There are many types of exercise bikes on the market that vary in resistance and design. ZYCLE bikes use the most advanced technology in the industry, with automatic magnetic resistors that offer precise and smooth control at every pedal stroke, connectivity to link to the main cycling simulators and one of the quietest motion transmission systems thanks to the Poly-V belt, among many other features. Now, in ZYCLE we have also incorporated a new bike in the product catalog, the ZBike FREE. This is a freewheel model that will allow you to enjoy a new way of pedaling at home. Don’t know what a freewheel bicycle is? Read on to find out more!
Freewheel: what is it and its main advantages?
What is a freewheel?
A freewheel, also known as a freewheel, is a mechanism used to allow the bicycle axle to rotate freely in one direction and be engaged in the opposite direction. This gives us the ability to stop pedaling without causing the wheel to brake and lock up, as is the case with most modern outdoor bicycles. However, in the case of the freewheel of the ZBike Free we find a more modern and perfected system, since it has been developed to be completely silent, unlike what happens with outdoor bikes. It is a freewheel with a freewheel bearing.
Advantages of the bicycle freewheel
As you know, this system of motion transmission is very different from the fixed gear of bicycles. This means that it has several advantages for those who opt for this mechanism, in particular, energy efficiency -by allowing us to rest while the bike keeps moving-. But also safety and comfort, especially because it prevents the pedals from turning involuntarily when you are not pedaling. However, the most important thing of all is that -as we mentioned- its operation is completely silent, so it surpasses the freewheel of outdoor bicycles that generate noise when you stop pedaling.
What does the ZBike FREE freewheel bike have to offer?
The ZBike FREE is one of the most modern and exclusive indoor cycling bikes you can find in the market thanks to its freewheel system. This, unlike the other models, allows us to stop pedaling without the bike stopping, so that the user can experience the most realistic cycling sensations on a bike intended for indoor use. The ZYCLE ZBike FREE has just been launched to the market and has a lot of advantages for the cyclist thanks to its motion transmission system and the rest of the features it offers, which makes it one of the most advanced models, along with the ZBike 2.0 (fixed gear).
The most realistic cycling sensations on an indoor bike
The main novelty and advantage of this system is the realistic pedaling sensation, just like on any outdoor bike. This addictive mechanism also elevates the rider’s experience with every pedal stroke by combining freedom with performance to enjoy the essence of outdoor cycling without having to leave home.
Automatic magnetic resistance
The resistance is designed to recreate any type of ride easily and realistically, including the sensation of “riding on wheels” without the need for any intervention on your part. It is also equipped with a modern magnetic motor that provides maximum power and immediate response to changes in slope or simulated terrain. The Smart ZBike FREE can replicate slopes of up to 20% incline.
The ZBike FREE’s quiet drivetrain system
Apart from the above, the ZBike FREE indoor cycling bike features an advanced transmission system based on the use of an ultra-quiet Poly-V belt, so you can ride the bike at any time without disturbing your neighbors.
Multi-position crankset to customize the pedaling experience
The ZBike FREE combines a unique design with a V-shaped frame and multiple adjustment options, ensuring a perfect fit for your needs. In addition, it offers outstanding biomechanical fit thanks to its variable position cranks, which allow you to customize your pedaling with sizes between 165mm and 175mm. This ensures optimal performance and superior comfort in every session. Experience a new way to train by adjusting the cranks to any of these lengths: 165 mm, 167.5 mm, 170 mm, 172.5 mm and 175 mm.
Other highlights of the ZBike Free
Apart from all of the above, this model offers super stable connectivity with the main cycling simulators, USB port, a complete app to keep track of the main measurements, maximum accuracy of the estimation of the developed power with a 2% margin of error and much more.
