Then your looking in the wrong places, I've seen them here in NZ for around the 2 grand mark but that was a higher end device,
It really does depend on what it is you are trying to do. The other thing is you can use a standard bicycle on a cycle erg, So you can get them so you sit the back wheel on the roller and the wheel is locked in to place and use the gearing on the bike to change your resistance levels, And there are some which have resistance on the roller as well. Or you can get the ergs that you take the front wheel off and lock the forks on to a bracket that holds the front in place while again the back wheel sits on a roller and spins as you pedal. But yes if you have an apple watch it can give you HR and time etc measurements But you can also get caidence / speed computers that cost very little but have to be put on the bikes to measue what speed and distances you are cycling. I have my own road bike on a cycle erg that the back wheel locks in to and I use gears for resistance, I have my apple watch to measure some things and a caidance meter to measure speed and RPM from the back wheel, these are fed into an app on my phone which is from a company called wahoo,and that also talks to my HR monitor which is again a wahoo device and gives a better reading than the watch does, it really depends on what you wantto spend or do as to what it costs you. When I cycle I take it pretty seriously, but that's just because it's something I've done for years. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Wednesday, 29 July 2020 3:26 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Exercise bikes And if you are looking for a consumer grade bike which supports Gym Kit, Apple's developer kit or interface for such things then good luck, I did not find one under $10,000 which means it's really designed for professional gyms. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Tuesday, July 28, 2020 8:24 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Exercise bikes We bought a spin bike last fall and decided to get just a basic model without any connectivity because both my wife and I have Apple Watches which we use with the indoor cycle workout to track time, heart rate and calories. Yes, some bikes keep track of a virtual distance, but who really cares if the bike says you biked 6 miles or 10 miles, I am after a good workout and for that my heart rate and calories burned are more important. I don't know how much you want to spend, but you are better off investing in a good quality bike without a fancy controller which may or may not give you what you want, if anything spend that money on an Apple Watch which you can use for any type of workout not just your bike. , -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Laury, Shawnese (LEO) Sent: Monday, July 27, 2020 5:18 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Exercise bikes Hello I am searching for an exercise bike and I was wondering if anyone knows if a model is compatible with the iPhone. I have found several bikes and some of them are Bluetooth capable but I have no idea if they would work. Please let me know.
