The equipment includes, i.e., the brake system providing a comfortable workout motion. In combination with the training pc, precise resistance adjustments and diversion while exercising are made possible. Transport wheels, bottle holders, pulse measuring are extras increasing training comfort or effectivity and contributing to a good evaluation.
A sturdy frame construction, high weight, and safe stastand provide stability of the ergometer. A stable ergometer has a higher weight load capacity. Frame and handlebar are less loose for higher training intensities, the ergometer is more durable.
Besides the transmission ratio, the balance unit contributes to the concentric run. It consists of balance mass, pedal bearing, ball bearings, etc.. The better the concentric run, the more joint-gentle becomes the workout.
An ergonomic construction of the rgometer prevents signs of tiredness and physiological bad postures. Details like adjustment of saddle and handlebar, a low entry, pedal sapce, and general construction of the machine provide good ergonomics.

Zeer prettige hometrainer, degelijke materialen en trapt heel erg soepel. Ik heb ook de Life Fitness C1 bekeken maar vindt deze hometrainer meer waar voor mijn geld

Na een lange tijd gesport te hebben in de sportschool, toch besloten om een apparaat naar huis te halen. Gekozen voor de hometrainer vanwege het design en de ruime keuze aan programma's. Makkelijk te verplaatsen door de transportwieltjes

Anonym 20.4.2018 - cardiostrong exercise bike BX50
Na uitgebreid onderzoek voor de deze hometrainer gekozen. De hometrainer maakt weinig geluid tijdens het fietsen. Het display is helder, zodat deze ook in een donkere omgeving te zien is. Het geheel geeft een robuuste indruk.

Anonym 20.4.2018 - cardiostrong exercise bike BX70i
Hiervoor heb ik ook een hometrainer gehad maar die was lang niet zo goed als deze. Ik heb gebruik gemaakt van de gratis montage wat soepel verliep. De installateur wist waar hij het over had en had de hometrainer al snel geïnstalleerd. Dankzij de feedback die je krijgt kun je doelen voor jezelf gaan stellen wat naar mijn mening mensen gemotiveerd houdt! De Hometrainer bevat veel goede functies. Al met al, ik ben erg enthousiast over deze hometrainer.

De hometrainer heb ik zelf gemonteerd, maar het was niet echt ingewikkeld om het zelf te doen! Ben heel blij met dit apparaat en ook blij dat ik niet voor het goedkopere model heb gekozen omdat deze op stroom gaat zijn er 16 verschillende standen voor de belasting en dat werkt erg fijn

Super blij met deze aanschaf en met de installatie. Hij fietst lekker en maakt weinig geluid, dus stoort de huisgenoten niet. Neemt weinig ruimte in beslag, wat erg fijn is voor een kleinbehuisde. Zeker een aanrader!

