For this blog entry we're taking a closer look at the Sprint Fitness range of indoor cycles, currently available at Indoor Cycles.
Before we get too much further, it's worth establishing that an indoor cycle goes by a number of different names: spin bike; spinning bike; indoor bike trainer; group cycle; class bike and the old favourite exercise bike. All of these terms essentially mean the same thing and Sprint Fitness indoor bikes are excellent examples.
We're going to look at three models in the Sprint Fitness range: GB1, GB2 and GB-Pro. Prices start from £299 and each indoor cycle in the range has a good range of features for the price.
Sprint Fitness GB1
The Sprint Fitness GB1 indoor cycle is the entry level in the range. Don't be concerned by the term "entry level" though because this cycle packs a lot of great features for the price of £299:
* Belt drive
* 18kg flywheel (most other bikes at this price have a smaller weighted flywheel)
* Friction resistance and braking
* Console showing distance, time, speed
* Fully adjustable height and reach (handlebars and seat)
* Wheels for moving the bike when not in use
Sprint Fitness GB2
The Sprint Fitness GB2 is a high quality mid range indoor cycle that is built to commercial standards. We particularly like the design of the bike and the number of different positions for holding onto the handlebars:
* Belt Drive
* 20kg flywheel
* Commercial grade indoor cycle
* Friction resistance and braking
* Console showing distance, time, speed
* Multiple position handlebars
* Fully adjustable height and reach (handlebars and seat)
* Wheels for moving the bike when not in use
Sprint Fitness GB-Pro
The Sprint Fitness GB-Pro is our favourite bike in the range. It's a rear wheel bike, which doesn't necessarily suit everyone, but we love the design:
* Belt Drive
* Commercial Grade indoor cycle
* Magnetic braking and resistance (16 levels with lever control)
* Optional console
* Fully adjustable height and reach (handlebars and seat)
* Wheels for moving the bike when not in use
The great thing about the Sprint Fitness indoor cycles is that all of the models offer exceptional value for money and, with service being based in the UK, a good level of aftersales should you need it.
