TypeErgometer: speed-independent, watt-controlled – the set power stays the same regardless of pedaling cadence; exercise bike: resistance depends on speed

Form factorBasic design according to the manufacturer: upright, semi-recumbent with backrest, or folding X-bike
Upright
Recumbent (chair-style)
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 Heimtrainer EB140 B ist ein leiser Einsteiger-Heimtrainer mit App-Steuerung: Kinomap verstellt die motorische Magnetbremse über Bluetooth FTMS selbst. Für lockere Einheiten bis 110 kg und etwa 1,80 m reicht er gut. Der Haken: Selbst auf Stufe 15 bleibt der Widerstand für Sprints zu schwach, dazu kommen ein harter Sattel und ein Rahmen, der bei schnellem Treten wackelt.
Pros
- Kinomap verstellt den Widerstand per Bluetooth FTMS automatisch
- Leiser Riemenantrieb, in Tests unter 40 dB
- Ersatzteile 10 Jahre lieferbar, Reparaturvideos zu 14 Bauteilen
- Tiefeinstieg und Q-Faktor von 20 cm schonen Knie und Hüfte
- Weitgehend vormontiert, Aufbau allein in rund 45 Minuten
- 7 Konsolenprogramme für Training ohne Tablet
Cons
- Widerstand selbst auf Stufe 15 für Sprints zu schwach
- Harter Sattel, nur in der Höhe verstellbar
- Rahmen wackelt bei hoher Trittfrequenz
- Zählfehler und Verbindungsabbrüche in den Apps
- Handsensoren liefern unzuverlässige Pulswerte
Das JOROTO JH50 ist ein leises, stabiles Liegerad mit manueller Magnetbremse, das laut Hersteller bis 181 kg trägt. Es passt zu Älteren, schweren Menschen und für sanftes Training nach einer Knie-OP. Der Haken: Die Sitzschiene ist ab etwa 1,85 m zu kurz, die 16 Stufen sind unten kaum unterscheidbar, und ohne Wattsteuerung bleibt es ein Heimtrainer ohne Programme.
Pros
- Belastbarkeit bis 181 kg laut Hersteller, mehr als bei vielen Liegerädern
- Riemenantrieb sehr leise, Fernsehen in Zimmerlautstärke möglich
- Rund 40 kg schwerer, stabiler Rahmen mit verstellbaren Füßen
- Bequemer Einstieg ohne Beinschwung, gut für Ältere und Reha
- Widerstand per Drehknopf während der Fahrt einfach verstellbar
- Batteriebetrieb, keine Steckdose nötig
Cons
- Sitzschiene ab etwa 1,85 m Körpergröße mehrfach zu kurz
- Untere Widerstandsstufen kaum unterscheidbar, oben grobe Sprünge
- Keine Wattsteuerung, keine Programme, kein Brustgurt-Empfang
- Kinomap und JOROTO-App zeichnen nur auf, verstellen keinen Widerstand
- Vereinzelt fehlende Teile wie Display oder Kabelstecker bei Lieferung