Purchase advice for exercise bikes: the most important facts about the popular fitness equipment
-
- Train at home with the exercise bike
Why should I buy an exercise bike?
At first, we would like to explain you the advantages of an exercise bike in short, so you can be sure that the exercise bike is the ideal fitness machine for you and not just another category of equipment, as for instance treadmill or elliptical cross trainer.
Exercise bikes offer some advantages for all users, being absolutely independent from age, fitness level or training goal. One of the biggest advantages of a bike trainer is the accessibility: There's no need of exercise to work out with an exercise bike. Those, who can sit down and pedal, can do an effective cardiovascular training with the fitness equipment.
Cardio training with an exercise bike is possible at any time. Just doing a few sessions a week will result in good successes for health or in losing weight - and for the general fitness. The training in the sitting position is very comfortable and mainly more joint-gentle than running. Hence, many healthy training programmes are developed according to the bike trainer.
In contrast to the classic upright bike, the advantage of bike trainers is that the resistance of an exercise bike can be watt-precisely set. It offers the advantage that the own performance is precisely measured and the same resistance can be set again and again.
Purchase advice for an exercise bike: Recumbent bike or exercise bike
At first, it is important to differentiate between two designs of exercise bikes: Recumbent bike and the upright exercise bike. The upright exercise bike is actually like a stationary bike. Saddle, pedals, handles - everything you expect from a real bike is included in an exercise bike.
-
-
Recumbent bikes are
back-gentle exercise bikes
Seat adjustment
Your new exercise bike should be equipped with a height-adjustable seat. The more precise the adjustment, the better! Pleasy pay attention that the height adjustment has a scale so that every user can quickly find its best sitting height. The height adjustment should be as simple as possible, i. e., with a control knob or a lever. For a better seat adjustment, the seat should also be adjustable in horizontal direction - that means in the space between saddle and handlebar.
Saddle
The seat should be big enough so that everyone, who uses the machine, can comfortable sit down on it. The upholstery should be soft and thick so that long training sessions remain comfortable. The most comfort is offered by gel saddles. The saddle of many exercise bikes can also be exchanged. For instance, you can use your bike saddle on the exercise bike or exchange the saddle against another model. That's an interesting feature, when different persons train with the machine or when you want to cycle with a more sporty racing saddle.
-
- Exercise bike with deep step-through
Frame and body with step-through
In the meantime, more and more exercise bikes models offer a deep step-through. Between upright post and seat, the frame is not closed - so you can easily step through. For persons with limited mobility, a deep step-trhough is essential. It is also recommendable for all other users, because getting on and off is much easier.
Training control via pulse
Exercise bikes are great for losing weight. In order to make a weight reduction as successful as possible, the exercise bike should be equipped with the possibility of heart rate monitoring. A heart rate monitoring offers the advantage that you you can set a certain pulse zone. You achieve more effectively some training goals in certain pulse zones. The machine adjusts automatically the resistance so that you always remain in the set pulse zone. For instance, you train at 55 to 65 % of the maximum heart rate in the optimal fat burning zone. The following illustration makes clear which training goals can be best achieved in which pulse zone:
| Very easy | 50 to 60% | Health zone | Supporting health |
|---|---|---|---|
| Easy | 60 to 70% | Fat burning zone | Activation of the fat metabolism, improvement of the basic cardio |
| Moderate | 70 to 80% | Aerobic training / Fitness zone | Improvement of the aerobic fitness, increase in cardio performance |
| Intensive | 80 to 90% | Anaerobic training / Anaerobic zone | Improvement of lactage tolerance, training for maximum increase in performance |
| Maximum | 90 to 100% | Maximum training / competition zone | Improvement of maximum performance and speed |

Resistance setting and training programmes
Training programmes offer diversion and support you in achieving your training goals more effectively. Many programmes are not really required. In principle, all exercise bikes are already equipped with the possibility of Watt control. In addition, we recommend at least one programme for controlling the performance via the heart rate, an interval programme as well as a small selection of pre-set profile programmes. Hence, new stimulations can be set in the training again and again and progress is quicker achieved.

Ergonomics
An ergonomic design prevents signs of fatigue and avoids physiologically false postures.
Details like the adjustability of saddle and handlebar, a deep step-through, the pedal space, and the general design of the machine ensure good ergonomics. Please find an overall evaluation of the ergonomics of all our exercise bikes in the Sport-Tiedje test rating. Furthermore, you can test exercise bikes at all our stores in order to find out which design of an exercise bike is best for you.

The training experience with an exercise bike
The concentric run or the training experience is closely linked to the ergonomics - a comfortable training position. Many small factors ensure a good concentric run, of it the workmanship and the material quality. We cycled with all exercise bikes and evaluated all exercise bikes according to the criterion "concentric run" in our Sport-Tiedje test rating.
Balance mass
We are often asked for balance mass. However, we would like to draw your attention to the fact that the weight of the balance mass of an exercise bike is not a decisive feature. The workmanship of the whole resistance system and its quality are much more important. A big balance mass might be a sign for a good exercise bike, but not necessarily.
Do you have other questions about exercise bikes - we are happy to give advice!
We hope that we help and support you with our purchase advice for exercise bikes to choose your fitness equipment.
If you still have questions, please give us a call on our free service number, write us an email or use our Live-Support chat. When you want to test an exercise bike, we invite you to visit one of our several stores.
Alternatives for exercise bikes
Besides the recumbent bikes, there are two other alternatives for exercise bikes: the indoor cycle and the upright bike. Upright bikes are actually the predecessors of exercise bikes and offer much less functions. The important Watt control is not offered by upright bikes, for instance.
Indoor cycles are rather meant for sportsmen. They are much more similar to a traditional bike, because they are not equipped with any electronics, for instance. The resistance is manuallyl set and can be set much higher.
Good reasons to buy an exercise bike
Finally, we would like to summarise the most important advantages of an exercise bike for you:
- When you go for an exercise bike, you train independently of the weather and the time.
- The relatively small equipment is space-efficient and easy to use.
- The training is easy and motivating.
- The resistance is displayed in Watt.
- Exercise bikes are easily "accessible": everyone, who can pedal, can benefit from the training!
