Which Model to Pick V1?V2?V4?V5?
We generally say V1 or V5 answer needs for rehabilitation and general fitness. Model V1, offers surface resistance. You can adjust the resistance when the bike is outside of the pool. If you need more options in terms of positioning (handlebar, Seat, etc) then you might want to consider Model V5 with its adjustable frame. If the ability to change the resistance when the bike is in the pool, then model V2 is your first option or model V4 for an adjustable frame. V4 being the model V2 with an adjustable frame. The adjustable frame is really handy as you can customize your seating position (bring the handlebar up and down, adjust the height of the seat but also bring the seat forward and backward, adjust the height of the whole frame as well). Another upside of the adjustable frame is that the bikes (models V4 and V5) are much quicker to assemble.
