Hi guys,

I'm looking to buy an exercise bike. My budget is around 500 euro, and I've never bought one before (regular bike, sure).

I've had a look around a few sites which offer advice, but a lot of them provide useless metrics like "maximum wattage" without actually showing this figure along with the bikes they have for sale.

* I have very long legs (38" inseam) so it would need to accommodate that.
* I would like plenty of resistance.

Does anyone have any recommendations? I'd appreciate it.

Cheers,
David

Have chosen to go for an ergotrainer instead. Using my racer and a Tacx T1680 Flow.
