What cyclist doesn’t dream of riding on Alpe d’Huez in the Alps or across the Dolomites or the Icelandic Highlands? Now, one can indulge in these fantasies with the indoor Technogym Ride smart bike that features a 22-inch screen, allowing users to immerse themselves in their fitness reveries from the comforts of their homes. Through leaps in technology, the bike has been designed to simulate an outdoor cycling experience while replicating real-world routes and inclines.
Using a single login (which doesn’t require any additional installation or set up), both professional and amateur cyclists can also gain easy access to their favourite training apps and content, including the likes of Zwift, Strava, ROUVY, TrainingPeaks, Kinomap and Bkool, in addition to entertainment apps such as Netflix and Eurosport. The bike also offers a complete range of programmes and experiences that are designed to improve one’s outdoor performance while remaining inside.
Born out of the brand’s own passion for cycling and designed in collaboration with cycling champions over the course of 30 years – beginning with Gianni Bugno’s MG – Technogym team in the 1990s – Technogym’s aim was to bring an unprecedented training experience to professionals and amateurs alike. As a result of this commitment, Technogym has been the official supplier to the Olympic Games since 2000.
And one can see why. The training sessions offered by Technogym Ride challenge cyclists to reach their power zones while offering access to dozens of virtual routes, including the world’s most legendary hills and mountain climbs. Alternatively, for those looking to focus on other fitness alternatives, there is also the choice of the exclusive Technogym Neuromuscular Training programs, designed to improve both metabolic and neuromuscular qualities, in addition to a completely customised training plan based on one’s own personal fitness goals.
With its V-shaped frame, flexible pedal cranks and noise cancelling technology, the Technogym Ride is the ideal choice for home training. @technogym
