When its bad weather outside then you can train your legs and heart on a minibike like this. You can even put it on a table and train your arms and shoulders with it. I have one like this at home a train my legs and hgeart with it and now I begin to feel better strength in my legs and generally better health thanks to this minibike. I havent got my three wheel cargobike yet so I use this until I get it and I train 30-40 minutes on this everyday.

@meggie its up to you to decide. I bought it because of it takes less space. You can burn calories with this to but I think you will train your legs and heart more but of course you will burn calories too. People have noticed that I am more slim in my face and body after training on this minibike. And my heart, bloodpressure, strenght in my legs and generally the health is much better too.
You can also choose what level of inertia of the bike you want there are 8 modes 1 is lightest 8 is slowest. The higher the mode and the greater the inertia, the more strength in the legs, heart you will get and you also burn more calories. If you train on it about 30 to 40 minutes everyday two or four times a day you will very fast notice big positive differencies. Our bodies are not built to sit still.
Hope this will help you, I am NOT an health expert but I have got some advise from some.
@meggie I personally like using it. I don't have to get out the bike and then worry about watching out for cars. I can just pull it out and go, and when I'm finished I put it away, it's easy for me.
@twiigss Thats one reason I bought this but my opinion is sometimes you maybe want to go outside in the nature a sunny day with your real bike. When you have a bike like this indoors your home you will also train your body but it stays home all the time and wont move forwards. With a real bike you can go outside and take a ride in the nature.
@Mathias I've done that before too. Would like to have an electric bike I can go the whole way on the trail with, and when my legs give out, switch over to electric power to get back
@twiigss I have asked a seller how an electric bike works, I have a disability and cant ride a two wheel bike I need a three wheeler elctric bike for disabled people. He said to me that the electric motor is just a help for you if you ride a bike upwards steep slopes. There is five levels on the motor 0 to five, 0 means the electric motor is OFF and wont help at all until you turn it to 1 or 5.
