Concept 2 BikeErg Review: Assault Bike Replacement?

The Concept 2 BikeErg is just as good as the Concept 2 Rower and Skierg; to put it plainly, nobody is creating conditioning equipment with the attention to detail, quality, or performance of Concept 2. The BikeErg is a shining example of what a company can do when they focus on quality over quantity of products.

Just bought a bike erg so revisited this video. Man. What did current coop do to 2018 coop? And how far the channel has come. Haha. Time flies..

[patthetrucker]

I've watched this video about 15 times. I finally got one today and I love it.

[johnlvsrun]

The current seat is different than the one in the video. If you want to use your own bicycle
saddle like me, you'll need a long narrow 12 point 14mm wrench to access the bolt from the back.

Got a Skierg after watching this for HIIT. I have not been disappointed. I am glad I went with it over the rower.

[rtcharge]

Had mine 2 weeks love it, it’s so smooth. Have the rower too

[EnoughRhetoric]

I just ordered one but this video made me feel less apprehensive of my purchase. Thanks. I have zero doubt it’ll be great, but it is pricey and I’ve spent so much money on my home gym during covid that I was second guessing myself.

Great review. Was on the fence between this and the AD Pro, which I tried at a friend's house and loved, but this pretty much convinced me that the BikeErg might be better for my needs. I'm honestly just interested in purchasing a quality piece of equipment with low maintenance to improve my overall cardio and cycling (on the side of my weightlifting), and this seems to fit the bill. Good job!

[RodrigoGarciactg]

Getting mine tomorrow! So pumped! Making a video in it!

[primofxdls]

Love the Bike ERG and it's almost my goto everyday .

[mortimermechanic]

The Concept2 bike is in a different category than a fan bike with arms. The Assault bike and the Schwinn Pro bike can be compared as apples to apples. But the Concept2 bike is like apples to oranges compared to the other two. The Concept2 bike should be compared to other stationary bikes without arms, like the Keiser or Stages or Wattbike. Of course even this may be apples to oranges because Kaiser and Stages and other quality stationary bikes use magnetic resistance. Even Wattbike, whose models up till now use both fan and magnetic resistance combined, has announced a new model with only magnetic resistance. The Concept2 bike is in its own category with no competition. Its best features: quality company, proven technology for its monitor, which can be used for accurate comparison between workouts and between riders, fair price and its fan. The faster you pedal, the harder it gets (more resistance). With magnetic resistance, your cadence (how fast you pedal) is independent of the resistance. Lots of choices.

What do you think about this Bike Erg Vs. the Echo Bike now? Would love to get your opinion.

[zuzanahoudkova]

Quiet enough for late night use. I wish there was more resistance on the highest level. It doesn't really stress the body much if you are a stronger person.

[fg]

Why choose this one instead of a normal bike ergometer, which it basically is apart from generating resistance differently? Is this thing louder than the general bike ergometer? I'm kind of indecisive. I like the idea of moving the whole body that airbikes provide and wouldn't mind the noise then. But if this is only a bike, then why nother with the noise?
In another review someone mentioned, that the wind is blowing up only on the lfet knee area. Was this annoying for you? I'm only wearing short pants while training.
Is it really "impossible" to get low intensity levels on the airbikes with arm movement? That is somewhat the only thing that would deter me from getting one instead of the Concept 2 bikeerg.

[djrounak]

i was looking for this, can you guide if handle is really far from seat ? i am buying it for my 66 years old dad and i am just worried that he need to bend much as handle looks far from seats in your video, please guide.

[roj_]

I wonder if the price of the BikeErg has risen over the past 6 years. I wonder if the Echo Bike wasn't out at the time but wonder if you'd still recommend this over the Echo bike for those that want a HIIT piece but also want to do some LISS stuff too

[lazylearner]

I am curious what you like better about the ski erg than the rower and bike erg. I have the rower and a bike trainer.

[bmp]

How would you compare the Bike Erg to quality spin bikes like the Keiser M3i, Schwinn Pros, or Spinners?

[AgentOfLogos]

What's the best piece of GPP equipment if you just want to get super conditioned?

[davidba]

Thanks for posting this review. I have been looking for a stationary bike for my home gym.

[ronski]

Excellent review Coop - I am with you on the versatility aspects and will be swapping out my Assault bike for one of these
