Why Buy a Precor?

Exercise bikes have been around for decades. They are a proven, time-tested way to improve cardiovascular conditioning. But anyone who's ever used one with a clunky pedal or a rough, noisy resistance system knows the experience can be anything but smooth. That's not the case with a Precor bike.

For the past twenty years, Precor has been creating products that have withstood the most trying environments and the most demanding users. That's because we design and build every product to offer the user a smoother, more flowing exercise experience. Precor cycles have been designed to fit the body and work with the body's natural movements, instead of against them. People working out on Precor products get a heightened sense of moving well.

So what is it about Precor cycles that help users move so well?

Some of the things that make Precor stationary cycles the best in the business are:

• Built to last. Like all Precor products, the cycles are built with quality components and superior construction to promote years of trouble-free use. The three-piece cover allows easy access to internal components for cleaning or maintenance, while the top piece prevents sweat from reaching the interior of the bike. The dual process powder coating that all Precor commercial products receive reduces the likelihood of the frame rusting helping the bike look "like new" much longer.
• Magnetic resistance. While many stationary cycles use alternators to supply resistance, the Precor bike uses a 3-phase generator with a no-contact eddy current brake. The advantage of this generator system is a greater range of resistance, quiet and smooth operation, and increased durability.
• Ease of use. Precor cycles are designed with easy-to-read, navigable consoles that make sense. With the QuickStart™ feature, your users will be exercising with the touch of a button. With Touch Heart Rate monitoring, determining user heart rates is as easy as placing their hands on the handlebars.
• Comfortable, ergonomic design. Precor cycles are designed to fit the individual and provide maximum comfort. The handlebars accommodate a variety of hand positions and feature sweat-resistant foam padding. The wide, custom-designed pedals adjust quickly to fit a range of shoe sizes. The low profile, three-piece crank places the user's feet in the proper position similar to that of a quality road bicycle.
• Pre-programmed courses. The most successful exercise program is the one that users stick with over time and Precor cycles help in that endeavor by offering programs that are challenging and motivating.
• Belt drive system. Precor cycles utilize a double step up drive system. The two poly-V drive belts add to the quiet, smooth ride while reducing service needs.
• Self-powered. All Precor cycles are self-powered so you can place them anywhere on your cardio floor. With the generator system used by Precor, your bike will continue to function even if your battery is dead.
• Upright and recumbent models. The two most popular seating formats are available. Both are designed to be comfortable and supportive.

So those are just a few of the reasons why Precor should be your choice when it comes to stationary cycles. To really experience the difference and to feel the unique motion, it's best to experience Precor in person.
