"What you should know
before purchasing a treadmill."
Click to read letter by Jim Thurman
Thurman’s Bike & Sport carries a complete line of fitness equipment and
accessories year round to keep you fit whether it is in the dead of winter or
the heat and humidity of summer. We have the equipment to keep you excited about
your workout program.
The Schwinn Airdyne has been around for as long as we’ve been in business and it
is still one of the preferred pieces of exercise equipment today. The Airdyne
and the newer Airdyne Comp are still the only equipment made today that provide
upper and lower body exercise in a non-load bearing method. We have sold several
thousands of these through the years to schools, hospitals and home consumers
and we have yet to see one break down or wear out. Schwinn’s lifetime warranty
on the Airdyne is true testimony as to the great product that these are. Stop in
for a test ride; we try to keep both models in stock year round.
Our largest growth area in fitness equipment has been the treadmill and we carry
four different brands and several models of each. For the consumer who likes to
walk or jog lightly, the Schwinn and Trimline models are an excellent value that
will hold up for 10 years or longer. Our Nautilus, Trimline and Landice models
are designed for residential, light commercial and heavy commercial use. Many of
the models we stock have grip hear rate, telemetric heart rate and a number of
programs for walkers, joggers and runners. Need to save space? We carry several
models in a fold up version.
The Bowflex is no longer just sold on TV. We stock several models of this
resistance weight machine that is easy to use, easy to move and safe for an
individual to workout alone. You’ll be amazed at the number of exercises you can
perform with these machines and how quickly you’ll see results in just a couple
of weeks. Our pricing is lower than what you will find on the TV or the Bowflex
website. Stop in for a demonstration.
We also carry elliptical, recumbent, upright stationary bikes and a large
selection of hand and ankle weights, toning accessories, exercise mats and heart
rate monitors.
Institutional sales are also up our alley. In 2004 we won the bid for a five
school exercise equipment grant and outfitted Henderson Health Services with
over 25 pieces of commercial equipment. In addition we have had over 35 pieces
of commercial equipment operating at the Ambassador Wellness Center over the
past seven years. If your company or school is in need of quality, long-lasting
equipment, look no further. We will provide you the best pricing and the best
service on your equipment purchase.
And speaking of service, no one is more dedicated at demonstrating all the
features of your new equipment at the time of purchase. With a background in
electronics and almost 25 years of servicing equipment, your new exercise
equipment will be professionally assembled and adjusted, and in most cases
delivered at no charge. Should you ever experience any problems, they will be
quickly and correctly repaired.
