I bought that stationary bike for $25 from a lady who is moving. It is an "Advantage Fitness". Its in great condition, however when I go to a harder "speed" or up my resistance i guess you would say, its kinda gets to be a bit choppy. What I mean by that is its not so smooth, maybe because I am not strong enough? I can get going a little bit then it almost comes to a sudden stop.. Is that normal? Is it because I am not that strong?

    I know what you mean, but I don't know what would be wrong with the bike. It sounds like when a regular bike has a loose chain. I would ask a repair shop about it though. Good luck!
