While it might develop better muscle memory to use a standard trainer and something like the Wahoo standup/cycling desk, not every employer is keen on a complete rework of your gopher hole cubicle. For those needing a more stealthy way to spin the legs at work (or sitting on the couch binge watching Netflix), there’s Cycli.
Already past their Kickstarter funding goal, Cycli is a small, Internet- and socially connected portable stationary cycle. Sync it with their smartphone app via Bluetooth and you can share your rides with friends or even compete in real time…
The unit’s magnetic resistance keeps it quiet, and its metal structure should keep it solidly planted while you ride intervals or suffer through high cadence sessions. It uses a rechargeable battery, making it fully portable, and also works while the charger is plugged in. Check them out on Kickstarter here and nab one for $99, a full $100 off planned retail price.
