Body Bike sets new direction for indoor cycling

Body Bike sets new direction for indoor cycling
July 30, 2024

Set to roll out across Australia and New Zealand, the new Body Bike SMART+ Phantom has the potential to steer indoor cycling into a whole new era.  

With cutting-edge technology able to deliver unparalleled performance and with revolutionary features set to elevate any workout experience to new heights, Body Bike APAC Director, Lee Smith told Australasian Leisure Management “the new Body Bike SMART+ Phantom is the proactive stimulus that the indoor cycling segment needs.

“It’s not only the only bike designed and manufactured in Denmark but is also the only bike on the market in our regions that is made in Europe.

“Body Bike has always had a focus on sustainability with the OceanIX, the Forest Green and now Phantom all being made with recycled materials. What’s more, by 2025, every Body Bike will have its protective covers made with recycled plastic. Every flywheel, crank arm and drive wheel in every Body Bike is made from recycled steel.

“Phantom takes indoor cycling to a whole new level since it embraces all the above and caters for any and every genre of indoor cycling. Traditionally, every brand has natural strengths that make them better for certain genres but the reality for all brands is that there are then programs where they are not as strong.”

Explored in a feature in the latest issue of Australasian Leisure Management, Smith goes onto explain that their cycles have always been fantastic for traditional indoor cycling and perfect for Les Mills RPM, cycling based cycle classes, Les Mills The TRIP, HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) and programs like Les Mills SPRINT and Freestyle HIIT where the demand placed on a bike is extremely high due to the heavy resistances to train strength and then light resistances to Sprint fast for speed.

Great For Gym Owners - Streamlining maintenance and maximising operational efficiency
Gym owners will be particularly interested in the fact that the bikes can be customised to match the theme of a studio with four solid colour options: Smart+ Black, Thunder Gray, Forest Green and Ocean Blue. A dash of colour meanwhile can be added to your studio since the Smart+ Black version has nine top cover colour options to perfectly match your aesthetic preferences and fitness space ambiance.

The custom-made Body Bike Training App meanwhile allows individuals to track and save performance metrics conveniently so that they can monitor progress and set new goals which will prove a real selling and retention point.

Moreover, authorised service personnel can effortlessly register replaced spare parts, with the bike seamlessly logging the date and distance automatically.

Smith notes “this aspect is massively important for gym owners as it not only provides an advanced tracking system but streamlines maintenance and maximises operational efficiency. It sets whole new standards in fitness equipment management and promises to have a massive impact on the bottom line.”
