent reviews and provide a lot of valuable info in your videos. Thx.

[markfries]

Really wish there was a way to accurately measure each bikes max resistance, maybe there is a tool that does this but I"m not aware of it. Pounds per square inch? .. not necessarily just for your reviews but so we are better informed.

[bobbyrichardson]

Thanks dude! I just used your video for the assembly guide. This spin bike is a beast of a machine, so sturdy and just all around feels amazing. Going to do my first work out on the bike tonight.
