Light-commercial air/fan exercise bike |
Air or fan bikes offer a much more effective workout than traditional exercise bikes as they have moving handlebars to work the upper body in addition to the cycling action that works the lower body, giving you a total body workout that’s effective yet is still low impact on your joints as with traditional exercise bikes.
Air or fan exercise bikes generally utilize a large flywheel situated at the front of the bike combined with a unique air resistance system that works on the premise that the faster/harder you pedal, the harder the resistance becomes, effectively allowing for unlimited resistance levels.
