Nordictrack Grand Tour Exercise Bike Review – Pros & Con’s

*TreadmillReviewGuru helps consumers find the best home fitness products. When you buy a product we recommend, we may earn a commission.

Last Updated: January 1, 2023

The Grand Tour Pro is an upright bike similar to the Grand Tour Pro with a few minor differences that keep the price low. The Grand Tour features a 7” HD touchscreen (rather than 10” on the Pro), offers 32 onboard programs (instead of 35) and 24 resistance levels (rather than 26). The Grand Tour is iFit compatible, includes the innovative +10% Incline and -10% Decline feature, and offers tech found on more expensive bikes at an attractive price-point.

Who It’s For: Riders looking for impressive specs on a comfortable upright bike

The GrandTour is best for users looking for:

• 7” Touchscreen to display iFit programs
• Built-in Incline/Decline
• Freewheel clutch so bike pedals stop when you do
• Upright design for comfort
• Extra-wide pedals
• Large padded saddle

Our Video Review

• 7” HD Touchscreen with readouts for wattage, speed, calories, duration, etc.
• iFit is included free for one month
• Resistance and Incline auto-adjust for you
• +10% Incline and -10% Decline settings
• EasyControl buttons to manually adjust Incline and Resistance
• Stabilizers under rear base keep bike solid while you ride
• Fan built into console
• Three points of adjustment
• Wide expanse from saddle to handlebar enables space for all size riders
• Wide, padded seat for comfort
• No EKG heart rate sensors
• FlyWheel is a freewheel clutch, so it can feel jerky to new users
• Handlebars and seat cannot be swapped out
• The 7” touchscreen on the Grand Tour has crisp graphics and high resolution. The screen keeps you interested and engaged. It positioned directly in the line of vision without encroaching on a rider’s headspace.
• iFit is NordicTrack’s signature program that offers over 16,000 different workouts led by personal trainers. On the Grand Tour, you can join a studio-based cycling class and ride alongside other cyclists — or you can select from any number of gorgeous outdoor routes filmed all over the world. iFit provides a myriad of interesting and abundant training options.
• A motor on the rear stabilizer lifts and tilts the bike to simulate outdoor grades. The combination of incline and 24 levels of magnetic resistance makes it feel as close as you can get to outdoor riding. This feature also significantly increases training variables.
• Magnets oppose the motion of the flywheel to create frictionless resistance.
• Magnetic resistance is silent and easily regulated electronically through preset resistance levels. It does not cause wear on the flywheel.
• Digital resistance is calibrated and consistent. Many cycling bikes still use friction resistance that is adjusted via a tension knob. One problem with this type of resistance is the tension is variable and hard to calculate. Digital resistance allows riders to find and achieve the same level of resistance each time on each level.
• QuickTouch preset buttons on the console flank the screen. Resistance is on the right with Incline on the left.
• Manual +, – buttons on the extension grips are easy to reach.
• Additional +,- large buttons sit at the bottom of the console.
• Touchscreen controls also allow riders to increase or decrease resistance and incline
• Horizontal saddle adjustment (via seat knob)
• Vertical saddle adjustment (via carriage knob)
• Vertical handlebar/console adjustment (via stem knob)
• The wide, well-designed seat on the Grand Tour is a welcome addition for those looking to be comfortable while they ride. This seat provides both support and padding.
• Extra-wide flat pedals with adjustable straps will keep your feet in position. Straps also allow you to “pull up” at the top of the pedal stroke, engaging glutes and hamstrings, so you get more out of the full pedal rotation.

In-depth Review of NordicTrack Grand Tour Pro

Frame: welded steel.

• Material: Steel bar construction with welded support beams and stabilizers hold the bike securely. Black plastic molding protects the flywheel and drivetrain. Similar to the Grand Tour Pro, the handlebars are a combination of powder-coated steel bars with plastic molding on the corners and ends of the grips.

Geometry: Upright Articulating Cycle

• Upright Design: The Grand Tour is an upright, articulating cycle, so you can set the seat post and handlebars as low or as high as you want. This has appeal for riders who like to sit upright rather than hunched over. However, you can also bring the seat and handlebars into alignment, decreasing torso angle, for a more race-style body angle.

