Re: Tall rider (6'4)
From what I’m reading is the rower is the one to get first - meaning if I’m only going to own one, it’s going to be the rower. I’d also add that adding a regular bike (ie road or mountain bike) for outdoor use would also always be an option (courtesy of sunny Cali weather). Personally less concerned...

Re: BikeErg vs Rowerg
Thanks for the thoughtful replies. I may - juuuust may - be leaning towards rower at this point.

Re: Tall rider (6'4)
So for both of you that bought the bike while already having the rower, what made you want the bike? Was it just wanting some variety, or something inherent about rowing / cycling that made you prefer the bike over rowing? Second, which one do you find yourself spending the most time on / gravitate ...

Re: BikeErg vs Rowerg
Space and time are at a premium for me unfortunately, so I need to make sure that the one I'm getting is what will get me what I need. What I need is - relatively quick (ie max 30 mins) workouts that will help w cardio training as well as just simply get my legs to stop being antsy after a long day ...

Re: BikeErg vs Rowerg
We may be talking about different things. I'm not disputing the fact that there is some horizontal adjustability on the saddle on the BikeErg - in fact, that's exactly the same as you'd have as with a normal bike. What I mean is that there's less adjustability as compared to some of the other indoor...

Re: BikeErg vs Rowerg
The lack of horizontal saddle adjustability on the bike You've been mislead in that regard. The Bikeerg saddle position is completely adjustable. I'd love to be wrong on that - but my understanding was that the BikeErg doesn't have the same amount of fore/aft movement as, say, a Peloton / Schwinn /...

Re: BikeErg vs Rowerg
Thanks - that's helpful. When you say more "tolerable", what specifically are you referring to? Less monotonous perhaps, given you may be comparing indoor bike with actual being on a bike outside, or something else? Time is at a premium indeed - both from perspective of not always having enough time...

BikeErg vs Rowerg
So I'm on the fence about a new purchase - whether to get a BikeErg or Rower ((un)fortunately, at this point I'm pretty set on getting something from C2 and this is probably not the forum where I'll get convinced not to do so...). Main motivation for purchase is that I want a piece of equipment is f...

Re: Tall rider (6'4)
Thanks - that's helpful. Still going back and forth on whether to get the rower or bikeerg. Feels like if going with the bike, there are a lot more options besides the Concept 2 - whereas with the rower it's pretty straightforward on where to get that one... Good problems to have I guess, but will c...

Tall rider (6'4)
Hi - new to the forum and potentially (hopefully soon!) new to C2 products as well. Question with regards to a taller user for the BikeErg - I am ~6'4 or ~1.95 for us metric users. I know the specifications note an inseam of something comfortably of what I possess, but was wondering if other people ...
