The shoes smelled fine, but my feet? Not so much. The total opposite in fact to the slippery white plastic of the charging case. The magnetic resistance works very well the bike seems very sturdy and well-built. I guess like they always say you get what you pay for. They must be removed to charge as they do not fit in the charging case. For the numbers people that?s a 33. The screw-in legs are obvious, the X frame screws into the end pieces that have 4 holes, and thats it. My only minor issue is that they dont actually tie. These hooks are very sturdy and well made! 84"So there you go, the AT2035 wins the size competition and its an excellent sounding microphone for a seriously bargain price.
