Vision X6200 Folding Elliptical

The X6200 is our top-of-the line elliptical model, featuring a large, stable frame design with patented folding pedal arms that allow compact storage. The long pedal arms with pivoting footplates and 19.75-inch stride give the X6200 its superior motion, while the variable-durometer footpads and multi-position handgrips give you a comfortable workout no matter how long you exercise.

Elliptical Features:

Foldable Frame
Our patented folding frame provides the comfortable motion of larger elliptical trainers with the storage ability of a much smaller machine.
Long Pedal Arms
Our long pedal arms and pivoting footplates are key factors in our comfortable and natural stride motion.
Cushioned Footplates
The soft rubber, variable-durometer footpads provide cushioning and traction for a safe and comfortable workout.
ECB Motor-Operated Brake
This electronically controlled resistance system uses six magnets and a heavy 21-pound flywheel to supply friction free resistance.
QUIET-GLIDE™

Supersilent Poly-V Belt Drive
Our QUIET-GLIDE™ drive technology utilizes a multi-ribbed, supersilent Poly-V belt to create the quietest elliptical drive possible.

Very Happy Life Fitness Bike customer

Hey Tony,

Got my straps. Thanks so much for everything. I've copied my review of my experience with Fitness 909 below. Please feel free to post to your website etc...

Thanks again!

PAUL

I purchased a refurbished Lifecycle 9500 from Tony at Fitness 909 in June. I would like to express what a wonderful experience I had. I've been looking into getting this bike for quite some time. I've always been this kind of shopper... LOTS of research. I began working out
in 1990 and developed my personal workout routine which always included lots of cardio on this particular bike. I've tried other bikes and other cardio machines but none get it done for me like the Lifecycle (chain-drive). So this was an important purchase for me.

After doing lots of on-line digging and making lots of calls I found my way to Fitness 909. I explained to Tony what I was looking for and he told me that he could beat the best price I found, and sure enough he did. Not only did he beat the price but he called me back many times to make sure we were talking about the exact bike that I wanted, down to the color. Now this might seem like fairly obvious stuff, but when you are dealing with older equipment that is to be refurbished there is a bit more to consider. Every step of the way I felt that Tony had one priority.. to make sure I got exactly what I was looking for and was happy with the process.

The bike came (from California to Pennsylvania) exactly when he said it would. It looks and operates like a new bike. As good if not better than described. The great and friendly service did not end with the sale. Most people don't use the pedal straps that originally came with the Lifecycle. I prefer them. My bike arrived without them. I contacted Tony, he apologized for the oversight and had them shipped right out to me.

I don't always get this kind of customer service. In fact, it seems I receive it less and less these days. So I want to shout from the mountain top when I do. Bottom line... great product and great service!! Thanks Tony!

Refurbished Fitness Equipment Vs. New Fitness Equipment

Before you read this whole article, I will not be answering the question which is better. I will however, help you decide which is better for you. There are two types of fitness equipment customers :

First --- The person to which this site is dedicated to, a new to fitness customer, just starting a program and has never worked out before.

Second --- The Person that has worked out before at a gym, and now is looking for fitness equipment for their home.

If money was not an object " New" would be the way to go, no matter who you are . If you have been working out at a gym for a while there is not a chance that you would be happy with any type of home cardio or strength equipment. You are looking at $5000 to $6000 for a Treadmill or Elliptical like the one you have been using in your gym and $7000 to $9000 for strength equipment. This is where refurbished equipment is the answer. For about 40% less you can get the exact same equipment that you have been using in your gym.

What are you giving up when you go with "Refurbished"?

1. You are not going to get a 2 year Parts, 1 year labor warranty, like you get with a new one. At Fitness 909 we give a 30 day parts and labor warranty. No, we are not afraid that because it was used that it is going to break down and cost us a fortune. Most refurbished equipment is sold to gyms, hotels, properties or somewhere were there is a maintenance person on staff. Parts are very inexpensive and these customers know that they can fix most problems for less than $100 so they have asked us to lower the warranty so they can save money on the purchase. If you bought this for your home and you had a few problems with your unit and you have had to put another $400 into it, you are still better off financially then purchasing a new one.

2. The truth is, over the past few years I have probably made at least three attempts to set up a strength gym at my home. I have ended up selling it each time and went back to the gym. I never had enough space or money to set up a complete gym to do a total workout, so I was still going to the gym.

New equipment is a great choice, especially if you are just starting out. You haven't been spoiled with full commercial equipment that you get at a gym, and you are only going to be doing your basic strength exercises so a multi gym will work great for you. Still, I stress you get what you pay for. So if the words "I just want to try one out to see if I like it " comes to mind, save your money you are going to fail. Do not shop at your big box stores. You need to go to a fitness specialty store or a
e-commerce site that only sells fitness equipment. You should spend at least $1,500 for a cardio piece and a least $2000 for a home gym. Yes, you need to purchase a complete home gym not a bench and weight set. You can only do your chest and maybe shoulders with a weight set you need to work your entire body.

To wrap it up, remember this, one piece of equipment can not do it all. I only have a bike at my house, but I regularly go to the gym for my workout. I use my bike on the days I miss. If you really want new equipment but want the feel of commercial equipment Light Commercial can give you the best of both worlds.
