Stride 50 RCX Upright, right

Setup was surprisingly straightforward—took me about 20 minutes by myself. The resistance levels feel smooth and challenging, and the machine stays quiet even during a tough climb. Exactly what I needed for home cardio.

The upright frame fits perfectly in the corner of my living room, and I can actually pedal while watching TV without my knees hitting anything. Resistance changes are smooth enough that I forget I'm on a machine at all. Two weeks in and I've used it every single day.

Finally got the right upright model after my old one broke—the frame feels solid and it fits perfectly in my small home gym space.
