The new entry-level IC1 Group Exercise Bike from Life Fitness is built with solid steel for strength and stability, and finished with a sleek Matte Slate colour. Its parallel frame features a 173mm Q-Factor for a real road bike feel, while full frame shrouds and guards and standard frame stabiliser bars are also incorporated into the design. The IC1 is complete with four levelling feet and two transport wheels to assist with positioning and transportation. The Poly-V Belt Drivetrain transfers torque smoothly, while the 1:3 Drivetrain Gear Ratio offers a front-based, 18kg aluminium flywheel. In addition to that, there is a CrMo 172.5mm crank and friction resistance system. Featuring a wired on-board computer, the intuitive performance measurement effectively demonstrates intensity and effort, while showing cadence, heart rate and calorie expenditure. The power supply for this feature requires batteries. Paired with the toe caged pedals is a multi-positioned soft PVC handlebar, offering vertical adjustments. You’ll also find a unisex padded sport saddle which enables vertical and horizontal adjustments. All adjustments can be made via the dials and levers. To ensure protection of your bike during each workout, the IC1 comprises a sweat guard. Meanwhile for safety, there is a push emergency stop situated in front of the saddle.
