So the indoor trainer + road bike combo I’m using isn’t doing it for me. Here in SoCal, it seems gyms are going to be closed or off limits for a while. Factor in my existing gimp issues, and I need a new drug. I’m looking at an air/fan bike.
In the past few months, training on the road bike I have has resulted in low back spasms which have been bad enough to kill all my training gains. I think the posture is hard on my spine. Also, I never feel like the workout is particularly good. Okay, but not good.
Now I’ve got my eye on something like the Assault Bike. Amazon has them, and will do the delivery + build. I’ve had a trainer say very good things about them. I think the upper body workout would be good. The sitting posture seems more upright and less stressful on the low back.
Who has opinions? Sell me on them or tell me I’m an idiot. Let me know if you have thoughts on the Assault vs. Rogue Echo for a 6’ 1” user.
