Summary
The Horizon Fitness 5.0 R Recumbent Bike is a budget-friendly recumbent bike with high value. With 100 resistance levels and an adjustable padded seat that provides lumbar support, it brings a lot to the table that high-end bikes would provide, but at a more affordable price. Although there's only an LCD screen, the bike does provide Bluetooth connectivity and it syncs to most biking apps.
