The Grand Tour Pro from NordicTrack is an upright home exercise bike that has the unique ability to decline/incline -10 degrees to +10 degrees. The bike is adjustable to fit a variety of users, comes standard with hand weights for added cross-training, and also includes a 1-month membership to iFit.
We like this home exercise bike because it’s cost is relatively low considering its features and capabilities. The HD touchscreen display, hand weights, and incline/decline features seem to justify the price tag. Altogether, the Grand Tour Pro is a good home exercise bike that’s built well and capable of holding a heavier rider than NordicTrack’s Studio Cycle bike series (S15i and S22i).
Why the Grand Tour Pro is A Top Pick
- The weight capacity for this bike is higher than most – 375 lbs
- Tech is up to date with HD video display and 35+ interactive studio cycle classes (iFit subscription is optional)
- 3 lb dumbbells, HD touchscreen, fans, and speakers are added features included on this bike, outshining most home exercise bikes on the market.

It’s a very impressive home training solution.

Home Delivery and Set-Up
Curbside delivery is free and does require some assembly. The assembly instructions are easy to follow. We usually opt for curbside delivery with home exercise bikes because they aren’t too heavy to move indoors and we have an easy time assembling the bikes. Do plan on having an extra set of hands around while assembling the Grand Tour Pro.
Other delivery and assembly options include in-home delivery for $99 and white glove delivery for $249. In-home delivery is limited to placing the boxes inside your front door. With white glove delivery, you can have the bike delivered to your desired room where the bike will then be assembled by the technician.
Financing
NordicTrack offers third-party financing through VYZE, an online credit lender. Rates and terms are conditional upon credit score. But potentially, you can bring home the Grand Tour Pro with zero $$ down. Financing allows you to pay over 18 months without interest. If the bike is not completely paid off in 18 months, interest from the purchase date will be applied to your loan.
Customer Service
For all questions concerning iFit, you’ll need to speak with iFit’s customer service. Questions or concerns with the physical bike can be directed to NordicTrack. Both companies are easy to contact via their online chat features. You can also speak to a rep over the phone or through email.
Return Policy
The Grand Tour Pro can be returned up to 30 days once you’ve received it. Expect to pay for shipping ($250) and a restocking fee (10%). While NordicTrack will reimburse you for the product, they will not reimburse you for the shipping of the bike. So if you opted for in-home or white glove delivery ($99-$249), these fees will not be reimbursed.
Warranty
- 10-year warranty for bike frame
- 2-year warranty for parts
- 1-year warranty for labor
Extended warranties can also be purchased. For an additional 3 years of coverage, your cost will increase by $179.95. This makes your parts warranty 8 years and your labor warranty for 5 years. A 3-year maintenance service plan is also available. For $339.99, a technician will visit your home once a year to check on the state of your bike.
