Sunny 1805 conversion to Peloton resistance: • Post
The Peloton bike is far more popular and expensive then the sunny 1805, but just how much better is the peloton bike+ and what are the similarities and differences? I compare the drive trains and the metrics of each of these bikes and then create a sunny 1805 resistance chart towards the end of this video (I saw there is one out there but I wanted to create my own, I did not look at the one that's out there for reference, i made this one completely on my own feelings) Also this sunny 1805 peloton resistance chart is a bit easier and intuitive then all the decimals and weird numbers on the other one.

I discovered in the last couple of days as I’ve played with my new bike, that cadence doesn’t matter. At my age and at my out of shape physical condition, simply getting the pedals around in a circle is an accomplishment!

Awesome videos man. I purchased the 1805 a few days ago through your link. Rides really smooth! And I appreciate the amount of inside knowledge you share in your reviews.

Thanks to your reviews I bought an 1805 and received it today via Amazon. I’m a thorough shopper and finally pulled the trigger. I set it up in an hour and did my first 30 min ride. I couldn’t be happier. I can’t believe how smooth and quiet it is! Build quality is excellent and so is the finish. I’m one happy 70 year old spinner.

The 1805 continues to be a great bike. It is such a smooth ride and can offer a good challenge. I don't need the metrics to ride and enjoy a chance to do different spin programs. The 1805 is a solid bike. Really good video. As a non Peloton bike owner but a user of the app, your chart is helpful. Thanks Matt. Keep em coming. Happy riding.

And...you sold me! Thanks. I've watched a bunch of your videos and decided to go for Sunny 1805. Thank you. Followed links for bike and Wahoo. Now I'm off to figure out if I have everything for a DIY Peleton experience. Hopefully I can assemble it ok. Saw your unpacking. I'm challenged in that department but I'm going to give it a try. UPDATE / They raised the price to $770! I'm glad I grabbed it at $600. That's waaayyy too much. Oh, and it was easy to set up! Package arrived beat up and the bike was fine.

Thank you so much for your review! I purchased the Sunny SF-B1805 based on your review and it's exactly what I was looking for. A solid bike with magnetic resistance and a super smooth ride. If you need more resistance this bike has that as well. I was riding in our living room and my wife could not even hear me riding. I'm so glad I found your review! I didn't want to buy a super expensive bike, but also didn't want a bike that was cheaply made that was no fun to ride and just sat around. This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you again!

I just bought a Sunny 1805 at a garage sale for $40. Best money I ever spent. When I looked up the price for a new one and found out it is $600 new I was amazed that it was priced so cheap at the sale. It is a great exercise bike for anyone who doesn’t need a lot of bells and whistles.

This channel persuaded me to buy the Sunny 1805 and I love it. It is built to be very sturdy. I use zero video applications/classes/programs, etc. to work out but do have the Wahoo software to track speed and cadence. I read instead. Plus I don't come close to using its maximum resistance. But magnetic resistance was important to me in addition to having a belt drive too. Great bike! Many thanks TrailHappy TV!

You can't beat Sunny Health and Fitness for the pricepoint and application. I would never buy a Peloton even if I had the budget. I also have a Sunny Health Row n Ride, which was super affordable and offers a great work out. Nice review.

Love your videos thank you. Couldn’t bring myself to spending the $2500 on the Peleton, even if I could afford it 😜 I opted for the Sunny, due to not being obligated to subscriptions and great price however the one that you reviewed was out, the B1805 so I bought Sunny synergy pro magnetic B1851 since specs were similar with the option that I could use my spin shoes. Do you know if there any other major difference or have you done reviews.

I bought the spd clips for the sunny pedals, it’s my first time using shoes with spd cleats, is it normal to be very difficult to clip in at first?

@ronron3847 3 жыл бұрын

@Natalie Yes it is difficult when first clipping in. It takes a little practice. Sometimes your cleat tension is to tight and it's really hard to clip in (In Matt's video on changing pedals he shows you how to change the tension). But keep practicing. It gets better and it makes a difference in your ride. Happy riding.

@pandatours 3 жыл бұрын

It depends on what kind of pedals the bike comes with. The Sunny bike here has cage pedals so you can wear any type of athletic shoe. You can switch out the pedals for SPD or Delta if you prefer. Peleton has cage and delta, but I’ve seen many people online switch the pedals out for SPD

You could get power meter pedals... expensive I know especially when they cost more than most of those bikes there. But you could put them on every bike there and get a more accurate power output and compare better to the Peloton. It would give you a lot more video content to test all bikes and you could start a website and get a crap ton of traffic. Or not lol

@CoolBreeZe2754 3 жыл бұрын

I use the Favero Assiomo Uno power meter pedals on my 1805 , combined with mpaceline app which integrates nicely with peloton app for half the price of Peloton bike+. Can now do the powerzone workouts with more accurate power measurement than the Peloton bike.
