BODYPOWER SP.IC20 Indoor Studio Cycle

Product Information

Since trying and testing the above exercise bikes, we’ve been keen to track down more budget exercise bikes and a couple have caught our attention. This allows you to set yourself up with online spin classes if you need that added motivation, or if you are so inclined you could even just set up your favourite Netflix show – we’d perhaps suggest the former would be more conducive to a solid workout. There’s a huge range of resistance for every type of rider and, as previously mentioned, it can auto adjust.

It features a quick-lock friction pad to easily change the intensity of the ride, and has all the adjustments you need for a comfortable experience. Spin bikes have lower handlebars and geometry similar to a road bike – they are what you would find in an indoor cycling or spin class.

The running joke about an exercise bike used to be that after a couple of weeks of pedalling, it would slowly turn into a very expensive clothes horse because they were always fairly basic machines.

But the user interface isn’t quite as slick as Peloton, and the graphics and sound aren’t as good quality. The newest offering from Echelon is a very accomplished smart bike that’s an absolute dream to ride in terms of its adjustability and ergonomics. Cycling is a bottom heavy exercise, so consider lifting weights while cycling for a full body workout.

The robust and functional design includes a 20kg flywheel, which, combined with the tension controlled resistance and belt drive system provides an incredibly smooth ride. Our range of indoor exercise bikes from the biggest fitness brands is second to none, offering everything you need to take you cardio training up a gear! It doesn’t have a built-in screen, so you’ll need an iPad, tablet, smartphone or smart TV to use the Wattbike Hub or another training app of your choice. We really like the design of the handlebars on the IC8, particularly the tactile tab at the top of each handlebar that makes it much easier to stay stable when you’re riding out of the saddle. You don’t quite get the range of Peloton, which has a bank of thousands to choose from, but as Apex is new to the market, this will improve with time.It’s sleek, stylish, has a compact 4ft by 2ft footprint, comes in four colours and dual sided Shimano pedals. They’re smaller and more compact than a treadmill or rowing machine and offer a lot of bang for your buck. If you can live without a fancy screen and Bluetooth and deal with the lack of stability at high intensity, then it is worth your consideration. This means that the bike is an excellent option for anyone who wants to get pedal fit but has limited room at home. Formerly known as the IC8, this bike has managed to stay at the head of the pack for years now, thanks to its connectivity and compatibility with established and emerging third-party platforms, so you can ride with any number of other cycling apps like Peloton, Zwift or Jrny using your own tablet in the bike’s cradle.
