Falk P8-HM
Resistance systemBraking principle according to the manufacturer: magnetic (contactless, quiet), friction (felt or leather brake on the flywheel) or electromagnetic with motorized adjustment. Manufacturers also call the electromagnetic brake ECB or eddy current brake. If a motor adjusts the resistance – it adapts itself during a workout (auto resistance, auto-follow, control via app) –, this counts as “Electromagnetic (motorized)”, even if the manufacturer only speaks of a magnetic brake; “Magnetic brake” means adjustment via knob or lever.

Verdict
Pros & cons
Der DMASUN 8711 ist ein einfaches Einstiegsrad für gelegentliches Training mit Magnetbremse, 15 kg Schwungmasse und leisem Lauf bei mittlerem Widerstand. Wir halten es für brauchbar, wenn du bis etwa 1,83 m groß bist und keine App-Steuerung brauchst. Der Haken: Stachelpedale lösen sich mehrfach, der Lenker klemmt, und Bluetooth gibt es nur in bestimmten Ausführungen.
Pros
- Leiser Lauf bei geringem bis mittlerem Widerstand dank Magnetbremse und Riemen
- 15 kg Schwungmasse für runden Tritt bei lockerem Tempo
- Schneller Aufbau in rund 45 min, zu 70 % vormontiert
- Batteriebetrieb, keine Steckdose am Standort nötig
- 3 Jahre Garantie laut Datenblatt, Service liefert zügig Ersatzteile
- Sattel in Höhe und Länge verstellbar
Cons
- Stachelpedale lösen sich mehrfach während der Fahrt, teils mit Rost
- Lenker nur in der Höhe verstellbar und klemmt häufig in der Führung
- Ab etwa 1,83 m stehen Sattel und Lenker am oberen Anschlag
- Harter Seriensattel, schon nach 10 bis 15 min unbequem
- Keine Wattanzeige, Kalorien pauschal je Kurbelumdrehung gezählt
Das Skandika Falk P8-HM ist ein einfaches Einstiegsrad mit Magnetbremse, die ohne Reibbelag auskommt und sich stufenlos regeln lässt. Es passt zu dir, wenn du ruhig im Sitzen fährst und nach Gefühl trainierst. Der Haken: 8 kg Schwungmasse, 26 kg Rahmen – für Sprints im Stehen ist das zu leicht, und Watt und Trittfrequenz fehlen im Display.
Pros
- Magnetbremse ohne Reibbelag, kein Verschleiß wie bei Filzbremsen
- Widerstand stufenlos per Drehknauf, schneller Wechsel bei Intervallen
- Schmaler Q-Faktor von 17 cm für natürliche Fußstellung
- Sattel horizontal stufenlos um 6 cm verschiebbar
- Batteriebetrieb, Stellplatz ohne Steckdose wählbar
- Kinomap per Bluetooth nutzbar, Tablethalterung integriert
Cons
- Nur 8 kg Schwungmasse, Tritt läuft weniger satt nach
- Mit 26 kg zu leicht für ruhigen Stand im Wiegetritt
- Keine Watt- und Trittfrequenzanzeige, keine Stufenanzeige am Knauf
- Lenker nur in vier Stufen in der Höhe verstellbar
- Kein interaktives Training, Kinomap verstellt den Widerstand nicht
