Our Review of the Sprint GB-Mag Magnetic Indoor Cycle
How Easy is the Indoor Cycle to Build?
Extremely simple to build. Attach the front and rear stabilisers, seat, handlebars and console and you're ready to ride.
What are the first impressions?
This is a really nice bike that a look and feel of high quality. Here are some of the things that we like:
- Console is wireless, so there are no trailing cables or connectors
- Large sweat guard over the flywheel
- Water bottle holder included
- Both seat and handlebars can be adjusted horizontally and vertically so that you can achieve your perfect cycling position
- It's a magnetic resistance bike so there's virtually no maintenance
- Pedals can take cycling shoes or normal training shoes
- Paintwork is finished to a very high standard which gives a great first impression
What's it like to ride?
It's a super smooth, super quiet bike to ride. Here are our findings:
- It's easy to control the resistance by turning the control knob through a series of clicks (there are over 30 resistance levels). You can then always work to the same resistance settings throughout your training session
- Because it has magnetic resistance there is no wear, so your training sessions can be repeated time and again without having to compensate for bike wear
- Incredibly quiet and smooth
- Can withstand really hard training sessions. At high resistance and high speeds the bike is very stable
- The bike has a maximum resistance of about 600w which means that you can sit or stand when cycling and get a really good workout.
- Emergency stop is a great feature if you need to stop pedalling in a hurry. It's also very accessable and easy to use
Any niggles?
No. A good bike, well made and very easy to live with.
Anything else to add?
This bike has got pretty much everything that you need and is really high quality.
Overall Impression?
If you're looking for a high quality indoor cycle that requires very little maintenance; is well made; has a great specification and is built to last then this could be the bike for you.

Cycle Specific Questions
Q. I've seen a chain driven bike for the same price - why should I buy the belt driven bike?
A. We always recommend buying a belt driven bike. They're quieter, cleaner and require less maintenance. Unless you like covering yourself in oil and frequently maintaining your bike, then avoid a chain bike and buy a belt drive.
Q. I need a bike to use when the kids are asleep. Would this be OK?
A. All belt drive bikes are quiet, and when they also have magnetic resistance they're almost silent. So, yes, this bike will be perfect for you.
Q. There's a part missing from the console - I've checked the manual and it says that I have to attach this part to the bike?
A. You're referring to the console transmitter - it's already attached to the bike. Just put the console on the bike, start pedalling and you'll find that the console works.
Q. Do the pedals take SPD cleats?
A. Yes. You can use this bike with cycling shoes.
Q. What's the difference between a light commercial and full commercial grade magnetic indoor cycle?
A. It's to do with the level of use that the bikes are designed to take - full commercial bikes can be used all day every day in indoor cycling classes. Light commercial bikes are more suited for use when there are maybe only 3-4 classes per day.
General Questions
Q. Is this bike difficult to assemble?
A. No - instructions are included and we cover the build in our review of the bike as well. Just pay particular attention to attaching the pedals correctly.
Q. Can you assemble the bike for me?
A. Yes. We can deliver the bike fully assembled. We will pack/wrap the bike for transportation but can't accept liability for any damage that is caused whilst the bike is in transit. Alternatively, we can arrange for a technician to visit your home to build the bike for you at an additional cost (please ask for current prices).
Q. Do I need a mat underneath the bike?
A. We recommend that you have a mat underneath your indoor cycle to protect the floor but it's entirely up to you.
Q. Do you sell second hand or refurbished bikes?
A. Generally not. Unfortunately it's not cost effective for us to refurbish indoor cycles to a standard that would be in keeping with our reputation. To fully refurbish an indoor cycle, the crank; crank arms; flywheel bearings; drive belt; pedals; seat and handlebars all need to be replaced. In addition, the frame needs to be checked for corrosion and distortion. In doing this work to the correct standard, the price of a fully refurbished indoor bike would be about the same as a new one. It's for this reason that we don't normally offer refurbished or second hand bikes for sale, and we strongly recommend that you fully understand how a bike has been refurbished before buying one.