FlyWheel: 16 Pound Freewheel clutch

• FlyWheel weight & functionality The freewheel clutch on the Grand Tour mimics the wheel motion of a traditional bike. The Grand Tour flywheel is only 16 pounds, so without momentum, the wheel will almost instantly stop. The benefit of this is no energy is lost in inertia on the flywheel. When you pedal, all of your effort goes into moving the flywheel — it won’t keep spinning on its own. One negative is the pedal motion can feel jerky until you get used to it. It also requires a higher resistance level to counterbalance the weight of the rider when riding up out of the saddle in 2nd or 3rd position.
• Specific resistance levels are nice on an indoor cycling bike. Many spin bikes have a tension knob, but no specific resistance settings, so you can’t regulate or measure the resistance. It is hugely beneficial to be able to select any of the 24 resistance levels on this bike. It translates into more accurate wattage stats and allows the rider to always find the same resistance at the same setting.
• Resistance can be adjusted manually on the handlebar controls or on the touchscreen.
• When using an iFit or onboard program, the resistance will automatically adjust for you. Manual controls override automated controls when needed.

Saddle: Adjusts up/down and forward/aft

• Adjustments: The seat can be moved forward and aft via a knob on the carriage bar. A knob on the seat post allows the seat to be raised or lowered. Large notches in the steel post hold the seat post securely and the tension knob tightens easily.
• Comfort: The Grand Tour saddle wide and comfortable. It offers more padding than other indoor cycling bikes. The saddle cannot be swapped out for a different seat, but that’s not an issue because it is soft and well-designed.

Pedals: Wide and flat with adjustable straps

• Included Pedals: Flat, extra-wide ergonomic pedals are included on the Grand Tour. These feature a strap that holds your foot securely in the pedal. The strap helps facilitate greater hamstring and glute engagement as you ride, so you can pull up at the top of the pedal stroke.
• Can they be swapped: Pedals cannot be swapped out, but you won’t need to. They can be used with any athletic shoe.

Console/Controls

Screen: 7” touchscreen.

• Size: As with other NordicTrack machines, the 7” HD touchscreen is designed to be the central feature on the console. There are preset speed buttons on the right and resistance buttons on the left of the screen. A white stat bar keeps track of your incline, wattage, duration, distance and resistance. You can toggle through screen settings to choose which stats to display.
• Screen Movement: The screen does not move. It is embedded in the console and connected to the handlebar stem.
• Resolution: Resolution is clear. From the main menu icon in the top left corner, you can go to equipment settings and adjust the resolution as needed.
• Touchscreen: Much of the functionality of the bike is embedded in the touchscreen, so you can manipulate various settings with just a finger-touch. The screen is centered between the handlebars, right in your line of vision and within easy reach.

Handlebars: Multiple Grip Positions

• Design: A horizontal grip bar extends in front of the weight tray at the base of the console. From here, two grip bars extend alongside the console so you can lean forward. There is plastic molding at the corners and the ends of the grips.
• Comfort: This is not my favorite handlebar set. Handlebar comfort is one area the Grand Tour could improve. The steel bars are powder coated, and they are good length, but the powder coating isn’t as soft as the spongy-grip found on other spin bikes. I like to ride in a horizontal position with my seat in line with the handlebars and my torso down. I found the plastic molding on the handlebar corners to be hard and the weight tray got in my way on more than one occasion. You can set the weights to the side and throw a soft towel over the handlebars for more padding, but this is kind of a hassle.
• Span between Handlebar Grips: There is a 20” span between handlebar grips.
• Depth of Handlebars: Handlebars are 20” in length. They extend 10” from the horizontal grip bar and then angle up at 120 degrees with another 10” in depth.
• Span from Screen to handlebars: There is 6” from the horizontal grip bar and the bottom of the console. A weight tray with two, 3pound weights rests in between the bar and the console.

