Great at Home Bike
Bladez Fitness Jet GS Indoor
I am new to spinning so I won't be able to tell you detailed things that the average or even avid spinner would want to know. I can tell you...it's heavy. Which is nice. I feel comfortable on it. It's very quiet. I can hear my television over it even on max resistance. I think the digital monitor is lacking. When riding on max resistance it should simulate an actual bike ride distance but the monitor only goes by wheel spin not distance. So my end result in mileage I think is skewed. When on a real bike with lots or resistance , I know I can go the same or even further distance but the monitor on this bike will show more distance on a light resistance level. So I think calories would also be skewed because of wheel spin too. But I think many people will have a body media arm band or heart rate monitor so these things won't be as irritating to those that do. Other than the monitor I say it's awesome! The back base of the bike has circular adjustments on the bottom to accommodate any floor area that may not be level. Would recommend to anyone.

We love this very quiet bike. Just need to have a gel seat. The seat is very firm and uncomfortable.
Excellent bike for the money. It was very easy to assemble, less than 30 minutes. The ride is smooth and quiet. I live it!!!
I have tried so many models of indoor fitness bike and finally got the Bladez Jet GS. Great, strong and very smooth indoor work out bike! I would recommend anyone to buy it!
I have been riding this bike nearly everyday for a month and it is rock solid. Nothing ever gets loose. My wife is 5'4" and I am 5'11" and it fits both of us and the adjustments are easy. The resistance adjustment is right on the handles and is just an easy tab you can move with your thumb. There are at least 10 settings but the most I can push is 7 so I think this bike will be challenging to most. The bike is very quiet; I don't even have to turn up the television while I ride.
One time I had a slight clicking towards the end of an hour ride. So I emailed Bladez customer service to find out if there was a quick fix I could do. They were very helpful and even scheduled a technician to come out on their own accord. Which would have been great except the clicking only happened one time for about 5 minutes in about 30 rides over 30 hours; so I canceled the tech visit. But I really appreciated how helpful they were.
Spins well and seems to be well built. It was easy to assemble. Plus, I bought it for my wife and she loves it, so no complaints.

I got Bladez Fitness Jet GS as a replacement for a Schwinn IC2. I purchased IC2 in December 2012. I had never before owned an indoor bicycle and really did not know what to expect. After using the IC2 for month, I realized that I want a bike with the following features:
-Belt drive instead of chain drive for quieter operation and no maintainance.
-Heavier flywheel (40lb+) for better momentum
-Easy to reach brake pads to remove them occationally and soften them with silicone spray
-Handlbars friendly to an ipad holder
Bladez GS meets all of my requirements.
It was super easy to assemble. The belt drive is super quite. The seat is not too bad. I have not had the need to change it yet.
The holder for my ipad sits firmly atop the handlebards so that I can watch movies or read while exercising. Not to mention the bike has a very appealing look (the Schwinn IC2 looked really bland with all gray).
The bike feels solid and does what it's supposed to do: generate plenty of sweat in a very short period of time.
So far I'm satisfied and would definitely recommend.
PS. This bike is probably the cheapest bike you can buy with a belt drive.
I just want to say that this is a great bike for anyone who is looking to start DIY spin biking. I got it not to long ago and i have to say that it is great. the handle bars have a lot going on (resistance control, hand break, and forearm rests) but once you get used to it its not a big deal. the seat is a little uncofortable but i have to be honest I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE found a bike seat that is comfortable. Bikes seats are designed to put pressure on your "sit" bones and thats just the way it is. I did get a gell seat cover and that has made a big diference and also once your "sit" bones get used to having pressure there its not to bad, just like with any new excercise your body just has to get used to it. Bottom line great bike, great price and supper fast delivery! LOVE IT!
13 Dec 2012. So the bike started making this strange humming noice and it only got louder the harder i pedaled and i couldnt figure out why. i finally got tired of the noice and i adjusted the resistance pads (moved them up a little) and viola the problem was fixed. I still love the bike and i think that for the price it was a great purchase.
