Product Details
Spirit Fitness Exercise Bike - XBU55
Durable, comfortable, and smooth are all qualities of the XBU55 fitness bike.
Easy adjustments, a cooling fan, high density foam seat, challenging programs,
20 levels of resistance, and a bright LCD display are all standard.
Indoor exercise bikes have been around for many decades. Their appeal and effectiveness
have stood the test of time. Comfort, convenience, familiarity, enjoyment, and
medical conditions are a few reasons this modality appeals to a large segment
of the population.
Key Features:
- Adjustments
A vertical ratcheting, pop pin engaged seat post and micro adjustments of
the seat in the fore/aft direction
- Comfort
The dual spring seat is made of high durometer foam, and the pedals are also
padded for less stress on your feet.
- Muscle Activation
It’s important to understand which muscle groups are gaining the most
benefit during your workout. On our fitness bikes, you will be using your
glute (bottom), hamstring (back of your thigh), quad (thigh), and calf muscles.
- Heart Rate % Profile
There is a bar graph integrated into the console that lets you know where
your heart rate is in relation to projected maximum (calculated when you enter
your age in the programming section of each program).
- Flywheel System
A heavy duty 30 lb. flywheel results in more inertia (Revolutions Per Minute
& Watt output).
Features:
- CONSOLE FEEDBACK
All pertinent information is displayed during the workout and a summary of
accumulated data scrolls when you have finished.
- COOLING FAN
Cooling fans that swivel are standard on all of our fitness bikes. This may
just be the reason you extend your workout by a few minutes.
- HEART RATE % PROFILE
Heart Rate training is proven to be one of the best ways to measure your workout.
Our Heart Rate % Profile gives you a quick reference of your % compared to
maximum projected heart rate. The LED lights up in Amber for 50-60%, Green
for 65% to 80%, and Red for 85%+.
- MUSCLE ACTIVATION PROFILE
It’s important to understand which muscle groups are gaining the most
benefit during your workout. On our fitness bikes, you will be using your
glute (bottom), hamstring (back of your thigh), quad (thigh), and calf muscles.
The LED lights will activate in three degrees of engagement: Green represents
minimal muscle involvement, Amber for medium involvement, and Red, full or
heavy involvement. Use this quick reference to challenge yourself during your
workout.
- MP3 AUDIO JACK & SPEAKERS
We know how important it is to be able to enjoy your favorite music as you
workout, so we included an MP3 audio jack for you to plug in your choice of
MP3 player or cell phone. (Adapter cord provided)
- DURABILITY
All Spirit Fitness bikes are built with extra-heavy-gauge steel tubing to
give them a stable base, and use high-quality bearings rather than bushings
to ensure a longer life and smoother cycling action.
- COMFORT
The seat features a high durometer foam pad and dual springs.
- ADJUSTABILITY
Our upright fitness bikes not only allow forward and backward seat adjustment,
but they also feature an easy ratchet vertical adjustment.
- FOOT PEDALS
2° of inversion of each pedal places your body into an anatomically correct
position throughout the workout.
- TRANSPORTATION
There are transport wheels integrated into the front floor support tube for
ease of repositioning. Simply lift and tilt the front end to roll the unit
to your desired location.

Programs:
- HILL
This program follows a triangle or pyramid type of gradual progression from
approximately 10% of maximum effort (the level that you chose before starting
this program) up to a maximum effort which lasts for 10% of the total workout
time, then a gradual regression of resistance back to approximately 10% of
maximum effort.
- FAT BURN
This program follows a quick progression up to the maximum resistance level
(default or user input level) that is sustained for 2/3 of the workout. This
program will challenge your ability to sustain your energy output for an extended
period of time.
- CARDIO
This program presents a quick progression up to near maximum resistance level
(default or user input level). It has slight fluctuations up and down to allow
your heart rate to elevate, and then recover repeatedly, before beginning
a quick cool down. This will build up your heart muscle and increase blood
flow and lung capacity.
- STRENGTH
This program has a gradual progression of resistance up to 100% of maximum
effort that is sustained for 25% of workout duration. This will help build
strength and muscular endurance in the lower body and glutes. A brief cool
down follows.
- INTERVAL
This program takes you through high levels of intensity followed by recovery
periods of low intensity. This program utilizes and develops your “Fast
Twitch” muscle fibers which are used when performing tasks that are intense
and short in duration. These deplete your oxygen level and spike your heart
rate, followed by periods of recovery and heart rate drop to replenish oxygen.
Your cardiovascular system gets programmed to use oxygen more efficiently.
- MANUAL
The Manual program works as the name implies, manually. This means that you
control the workload and not the computer.
- USER (2X)
Two people can store personal information and design a custom program that
can be saved for future use. You decide what the resistance will be for each
segment of the program.
- HEART RATE (2x)
Designed to help keep you within 3-5 heart beats of your target heart rate
% by automatically increasing or decreasing the resistance level. Heart Rate
1 has a 60% (better for a fat loss goal) of projected heart rate maximum default.
Heart Rate 2 has an 80% (better for a cardiovascular conditioning goal) of
projected heart rate maximum default.
