X24 Bike

We recently replaced our Nordic Track S22i with the new X24 bike. This is an excellent upgrade and the team at Nordic Track has made some nice improvements The one that we noticed first was that an on/off switch had been added. Great addition! I am the one that always gets tasked with putting the equipment together and Nordic Track always makes this an easy task and the tools provide it make it simple. We will continue to upgrade machines as we have several. . .

So happy to have this bike in my home! This bike has 20% incline and 10% decline so I can train for hills, descents and do some sprints. Best part is I'm safe at home and not dealing with distracted drivers! And with a fan that auto adjusts, I can still fill the wind in my face! This is an incentivized review.

I have owned this bike for a few weeks and used it a lot over that time. I have been very impressed. This bike is incredibly sturdy and smooth. One benefit this has over other cardio equipment is how quiet it is. If you work out early morning or late at night you don’t have to worry about waking up others in your house. Assembly was straightforward. I would recommend having a 2nd person to help assemble unless you are very strong. I signed up for the iFit membership and have done a few on demand workouts. I really enjoyed that the incline and resistance changed automatically with the terrain. The large screen certainly makes the on demand workouts more enjoyable. This is an incentivized review.

This bike is so quiet! I absolutely love how quiet and smooth it is while using it. As a mom of two, it was really nice to not have additional noise because my house can be noisy enough. I also really enjoy the Netflix and Amazon apps that you can watch while using the bike (as long as you have the iFIT subscription) The screen is pretty big so you definitely get a good viewing experience while watching. The workout programs with iFIT are really nice too. I am a beginner and I appreciate the smart adjust for the workouts. I definitely had to dial them down a bit on the resistance because even the beginner workouts were a little tough, but the smart adjust, adjusts the whole work out so that you still follow along, just at a pace that is more your speed. The incline and decline on the bike were really cool as well. It definitely makes you think about what happens when you are riding a real bike and the resistance adjusts to mimic the climb and decent. Overall, the setup was pretty easy, it took me and my husband about 45 minutes putting it together. You could probably do it with one person but it would be a challenge. One thing that did irritate me at first was that I kept getting a fairly loud clicking noise while peddling. It took me a minute to figure out that there are two adjustment knobs on the seat and I had only tightened one of them during assembly. Make sure that the one that is underneath the back of the seat is tight as well and the clicking noise will go away, at least it did in my case. Overall, this is a very smooth very comfortable bike. I love it and would definitely recommend it. I was given this equipment at a reduced cost for my honest and unbiased opinion

So far I have been very very impressed with this bike, and it has been a huge upgrade from the indoor bike we replaced. The first thing that impressed me is how quiet the bike is. I work from home and I have been able to work on my computer and have meetings while my wife is on the bike and haven’t had any sort of issues with that. My desk is maybe 10 feet away from the bike and there is literally almost no sound. I am relatively new to indoor trainer bikes like this, the one we had before we got this one was very simple and not really pleasant to train on. This one is much more evolved and I find myself really enjoying training on it. The fact that the bike moves up and down as you go on some of the workouts is really cool. It feels pretty close to a real bike ride because of that, you can feel the resistance adjust as the bike moves up and down and it gives you a very real bike feeling. A few things that I have really liked about the bike: • Easy to adjust resistance and elevation • The bike is very quiet • The seat is adjustable up and down, as well as in and out • I have never used clip on shoes before, but I like that the bike has the ability to clip on with shoes. It is something I plan on getting and practicing with as part of my training • The screen is very big and easy to navigate I have done quite a few workouts on it now and have loved the bike, but I will give a few things I have noticed that are a little clunky, but are very minimal for me • Some of the trainings I have done on Ifit have not seemed to link up great with the elevation changes. I have watched the training screen, and have had to manually adjust the elevation a couple times to match where the workout says I should be • If you use something like Netflix or Amazon on it as one of the preinstalled apps, it puts the workout on the screen while you are watching a show. This is great because you can see everything coming up, but the workout will cover up the buttons on the video so it is difficult to pause or stop the video you are watching • You can adjust the elevation and the speed from the handlebars, but everything else is done on the touch screen. This can be a little challenging in a work out to adjust things. For example, if you want to turn the fan on, you have to touch the screen to open a menu, select fan, and then the speed you want. Not really a hard process, and I understand why it is the way it is, but it can be a little difficult to do while you are riding. Overall though I have loved the bike. If you can afford to do so, I would highly recommend the bike. It has been a very enjoyable training tool for us so far. This is an incentivized review
