Frequently asked questions
General
This YOSUDA Exercise Bike uses a brake pad resistance system, as confirmed by the product title. While YOSUDA offers both magnetic and brake pad models, this specific listing is for the brake pad version.
The YOSUDA bike operates at very quiet levels, around 25 dB (library level), thanks to its belt-driven system. It is well-suited for apartment use or shared spaces.
This bike safely supports users up to 300 lbs (135 kg).
The exact footprint is not listed, but the YOSUDA bike is described as compact and suitable for small apartments. If you need a specific size for space planning, please contact the brand.
The bike does not fold and is not designed for under-bed storage. While lightweight enough to move, it's a full-size stationary model.
Features & Adjustments
The padded seat adjusts up, down, forward, and back (four ways). The handlebars adjust vertically. Designed for users from 4'8" to 6'1", but users under 5'2" may find the lowest seat setting slightly high.
Magnetic resistance bikes generally offer the quietest operation, as there is no friction. The brake pad system here is still very quiet, but magnetic models (including other YOSUDA options) are a better choice for ultra-sensitive environments.
This bike connects via Bluetooth to YOSUDA’s exclusive FED app. It does not advertise compatibility with major fitness apps such as Zwift, Kinomap, or Peloton, but you can use your device in the holder to stream or track workouts manually.
This bike is designed for lower-body cardio (cycling). For full-body workouts, pair with resistance bands or dumbbells, or consider dual-action bikes.
The resistance is stepless–adjust smoothly from 0 to 100% using the manual knob. There are no preset levels.
App & Stats
The LCD console shows time, speed, distance, and calories burned. Heart rate tracking is NOT included in this model.
This model is optimized for the YOSUDA/FED app. For broad app compatibility, consider bikes that advertise Zwift, Peloton, Kinomap, or Apple Health integration.
Calories burned depend on workout intensity, time, and user weight. The bike’s console provides calorie estimates during your ride.
Assembly & Maintenance
Most users assemble the bike in 30–40 minutes. Tools and instructions are included, plus an online video for guidance.
As a brake-pad style bike, the main maintenance involves occasional brake pad checks or replacement. No special tools or skills required.
Straightforward. Most can fully assemble it in 30–40 minutes with the supplied instructions and video support.
Sizing & Compatibility
Standard tablets and smartphones fit, but extra-large devices or thick cases may not be stable in the holder.
The upright frame style may be hard for some seniors, especially those under 5’2” or with hip/knee issues. For extra joint support and easier access, a recumbent or step-through bike may be preferable.
This model supports up to 300 lbs. Heavier-duty models or commercial bikes supporting 350+ lbs may suit heavier users.
Magnetic bikes are quieter and more maintenance-free. The brake pad system here is economical, effective, and still quiet, but magnetic is recommended for the absolute lowest noise.
User Recommendations
The YOSUDA is compact and suitable for small rooms, but foldable or under-desk bikes are best for extreme space limits. This model is not foldable.
Yes—smooth resistance, clear instructions, and basic console make it well suited for beginners.
- Folding: Best for compact storage.
- Upright (like this model): Good for cardio and general home workouts.
- Recumbent: Easiest on joints and best for seniors.
Accessories
Bike includes a water bottle holder, tools for assembly, and a tablet holder. Seat covers, bike mats, or replacement seats are not included but are compatible.
A mat is not included, but recommended for floor protection and stability—standard exercise mats fit well.
The YOSUDA’s holder is stable for most tablets/phones under 12". For heavy or large tablets like the iPad Pro, consider aftermarket accessories for extra security.
A floor mat, padded seat cover, extra water bottle(s), and optional resistance bands for additional workouts are commonly recommended by users.
