JOROTOX2/X2PRO Exercise Bike, Quiet Magnetic Resistance Stationary Bike with LCD Display, 16KG Flywheel, Smooth Belt Drive, Indoor Cycling Spin Bike for Home Cardio Workout, 136–150KG Capacity

So this is the newer, updated version of the bike with added resistance value, RPM, watt function, increased block magnetic resistance and can be now used with the Kinomap program. I didn't have the older version but as my first bike this has everything I need. I love it. :)I use the bluetooth function with Zwift as I like the app, but the bike was easy to set up and is easy to use and really comfortable. A lot of people said to me even though it's my first bike, don't go super cheap as they can be really uncomfortable, but I've found the seat on this surprisingly easy to get used to considering I'm not a cyclist at all.The value for money is amazing, they did have an offer on when I bought it so was even cheaper but I will say, definitely pay Amazon for their unpacking service as it's very heavy, but that does mean it's sturdy.All the features are super helpful, it's very quiet and I'm struggling to know what more you'd want from a bike. Definitely better than a Peloton!

OUT OF THE BOX FIRST IMPRESSION REVIEWI have been researched budget spin bikes for some time now. I knew I wanted a good weight flywheel and magnetic resistance and a decent screen. I was torn between this and the JLLiC300 pro (JLL had a better price point and heaver flywheel) But the overall reviews from across the web pulled me to spend a bit more and get the Joroto.Out of the box I am super impressed. It's very easy to setup although I can see where people in reviews complained as the graphics could have been larger and separated by a few more steps for people who struggle to assemble. They have added extra careful instructions for the peddles so people do that assembly properly without stripping the screws. The instructions inside did differ slightly from one components but was quick to figure it out.All in all it took about 40 minutes to assemble (including getting it out of the box).Build quality its very very nice. Everything feels sturdy (this is my first spin bike so I don't have anything to compare it too). Standing and peddling I felt very little wobble, the tiniest I did feel was gave no concern. The pedding and flywheel is super smooth and the weight (although less than the JLLC) is perfect and super quiet! The magnetic resistance was worth it! The highest resistance level is tough enough that I didn't even come close to needed it whilst breaking out a sweat in my first half hour session.Overall I am very, very happy. But time will tear how this bike last through multiple sessions by multiple people. But as it stands it's worth every penny.

Delivery was very quick. It's a 2 person job if you are moving the bike still in the box. I unboxed it & moved the parts about easily, even up stairs.Assembly was quite easy, I stuck the YouTube video on as I did it. Concentrate on the pedals. The cranks are great for seat and handlebars adjustments.Riding the bike I've done 10 or so now and found it very enjoyable. Good resistance. I've added an extra cushion to the seat & tape to the handlebars but that's a personal choice. Bike is very sturdy, flywheel is really quiet.Feel the bike is great value for money and will get you fit!

The bike is great build quality strong and comfortable and I feel I will get many years from it. Assembly is easy with only the handle bars seat and floor mounting stands needing mounting. The consul could do with being improved on, it is not in the same class as the bike and an upgraded unit would make this a more high end bike.

After checking out reviews and product specs on several spin bikes I made the decision to go with the Joroto X2. The Amazon delivery was excellent from order to front door took just two days. Assembly took less than one hour using the tools provided. The quality of the parts feels solid and when assembled looks the part. The seat which is well padded and the handlebars with 2 x cup holders and up to 10” tablet bracket are fully adjustable and easy to set to individual rider requirements. The large gear knob is positioned in a good spot and is well made. The magnetic resistance magnet system and the large flywheel allows for very quiet use. Gear changes will take a little time to learn as there is no direct gear change mechanism just a threaded spindle style adjustment system that opens and closes the magnet bar. I’ve owned the bike for a month now and after an average of about ten hours hard spinning per week (40hrs in total) I have no complaints. Other features include a basic electronic on-board trip monitor giving time, speed, distance and calories burnt. There are also four adjustable feet and two transportation feet located on the ground supports.I’ve added some additions including a Wahoo cadence (rpm) sensor which works well with it’s app. I’ve also replaced the standard pedals with a set of Joroto SPD 9/16” Pedals purchased direct from Joroto. The standard SPD cleat brackets are adjustable using a 3mm allen key. These pedals also come with the shoe cage which I’ve left the cages on so family and friends can also make use of the bike with standard sports shoes. Please note, these pedals are at present unfortunately not yet available through Amazon UK but are available via Amazon USA) see the link below. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08YR2HH4T).Joroto’s support help desk was excellent with its email communication regarding the pedal purchase. I’ve started using them with a pair of bike shoes and they work well.Oh I also added a floor mat and yes I’ve definitely started sweating a lot. No Pain No gain. If it hurts it works.I would recommend the Joroto X2 Spin Bike to anyone with a £500 budget.Update: I've now owned the X2 for four months and it's time to add to my initial review. The bike is still performing well after many hours of hard exercise. I ended up changing the Joroto pedals to a set of Shimano PD-M520 as the Joroto pedals didn't pass the longevity test. After speaking with Joroto, they reimbursed me for the pedals which was good of them.Added another sensor. The moofit Speed sensor which has been fitted to the flywheel. You’ll find clips on YouTube to help with the setting up of this as the sensor requires some fine adjustment to get the speed computation correct.I'd like to mention Joroto's customer service. It's been the best I've come across for a long time. I had an issue with the drive belt which was starting to show signs of damage due to the pinch roller being slightly out of alignment, I requested a replacement belt as the bike was still within warranty and Joroto's support was second to none. I was happily and very surprised when they said they would be dispatching a replacement brand new bike and true to their word a new bike arrived within days. A big thank you to Joroto.Update 21.06.23After two years of regular use this bike has proved to be worth every penny. No issues or faults.Update 03.07.24Another year in and the Joroto X2 hasn't shown any signs of wear and tear. Still use on a regular basis and still very happy with the purchase.
