Top 10 Best Portable Exercise Bikes
for June 2023

When you're getting in a good workout, it's essential to have a bike that suits your needs and space. A bike's size, weight, and height all impact how easy it is to use, move, and store. While a stationary bike is a good option, we frequently test bikes for portability, including folding bikes, recumbent bikes, and spin bikes.

While portable bikes are great to have at home, they're also great for traveling, whether you're taking a vacation or visiting family. They're also great for exercising at the gym, and when you're not traveling, they're ideal for exercising at home, whether you're working out in your basement or living room. While folding bikes are easier to store, recumbent bikes are more comfortable and spin bikes are faster.

In the Different Guide , we test bikes for performance, including speed, resistance, and pedal smoothness. We also test how easy they are to set up, move, and store. We evaluate how easy they are to clean and how well each bike handles a variety of terrains, such as hills, dirt, and grass.

Here are the best folding bikes, recumbent bikes, and spin bikes of 2022:
