Professional exercise bikes

Professional exercise bikes structure a complete cardio area, with upright, indoor cycling and recumbent models chosen according to the use and the public. Light In Fitness supports clubs, hotels, corporate facilities and health practices in selecting reliable, comfortable and durable equipment. The three formats are not interchangeable: each answers a different user profile, and most cardio floors need at least two of them.

Which bike for which use

The upright bike reproduces the road position and asks more of the trunk, which suits members training for cycling or wanting a compact, familiar station. The recumbent bike supports the back and suits rehabilitation, older users and anyone who finds the upright position uncomfortable. The indoor cycling bike is built for group classes and high intensity intervals, with a heavy flywheel and a rigid frame.

Installation and maintenance

Plan dedicated socket outlets where consoles require mains power, though many upright and cycling bikes are self powered. Allow space beside each bike for mounting and dismounting, which matters most on recumbent models where the user enters from the side. Maintenance covers cleaning, checking pedal and crank fixings and inspecting the resistance mechanism. Indoor equipment falls under EN 957, published as EN ISO 20957, and warranty runs from 2 to 5 years depending on the range. See also indoor cycling bikes.

Frequently asked questions

Which bike suits a rehabilitation setting?

The recumbent bike, because the back support and the side entry make it accessible to users with limited mobility, and low starting resistance allows controlled progression. Where a therapy team is involved, the console readout they need should be confirmed before ordering. Upright bikes remain useful for patients further along in recovery.

Do exercise bikes need a power supply?

Many commercial upright and cycling bikes are self powered by the user’s pedalling, which simplifies installation. Recumbent bikes and models with large connected consoles usually need mains power. Confirm the requirement per model before the room is wired.
