Quietness and stability
[one_half]Although quietness may not be considered one of the most important factors when choosing a new indoor exercise bike, it’s one of the factors that can help make the decision if you have narrowed down a shortlist and are looking for differences to put one bike ahead of the rest.
The LiveStrong 9.9IC has a very quiet operation compared to many other bikes, which is helped by the smoothness of the belt system and high quality flywheel design. The smooth break also helps keep the noise to a minimum.
A more important factor along with ease of use is stability.[/one_half]

If you have already tried a range of indoor exercise bikes, either at your local gym or at home in the past, then you will no doubt have seen how some bikes seem to be a bit less stable than others. There are no such worries with the LiveStrong 9.9IC as the construction is very stable and there is no shaking of loose parts.

Assembly and maintenance
When it comes to assembling the LiveStrong 9.9IC, this is a fairly simple task thanks to the majority of the frame already being constructed, and there being relatively few parts. One thing worth noting is that the bike can be heavy to move around and attach the various parts to when setting up, so it might be worth finding an extra person to help you with this when the time comes.
With such a high quality piece of fitness equipment you will probably want to keep it running as smoothly as possible for as long as possible. This can be helped with an application of WD40 or similar to the flywheel every month to 6 weeks, and pedal connections using a simple 3 in 1 oil product to keep everything smooth and quiet when in use.
