The Horizon Upright Bike 5.0U, from Horizon Fitness, is aimed at people who want something that holds up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStripped of marketing language: this is a exercise bike for people who train consistently.

A bike that fits several riders is worth more in a shared space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAgainst the other 44 exercise bikes we stock, this sits in the middle at R12 599 — the range runs R689 to R47 740, so there is room to move either way if the fit is not right.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSaddle comfort is the most common complaint and the easiest thing to change — most bikes take a standard post.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn how much cardio is actually worth aiming for each week, the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.who.int\/news-room\/fact-sheets\/detail\/physical-activity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"\u003eWorld Health Organization physical activity guidelines\u003c\/a\u003e are a sensible, independent starting point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe specifics\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Horizon Fitness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCategory: Exercise Bikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: 5.0U-21\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: new unless the listing states otherwise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are planning a full setup, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/cardio\"\u003eCardio\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/exercise-bikes\"\u003eExercise Bikes\u003c\/a\u003e, \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/rowing-machines\"\u003eRowing Machines\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/gym-flooring\"\u003eGym Flooring\u003c\/a\u003e are the sections that usually go with this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCommercial and home equipment differ mainly in duty cycle — how many hours a day the frame, bearings and upholstery are designed to take.
