I love Freebeat!!
I love Freebeat!! I have owned the bike for 10 months now. I am a busy mom and although my goal is at least 30 mins, I like that I can get on for a quick 15 min class just to have some “me time.” I like completing the Daily and Weekly Tasks and the option to get a few bucks back every month. It’s small but it’s something! Also keeping up with the beat keeps me going. I also like that the bike will automatically change the resistance while doing a class and you can turn off the feature if you want. Getting extra points for rising while biking is a fun feature but it means that you can’t replace the seat cushion. The bike is comfortable and I like that the monitor moves all the way around to do other workouts. Edward’s classes are my favorite. I love his encouraging messages while I work out. I do wish there was more contemporary Christian music again or a category to find them. I have to scroll to find them. My next favorite thing to do is the scenic ride. Especially getting to bike through towns. I do wish they had more big cities like NYC! Another feature that I like is part of the LesMills “The Trip.” It feels like you are biking through a video game. The dance classes are so much fun as well. I have a few complaints. One, I wish I could set my own music but I have the freebeat lit and it doesn’t work on the app. Also, although my AirPods connect, my apple watch will not connect, I cannot track my heart rate through the bike. Some of the classes sadly are repeats, I’ve come across 3 of Edward’s that were the same but labeled differently. The machine is beautiful but I wish the water bottle holder was more functional, none of my bottles stay put I end up having to set my water to the side on a table nearby. I use the holders to awkwardly hold my phone and my AirPod case. I found out that my bike would glitch out if I left it on sleep mode, so I always have to power off after a workout. Lastly, I wish there was a feature to watch a streaming service or an Apple play feature? I’m guessing it’s licensing but it would be nice. Overall I am happy and thankful that I purchased this bike and that I continued the subscription. My positives outweigh the negatives. I hope this was helpful and that you decide to be apart of the freebeat fam!
