The bike is great!
Assembly was somewhat straightforward, you just have to be in a patient mood.
It is super quiet compared to exercise bikes of past decades.
That being said, there are a few extra features that make the NordicTrack stand out.

So you might still be in “that” crowd while still having a better bike!
It rides so quiet and smooth, and the design is very sleek.
