Very good review but one downside to this bike for me was the bike seat which is extremely uncomfortable i had to get a seat cover on amazon which helped but not as much, overall its an amazing bike
Hey! Greetings from MERACH Team. This MERACH S26 Exercise Bike features a friction resistance system, and we will have the version featuring a magnetic resistance system available soon as well. Happy cycling🚴
Seriously considering picking up this bike from Amazon. Do you know if they have replacenent parts like the LED monitor for purchase in case one wants to buy it as backup?
Big issue with this bike... you have no way of knowing what the resistance is set to. Very odd and pretty much makes the bike worthless to me. The bike seems to not change the resistance automatically either. So you have to manually change the resistance by turning the knob.
It’s a friction bike. It uses felt pads to adjust level of difficulty. That’s how it works. The great thing about this type of resistance is it’s easy to repair. Magnetic resistance can be a headache. Schwinn uses friction resistance. That tells you something.

Great review! Does it have a magnetic resistance system?

I set mine up and the pedals don’t move. It’s locked. Do you have a remedy to this problem?
Back off the tension using the red knob. You'll have to rotate it out quite a bit before the pedals unlock.
Great video, but how do you change the time
Just set my bike up and when i pedal the wheel makes swishing noise??
Do you know the flywheel weight ?
Hi Carlos! Greetings from MERACH Team. The flywheel is 6kg.
Please tell me this bike compared to the Merach MR-S15, which one has the most poweful resistance?

Thanks for the review. Have you tried connecting it to other cycling apps like Whoosh?
Do you recomend this for a middle-hig intensity workout?
Are the pedals clipless on one side?
