I want to point out that the description of this bike says, "both telemetry and contact heart rate monitoring." The product description talks about using a chest strap for your heart rate but no chest strap is included with your purchase. I find that to be a little deceptive.
If you wish to take advantage of the chest strap you must buy a polar compatible chest strap for around $40 in addition to paying extra for the bike compared to the model 130.
The seat has come loose and required re-tightening and the straps on the pedals hit the ground if you have them in the smallest position.
Riding the bike is very smooth but the display has to be at the right angle or you can't read it. I am 5' 11" and I have the seat in hole 3, and the display as flat as it can go to be able to read it.
The water bottle holder is nice but for the price they should throw in a water bottle too.
The leveling legs on the back stabilizer are a good feature. Despite what others have said, I found the assembly instructions pretty clear and easy to follow. Pay attention to the details and you shouldn't have a problem.
In summary it appears to be a nice exercise bike but I'm not sure that the features you get with the Model 140 justify the large price increase over the Model 130.
