The tension on the recumbent exercise bike does not get hard

If changing the batteries on the recumbent exercise bike doesn't make the tension change as much as it should, then the tension should be adjustable some other way. To get access to this adjustment, do I need to take apart the housing of the exercise bike?

If your bike has magnetic resistance and you changed the batteries this should make your tension work properly. Since it did not I believe that there are magnets somewhere on your bike that are wearing out. Or it could be a computer part. Your manual should tell what part you need to order and replace. I hope this information has been helpful.

Also make sure the batteries that you put in your bike are really new ones. Sometimes you can purchase new batteries at a store and they are actually a little weak. I had this problem with an elyptical trainer and I went and got other batteries and this fixed the problem.

If you have not used your machine in about a year, most likely the battery is dead. You can find most of the parts you may need here:

Resistance settings not working on fitnex r70 magnetic resistance exercise bike

If this is a new bike that may be the way it is. If it worked differently in the past, you may be looking at a busted tension motor or faulty brake.

What's better a recumbent or an upright exercise bike?

Recumbent bike works best for elderly people with back and hip problems because of the relaxed position and the angle that put's less pressure on those areas. Upright exercise bike works on more areas than the recumbent bikes including the lower abdominal muscles.
