Handlebars
Over-molded handlebar design offer the user three comfortable riding positions: upright, cruising and road. In the road position, the ergonomic-shaped handlebars position the wrists in a natural, neutral position. The optimum width of the handlebars provides stability and comfort along the entire forearm. The overall width of the handlebars is similar to indoor cycling bikes, which is narrower than most stationary bikes. This places the user in better ergonomic position, with the forearms more directly under the shoulders. In the cruising position, the handlebar is more comfortable on the user’s hands. Touch heart rate is integrated in the upright position.
Seat
Improved, ergonomic saddle design with comfort groove is made from injection-moulded polyurethane with custom density for optimum riding comfort. 27 cm (10.5 inch) width quickly tapers to a narrow nose for improved riding comfort.
Biomechanics
To achieve proper pedaling biomechanics, the seat post angle and seat post offset from the crank are key to efficient pedaling and reduced shear force on the knee. The seat post angle is 74 degrees with a 5-inch (13 cm) offset from the crank axle. This places the forward knee directly over the ball of the foot (or pedal spindle) when the pedals are in a horizontal position.
Bearings
pedal axles and bearings are designed for smooth operation and exceptional service life.
Pedals
Oversized, single-sided pedals with integrated pedal strap comfortably accommodate feet of all sizes, which allows proper pedalling form. The weighted pedals allow for easy placement of the foot on the pedal.
Frame
Two-step powder-coating process applies rust-resistant undercoat and cosmetic topcoat to steel frame.
Seat Adjustment
Familiar pop-pin seat adjustment allows the user to easily change the seat to their desired height.
Covers
Covers are attached with minimal hardware and can be removed without taking off the pedals or cranks.