Accessories:

• Speakers: The speakers are situated directly under the screen. These are well-positioned so you don’t have to turn the sound up too high.
• Shelf for phone/tablet: There is a shelf under the screen just above the speakers that is wide enough to hold a phone or tablet. The shelf has a little lip on the outside to keep items from falling forward while riding. From this position, any device would slightly block the screen.
• Fans: One fan at the bottom of the console provides good airflow.
• Weights: Two, 3-pound weights are included. These sit in a tray in between the handlebars and the screen. It’s nice the weights are included, but they got in my way a few times while riding. Not every rider is going to use the weights for every ride, so I set my weights to the side during most of my rides.
• Tablet/Phone holder: There is an included tablet holder secured just above the screen. It has an adjustable clip to securely hold any device. This is a nice addition because your device won’t block the screen in this position.

Storage: 2 Water Bottles

• Storage Pockets: Two large water bottle holders attached to the back of the seat carriage and should hold most sized bottles.

+10% Incline to -10% Decline range

• The incline/decline on the Grand Tour is a revolutionary feature that adds significant variability to your training routine. Rather than just ride in a linear plane with variable resistance, you now have to compensate for body angle as the bike moves. This engages and strengthens the powerhouse muscles of the lower body.

• Incline/Decline also enhances calorie burn when combined with resistance because it makes the workout more challenging. You get more metabolic stimulus in a shorter amount of time when incline is combined with resistance.

Resistance Levels

• The Grand Tour has 24 levels of magnetic resistance. This is a significant upgrade because magnetic resistance is consistent, reduces noise, and doesn’t cause any friction or wear on moving parts.
• Resistance can be adjusted on the QuickTouch control, on the bar grip, or on the touchscreen.

Pre-programmed workouts

The Grand Tour Pro features 32 onboard workouts that are not a part of iFit.

• Manual Workout: A white track and stat bar display stats and distance. You can manually adjust the incline and resistance to create your own workout.
• Maps: Select from an array of full-color Google map images anywhere from Lake Como, Italy to the beach in Cambodia. Display options include: Street View; Map View; Satelite; and Rotate (which toggles between views). The images update every few seconds as you ride. The bike will automatically adjust resistance and incline to match the geography of each location. There is no audio included, so these are a great option when you want to listen to your own playlist or podcast.
• Featured Workout of the Day: This is one of the Google map locations featured for that day. The white stat bar can be displayed at the top while you ride, or you can select full screen mode.
• Interval, Strength, Speed, Calorie Burn: Pre-programmed workouts display a graph of the overall routine. The bike will adjust incline and resistance to match your selected workout. These are of varying length and intensity.
• Tour de France images and stage maps: More Google map images for specific stages in the Tour de France.

Subscription Options

• Personal Trainer Led Cycling Classes: These classes are filmed in a studio with a trainer on a bike in front of you and other participants riding alongside. There are a range of different classes with different instructors to take on the bike. The bike will automatically adjust to whatever the trainer is doing. If you begin a hill climb, your bike will automatically incline for you. Resistance is also automated in iFit. You control your speed. Manual controls on the screen or handlebars will override automation at any time should you need to adjust it. iFit will keep track of your stats for you.
• Outdoor Routes all over the world: No other program can compete with the extensive outdoor-filmed iFit classes all over the world. A trainer rides a bike ahead of you while another cyclist rides behind with a camera. You follow along from this perspective so you can see and hear what the trainer is doing. Again, incline and resistance is automated on the bike to match the terrain and grade of the ride. The videography on these rides is impressive. You not only watch from the perspective of the second rider, iFit will also occasionally add a drone shot or overhead view of the city or landscape while you ride.
• Cycling/Weight Combo Classes and Studio-Based Classes off the bike: Other classes such as strength training, yoga, stretching, and meditation can be accessed through iFit and watched on your screen or from any computer or tablet.

Noise Level

• When pedaling: The magnetic resistance on the Grand Tour doesn’t create much noise at all while pedalling or when braking. It is a very quiet piece of equipment. When riding a flat road, the bike only generates a gentle whirr from the flywheel.
• When adjusting incline: This is the only real noise associated with the Grand Tour. There is a motor noise when the bike adjusts incline, but this isn’t constant and it isn’t too loud.

