XTERRA Fitness FB150 versus FB350 Folding Exercise Bike, Comparison Review

For such a low price, the Xterra Fitness FB150 and FB350 Folding Exercise Bikes are surprisingly well-built, sturdy and quiet in operation, and with a nice compact design that won’t take up much valued space in your home.

As you can see from the pictures, the main difference between the Xterra Fitness FB150 and FB350 Exercise Bikes comes down to the design of the seat – the FB350’s seat features a lower backrest along with handles by the side of the seat which the FB150 doesn’t have.  This enables you to use the bike in a semi-recumbent position for a more laid-back feel or you can sit upright and hold onto the handlebars around the console as with the FB150 for a more traditional cycling experience.

Other differences between the Xterra Fitness FB150 and FB350 Exercise Bikes include a slight difference in overall dimensions and weight of the bike, with the FB150 having a slightly smaller footprint and weighing slightly less than the FB350 (see full dimensions listed in the table below).

The Xterra FB350 also has the addition of a handy accessory holder mounted on the frame which the FB150 does not have.

Apart from the different features mentioned above, the rest of the Xterra Fitness FB150 and FB350’s features are exactly the same.  Both exercise bikes are straightforward and easy to use with the same console and drivetrain.

Both the Xterra Fitness FB150 and FB350 Folding Exercise Bikes’ drivetrain utilize a 3.3 lb precision balanced flywheel, smooth belt drive system and quiet friction-free magnetic resistance.

Both the Xterra FB150 and FB350 exercise bikes offer a good range of 8 levels of magnetic resistance which is easily adjustable via a simple-to-use turn dial knob located on the frame in front of you underneath the console.  You are in total control of your workout – start off at a low setting and increase the intensity when you feel ready to keep challenging yourself.

As previously mentioned, the Xterra Fitness FB150 and FB350 Exercise Bikes both utilize the same console.  The console is battery operated (no need to find a space near a wall socket/power outlet to place your bike!) and features a 2” x 1” LCD screen that clearly displays motivating workout stats as you cycle including time, speed, distance, calories burned and heart rate.  Your heart-rate is measured via pulse grip sensors built into the handlebars each side of the console.

Both the Xterra Fitness FB150 and FB350 Exercise Bikes feature non-slip pedals and adjustable foot straps for safety.  Both bikes also utilize a 3-piece pedal crank system for added durability.

Both the Xterra Fitness FB150 and FB350 Exercise Bikes feature an x-frame folding design to help save even more space when not in use.  The FB150 folds to a slightly smaller footprint than the FB350 - 18.1 x 18.1” for the FB150 compared to 20.5 x 21” for the FB350 folded.  Both bikes also feature front-mounted transport wheels for ease of relocation.
