Peloton is the big name in indoor cycling, but the freebeat bike may give peloton a run for its money. The design is just a clean and good looking as the peloton bike at a slightly lower cost. This exercise bike also offers a different take on the cycling classes as well as scenic rides and a just ride mode that lets you do your own thing while tracking key stats and metrics.

thanks for posting

[@patpatmoomoo5524]

this is a NICE bike. Love the look and I had never seen how the "classes" on the screen . I can see the appeal. They have a sale right now and I'm really thinking it might be worth it (the BOOM bike is their economy model and with the sale pricing it's just $150 more than the echelon)... really want this!

[@TailHappyTV]

Totally agree, glad seeing the classes helped!

[@sirveyer]

I'm looking into a stationary bike for the first time. Your videos are great. What I'm looking for is an option to ride virtual routes, without a subscription. I don't want classes of any kind. Just some stats and a route. Does that exist? Thanks

[@kelseycole9315]

Thank you 🤩

[@TailHappyTV]

You’re welcome

[@maybellynestudy9921]

is the subscription for classes required? and can I used without turning the screen on?

[@edenalvi722]

Hi! I'm in the process of choosing a indoor bike and was wondering about your experience with the Free Beats Lit bike. Have you encountered any issues with the pedals or the bike overall?

[@jacobcuglietta2339]

Hey, I just heard of your channel. You seem like the perfect person to ask as you also have a large inseam and your videos are very informative. I am 6’3 with long legs. After reviewing your videos. I was wondering if the schwinn IX4 will be good? Or if there is a similar bike at a similar price. Thanks!

[@TailHappyTV]

Thanks 🙏 I think the ic4 would fit you well, the sunny 1805 is a comparable model that works well for us giraffes 🦒

[@Coffeelvrrr]

Another great vid! Do you have a review of the Boom bike?

[@TailHappyTV]

Thanks, I do not

[@Somebodythatsnotyourmother]

Can you use this bike with the peloton classes? I’d love to hear what the music sounds like I really like the appearance of it but I’m not sure about this classes.

[@gemini022]

Look great

[@In_Beta]

How long is the power adapter? I can’t find this info anywhere. Thanks for the review!

[@TailHappyTV]

I'm sorry I no longer have the bike in my possession to know the length

[@JustSheilz]

Never heard of this bike. Do you think these classes are better or on par with Peloton?

[@TailHappyTV]

I wouldn't actually say they're better or worse than peloton, mostly just a different style with a big focus on cadence and rhythm of the beat. The leaderboard and scoring system makes it addicting 🤙

[@tsahaiphillip1160]

Is the music mainstream music? Also can you use it in freee ride mode to do peloton classes?

[@TailHappyTV]

Pretty mainstream, you’d have to bring a separate display to do peloton classes, but the freebeat gives you all your metrics so you could follow along with peloton classes

[@rogueish28]

What I don't like about this bike is that there isn't a freeride competitive option... I consider myself a moderately competitive person, and I love the leader board, but it would be nice to be able to race against others... Especially in real time...

[@gates1980]

That be cool

[@josenavarrete6151]

Can you use the screen for other internet related searches/viewing?

[@TailHappyTV]

I don’t think so

[@Rebecca-oz2ob]

Do you recommend the Boom bike as a cheaper option?

[@TailHappyTV]

I never tried it, but it is certainly less expensive

[@dnbgrl84]

i’m a music person so this is probably the bike for me!!

[@michaeld1165]

Are there any additional costs involved for the classes?

[@TailHappyTV]

Yes

[@Julian-nt5wh]

I do not like that green screen studio thing they got going just watching it on this video is making me dizzy.... thank you for your video!

[@dnbgrl84]

that’s my favorite prt

[@ronaldwalton2076]

hopw is this for a my shotr wifr 5 ft tall

[@TailHappyTV]

The website list 4’11” as the minimum height for this bike

[@sheilawalker1230]

Can the just ride be used with peloton app?

[@TailHappyTV]

I forget

[@kamucanoe]

Unfortunately, this bike is trash. I bought it in August and it arrived with a broken usb-c cable. After a back and forth with their customer service and two months later, I haven’t received an actual replacement, but one wrong cable and an adapter for the wrong cable which doesn’t even power the monitor anymore and now I can’t even use the bike. Clearly cheap parts as now the flywheel and chains are squeaking horribly as I attempted to at least get my money’s worth while I waited for cables they didn’t expedite. The worst purchase i’ve ever made. Biggest headache. Don’t buy from Freebeat.

[@brittanydoner4750]

Is there a way to listen to your own music?!

[@TailHappyTV]

I think you’d have to pay your music independently from the app

[@carrickdubya4765]

So you are now resorting to click baiting since you never truly answer your own question on whether or not it's a Peloton alternative. Maybe I missed it in your conclusion, so please enlighten me. If you are reviewing something on its own merits then that's great, but dropping the Peloton name to get views has led me to unsubscribe.

[@TailHappyTV]

I guess the idea is to present the facts so the viewer can use critical thinking to draw their own conclusions based on the facts presented, rather than me make a definitive subjective claim. For some people this will be the best peloton alternative, but it’s not for everyone. Thanks for your time as a subscriber, I’m sorry I let you down.

[@Mayah428]

Lmao some ppl don’t have a brain. Thinking hurts their little brain 😂😂
