The bike is hefty, with a shipping weight of 149 lbs and an assembly weight of 145 lbs, so you may want to have someone assist you in assembling it—it will help in moving the box and holding sections while they're attached to the frame. That said, it's not impossible to put together by yourself, but be sure to use caution and try not to hurt yourself in any way when handling the frame parts. When fully assembled, the NordicTrack GX recumbent bike is in good shape and doesn't have many defects. The tires are low on air pressure, but other than that, everything else on the bike is in good condition. It also comes with two replacement light bulbs and one set of handlebars. Overall, this is a great exercise bike for home use because of its reasonable price and high quality construction. However, due to its size and weight, it's not very convenient to transport.
