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

Das Domyos Training Bike 900 ist ein solides Indoor Bike für App-Training: Die motorische Magnetbremse lässt sich über offenes Bluetooth FTMS von Kinomap, Zwift, Rouvy und FulGaz steuern, und der Tritt läuft dank 13 kg Schwungrad und Riemen rund und leise. Der Haken: Das Netzkabel löst sich gelegentlich, der Lenker wandert nur in der Höhe. Für regelmäßiges Training mit App halten wir es für eine stimmige Wahl.

Pros

  • Motorische Magnetbremse mit 32 Stufen, von Apps automatisch verstellbar
  • Offenes Bluetooth FTMS für Zwift, Kinomap, Rouvy und FulGaz
  • Runder Tritt dank 13 kg Schwungrad und Riemenantrieb
  • Steht mit 48,5 kg Eigengewicht auch im Wiegetritt ruhig
  • Leise mit 48 bis 49 dB in 1,5 m Abstand
  • Kombipedale mit SPD-Aufnahme und Korb

Cons

  • Magnetisches Netzkabel löst sich bei kräftigem Treten, Rad schaltet ab
  • Lenker nur in der Höhe verstellbar, nicht in der Länge
  • Keine eingebauten Trainingsprogramme, ohne App nur freies Fahren nach Stufe
  • Keine Handpulssensoren, Brustgurt nicht im Lieferumfang
  • Griffe fallen auf langen Fahrten hart aus

Das Sportstech sBike ist ein ruhiges, leises Indoor Bike mit 68 kg Eigengewicht, genauer Wattanzeige und drehbarem 21,5-Zoll-Touchscreen. Wir halten es für eine starke Wahl, wenn du gern deutschsprachige Kurse fährst und dafür ein Abo zahlst. Der Haken liegt in der Software: Kurse und Auto-Widerstand nur mit Abo, und Zwift oder Kinomap nur per Spiegelung vom Smartphone.

Pros

  • Steht mit 68 kg auch im Wiegetritt ruhig
  • Wattanzeige in Tests nur 2 bis 5 % unter Messpedalen
  • Leiser Riemenantrieb, laut Hersteller rund 50 dB
  • Drehbarer 21,5-Zoll-Touchscreen auch für Yoga und Krafttraining
  • Automatischer Widerstand in Kursen mit deutschsprachigen Trainern
  • Berührungslose Magnetbremse ohne Filzverschleiß

Cons

  • Kurse und automatischer Widerstand nur mit kostenpflichtigem Abo
  • Zwift und Kinomap nur per Bildschirmspiegelung vom Smartphone
  • Eingebaute Lautsprecher gegen Kursmusik zu leise
  • Sattel bei Einheiten über 45 Minuten recht hart
  • Mehrfach Probleme mit App-Login und Bluetooth, WLAN ohne WPA3