Storage / Folding

The Grand Tour does not fold, but it has wheels on the front stabilizer so you can tip it towards yourself and pull it across the floor. One person can move it easily. Just remember to move your weights before you tip the bike! I made this mistake once and the weights came crashing down, barely missing the screen and my toes. Set weights to the side before moving the bike.

Items of Note

The Grand Tour features innovative technology on a quiet, upright bike. If you like to ride in a horizontal racing position, you might find the handlebars slightly uncomfortable. However, when seated upright they are fine. The lightweight flywheel is not like the inertia-enhanced wheels on commercial spin bikes that gain and hold momentum. It might take some riders time to get used to the feel of the flywheel, but the benefit is, the pedals never get ahead of you and keep spinning after you’ve slowed your cadence.

NordicTrack Grand Tour Bike Full Review

The NordicTrack Grand Tour is a highly enjoyable bike that’s iFit-enabled to let you virtually explore real parks, cities, and villages from the comfort of your home gym. Whatever the weather, you can experience the ups, downs, and interactive views of real-life routes; it’s a great way to stay motivated to keep exercising. This unique bike’s incline and decline settings range from -10 to 10 degrees, and resistance is broken down into 24 increments. Its magnetic drive system has force equivalent to a 16-pound flywheel.

Besides being iFit enabled, the Grand Tour bike provides 32 training programs to support your goals for heart health, calorie burn, incline training, exercise intensity and speed. So if you don’t want to continue paying the iFit subscription after your free 1-year membership that comes with the bike runs out, then you still have a range of workouts at your fingertips which are free for life.

Although the Grand Tour’s MSRP is $1,299, you can now find it for less than $1,000 online.

This includes a free 1-year membership to iFit (which has a $468 value). It also includes a 10-year warranty on the frame, 2 years of coverage on parts and 1 year on labor.

Workout Programs

Workout options with the Grand Tour bike include manual mode, preset workout programs, and an endless variety of routines available through WiFi with an iFit membership.

Preset workout variety includes 32 training programs. The Grand Tour is very user-friendly, and to make program selection easy, NordicTrack groups the choices by workout goal: calorie burn, incline, intensity, heart rate, and speed.

iFit delivers you endless on-demand and live workouts with world-leading personal trainers in studios and locations across the globe, as well as health and wellness guidance from nutrition to sleep time suggestions. iFit will also give you access to: Google Maps workouts (with or without Street View) that match your preferences for distance, elevation, calorie burn; standard bike workouts tailored to your goals; and online bike races built in Google Maps by the iFit user community.

As for stats tracking, iFit makes it easy to wirelessly log in, track your exercise data, and work towards your fitness and wellness goals.

One of the Grand Tour bike’s star features is the frame’s adjustable 10 degrees of incline and decline. Power adjustable, the angle can be easily changed in the middle of a workout.

The integrated 7” HD touchscreen is essentially a built-in tablet computer with apps for workouts and fitness stats tracking. It can display built-in workouts and iFit workouts in full color, including those produced with HD video and Google Maps.

Want to add your favorite entertainment apps to speed up your workout time? The Grand Tour bike has got you covered; just dock your tablet on the integrated tablet holder in front of you to catch up on your favorite shows as you work out, and listen through the Grand Tour’s set of 2” digitally amplified speakers.

The console also has a storage space for two three-pound dumbbells, which are included to make whole-body cross training more convenient.

Finally, to help regulate your temperature this bike has a two-speed fan and two water bottle holders.

Warranty & Guarantee

The NordicTrack Grand Tour warranty package includes:

– Frame: 10 years

– Parts & Electronics: 2 years

– Labor: 1 year

There’s also a 30-day money-back guarantee with all NordicTrack machines if you buy directly from the manufacturer.

The original NordicTrack Grand Tour bike is a good value model for many shoppers seeking a feature-rich cardio trainer under $1,000. The pricier Grand Tour Pro may last longer, but after several years you’ll likely be ready to graduate from this series anyways. 

Overall, the NordicTrack Grand Tour bike is a reliable and popular fitness machine for the average household, providing realistic outdoor biking simulations that aren’t typically available at this price.
