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 JOROTO X2 ist ein leises Einstiegs-Speedbike mit Abstrichen: Magnetbremse, Riemen und 16 kg Schwungmasse sorgen für einen runden, ruhigen Tritt. Wirklich gut passt er nur, wenn du zwischen 1,75 und 1,88 m groß bist. Der Computer zeigt weder Watt noch Trittfrequenz, und in Erfahrungsberichten tauchen mehrfach quietschende Lager und schiefe Schweißnähte auf. Beim Aufbau solltest du also selbst genau hinsehen.
Pros
- Magnetbremse und Riemen laufen in Tests nahezu geräuschlos
- 16 kg Schwungmasse für einen runden, gleichmäßigen Tritt
- Sattel und Lenker in Höhe und Länge verstellbar
- Aufbau in 15 bis 45 min, Antrieb ab Werk vormontiert
- Sattel und Pedale gegen Standardteile tauschbar
Cons
- Computer ohne Watt, Trittfrequenz und Beleuchtung
- Quietschende Lager und schiefe Schweißnähte mehrfach nach Wochen berichtet
- Widerstandsknopf ohne Skala, 13 bis 16 Umdrehungen bis Maximallast
- Lenker für Menschen um 1,65 m zu weit entfernt
- Nur Körbe mit Riemen, keine SPD-Pedale
Das Sportstech SX175 ist ein leises, ordentlich verarbeitetes Einstiegs-Speedbike für Ausdauer- und Videotraining in der Wohnung. Der Tritt blieb in Tests trotz 4 kg Schwungmasse rund, der Sattel ist breit und bequem. Der Haken: höchstens 250 W bei 80 U/min, keine Watt- und Trittfrequenzanzeige, und Apps können den Widerstand nicht steuern. Wer nach Leistung trainiert, plant besser eine Klasse höher.
Pros
- Leiser Riemenantrieb, laut Hersteller rund 30 dB
- Runder Tritt bis zum Höchstwiderstand im Test
- Breiter, dick gepolsterter Sattel mit 18 cm Breite
- Bluetooth FTMS für Kinomap
- Flaschenhalter, Tablethalterung und Transportrollen ab Werk
- Einfache Bedienung per Drehknopf mit Notstopp
Cons
- Höchstwiderstand nur 180 bis 250 W je nach Trittfrequenz
- Keine Watt- und keine Trittfrequenzanzeige
- Apps können den Widerstand nicht steuern
- Lenker nur in der Höhe verstellbar
- Kundendienst nur per E-Mail und Chat, Antwort nach Tagen
