Resistance systemType of brake and how it is adjusted: magnetic via rotary knob (manual), magnetic via console (motorized) or induction for the finest gradation. Manufacturers also call induction ECB, eddy current or electromagnetic brake – even when “magnetic brake” is in the name; the motorized magnet is also called SMR or digital resistance. If the resistance adjusts itself during a workout (auto resistance, auto-follow, control via app), the adjustment is motorized – never “Magnetic, manual”.

Verdict

Pros & cons

Der Domyos EB Seat Connected ist ein halb liegender Heimtrainer mit Rückenlehne und motorischem Magnetwiderstand in 15 Stufen. Er läuft rund und leise und passt Menschen von 1,50 bis 2 m und bis 150 kg. Brustgurt und 5 Jahre Rahmengarantie sind solide Pluspunkte. Der Haken: keine Wattsteuerung, keine Wattanzeige, der Sitz lässt sich nur in der Höhe verstellen, und für harte Intervalle ist das 6-kg-Schwungrad zu leicht.

Pros

  • Bequeme Halbliegeposition mit Rückenlehne und Griffen am Sitz
  • Leiser, runder Lauf durch Riemenantrieb und Magnetbremse
  • Motorischer Widerstand in 15 Stufen per Taste an der Konsole
  • Brustgurt im Lieferumfang für genaue Pulsmessung
  • Freigegeben für 1,50 bis 2 m Körpergröße und bis 150 kg
  • 5 Jahre Rahmengarantie, Ersatzteile 10 Jahre lieferbar

Cons

  • Keine Wattsteuerung und keine Wattanzeige, Belastung hängt von der Trittfrequenz ab
  • 6-kg-Schwungrad wirkt bei hoher Intensität zu leicht
  • Sitz nur in der Höhe verstellbar, keine Längsverstellung
  • In Tests gelegentliche Bluetooth-Abbrüche mit Apps
  • Nicht klappbar, braucht dauerhaft 163 x 68 cm Stellfläche

Der NordicTrack GX LE ist ein schwerer, aufrechter Heimtrainer, der für geführte iFIT-Kurse vom eigenen Tablet gebaut ist. Er passt zu dir, wenn du entspannt sitzen und dich regelmäßig anleiten lassen willst. Der Haken: keine drehzahlunabhängige Wattsteuerung, kein offenes FTMS für Zwift, und die Kurse laufen nur mit einem Abo, das sich automatisch verlängert.

Pros

  • Aufrechte, entspannte Sitzposition schont Handgelenke und unteren Rücken
  • 54,5 kg Eigengewicht für einen ruhigen Stand auch bei kräftigem Treten
  • Geführte iFIT-Kurse von Erholungsfahrt bis intensiver Einheit
  • Abo laut Datenblatt optional, Monatsabo möglich
  • Tablet-Halter für Kursvideos oder Serien beim Training

Cons

  • Keine drehzahlunabhängige Wattsteuerung, daher kein Ergometer für Reha
  • Nur iFit als kompatible App, kein offenes FTMS für Zwift oder Kinomap
  • iFIT-Abo verlängert sich automatisch ohne rechtzeitige Kündigung
  • Kein eingebauter Bildschirm, eigenes Tablet nötig
