Cykling P12-H
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 NordicTrack Studio Bike 24 ist ein sehr leises Smart Bike mit drehbarem 24-Zoll-Touchscreen, auf dem Kurse und Google-Maps-Routen den Widerstand automatisch einstellen. Wir halten es für eine gute Wahl, wenn du iFIT dauerhaft nutzen willst. Der Haken: Ohne Abo bleibt wenig übrig, den Widerstand regelst du nur am Display, und Schluss ist bei 114 kg.
Pros
- Sehr leiser, runder Lauf durch Magnetbremse und Riemenantrieb
- 24-Zoll-Touchscreen dreh- und kippbar, auch für Training neben dem Rad
- Widerstand folgt automatisch iFIT-Kursen und Google-Maps-Höhenprofilen
- Stabil im Wiegetritt dank rund 63 kg Gerätegewicht
- Kombi-Pedale für SPD-Radschuhe und Sportschuhe, Cleats liegen bei
- Ein Abo deckt bis zu fünf Profile ab
Cons
- Ohne iFIT-Abo nur manueller Modus mit Distanz und Geschwindigkeit
- Laut Hersteller nur bis 114 kg Körpergewicht
- Widerstand nur per Touchscreen, kein Drehknopf, keine Lenkertasten
- Lenker nur in der Höhe verstellbar, gibt beim Sprint leicht nach
- Display spiegelt deutlich bei Licht von vorn oder der Seite
Das Skandika Cykling P12-H ist ein leises Einsteiger-Bike für die Wohnung: Die elektromagnetische Bremse arbeitet berührungslos, die 32 Stufen stellst du über einen Drehknopf am Lenker ein. Eine Wattanzeige fehlt, und der Lenker lässt sich nur in der Höhe verstellen. Der Haken: mehrfach defekt gelieferte Geräte, deshalb prüfst du das Bike direkt beim Auspacken.
Pros
- Elektromagnetische Bremse läuft in allen drei Tests leise genug für die Wohnung
- 32 fein abgestufte Widerstandsstufen für Grundlagentraining und Intervalle
- Bedienung über einen Drehknopf, auch ohne Erfahrung verständlich
- Riemenantrieb ohne Öl und Kettengeräusche
- Sattel in Höhe und Länge verstellbar, in Tests passend von 160 bis 190 cm
Cons
- Mehrere Tests nennen defekt gelieferte Geräte und langsamen Kundendienst
- Keine Watt-, Puls- oder Trittfrequenzanzeige
- Lenker nur in der Höhe verstellbar und nicht drehbar
- Breiter Q-Faktor von 21,6 cm sorgt für breitbeinige Haltung
- Mit 32 kg Eigengewicht wenig Reserve für harte Sprints im Stehen
