The Wattbike has been developed with British Cycling's coaches and scientists to:
- Replicate the sensation of 'real' cycling
- Be the world's first factory calibrated indoor bike
- Deliver accurate and consistent performance feedback
- Provide technique feedback on force and power delivery.
Design
In creating the Wattbike a number of guiding principles have led its construction. The Wattbike is designed to:
- Withstand very heavy use for extended periods of time, for an extended lifetime. Industrial grade construction and components are standard
- Accommodate all shapes and sizes of user. Whether large or small the strength of the bike and the range of adjustability make it possible for everyone to exercise safely and adjust themselves into an efficient cycling position
- Deliver at all exercise intensities. As relevant to a cardiac rehabilitation patient who pedals slowly at 30 Watts as an Olympic sprint cyclist who peaks at over 2000 Watts
- Perform accurately, and maintain that degree of accuracy throughout its lifetime
- Be compact and stylish. An indoor bike that suits a gym environment and one which the user would be happy to have in their home.
What our customers say
Rohan Dennis Team Jayco Skins/World Champion 4000 Team Pursuit 2010The Wattbike has been a key factor for my preparation leading into the 2010 Copenhagen World Championships. With the easy setup for our individual racing positions, it has helped me become part of the fastest Australian team pursuit team ever and the 2010 World Team Pursuit Champions. The Wattbike gives a very natural feel and is the closest thing to actually riding your bike on the road or track. There are many features to help you control your efforts, like an easy to read display monitor showing power, cadence, heart rate and average power - as well as the ability to check how balanced your pedalling is when you are putting the power down through the pedal stroke. The Wattbike is a bike for everybody. It can be used by someone just trying to get fit, right through to the competitive cyclist trying to find the edge.
