Stationary cycles are used from a seated position, and you exercise with a circular pedaling motion. On a strider machine, you are in a standing position and use both your arms and legs to receive a total body workout. Striders also feature a more oval (or elliptical) pedal stroke. Strider machines are designed to replicate walking, running, or climbing, while stationary cycles are designed to replicate outdoor cycling.

Absolutely! The M5i features a drastically reduced footprint as compared to traditional ellipticals, and uses the same magnetic resistance system as our M Series cycles. That means the M5i Strider is also whisper-quiet, has extremely low maintenance needs, and has no need for external power!

M Connect is the newest display for the M3i and M5i and has replaced the M Series Converter. You can now connect to your favorite apps with no external devices required!

The M Series Converter has been discontinued, if you're looking for enhanced connectivity you can contact our parts department and order an M Connect display.

Not to worry, just reach out to our parts department to order our M Connect Display.

Our M5i Striders ship partially assembled on a pallet, and the process is a breeze! After purchase, you will receive a tracking number noting the projected delivery date, and once the M5i arrives at its destination terminal you will receive a call to assign a delivery appointment. There are no additional fees once purchased, the M5i goes straight from Keiser to you! The M5i will require a signature upon threshold delivery. If you encounter any trouble with your M5i delivery, please don't hesitate to reach out.

We will ship your M5i within 10 business days of placing your order. From there, transit time varies by location, but is generally between 5 to 7 business days. You will receive advanced notice of the delivery, as well as a delivery appointment window.

The M5i is compatible with the same Keiser apps as our industry-leading M3i Indoor Bike. While it's true most apps are specific to indoor cycles, you can still participate with your M5i.

No, the M5i is operated mechanically and through the two AA batteries in the computer console.

Yes, you can raise or lower the stationary handlebars as needed. The exercise arms are tall, though they can be used by riders of all heights.

The M5i is much more compact than conventional elliptical machines, and easy to move around! We do recommend a two-person team to move the M5i up any stairs. There are front mounted wheels that make relocating the machine simple, and with one person on the front and one on the back it is manageable.

The M5i is one of the most compact ellipticals on the market, and does not require much space. It measures 22.5” wide and 49” long. The M5i is around 63” tall, and you'll be 8” to 10” off the floor when using the M5i. You'll want vertical clearance equal to about 12” taller than you.

No, but there are stationary handlebars you can use near the computer console.

The foot pads are 16” in length and 5” wide – plenty of space for all shoe sizes.

While the M5i is much smaller than most conventional ellipticals, we do recommend a two-person team to move the M5i up a flight of stairs. There are front mounted wheels that make relocating the machine simple, and with one person on the front and one on the back it is manageable.
