Advantages to using an Outdoor Stationary Bike
There are no limits caused by traffic, wind and terrain.
You get a more efficient workout because the exercise intensity at all times is controlled by you.
There is a choice between individually tailored exercise programs or digital classes.
'Onboard' entertainment, videos, music, games and news streaming makes the time fly by.
It’s safer, no vehicle has ever collided with a fitness bike.
There’s no need for protective equipment like a helmet or jacket, train as you see fit.
Supplementary equipment on site enables variety and greater all-round fitness.
