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 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
Das Skandika Kliva 800-S ist ein sportliches Indoor Bike, dessen Motor den ganzen Rahmen von -10,5 bis +9,6 % neigt. Mit Kinomap folgen Neigung und Magnetbremse automatisch der Strecke, das macht virtuelle Anstiege körperlich spürbar. Nach 30 Gratistagen brauchst du dafür ein Abo. Aus unserer Sicht hat es klare Haken: keine feste Wattvorgabe und ein breiter Q-Faktor von 20,5 cm.
Pros
- Motor neigt den ganzen Rahmen in 16 Stufen von -10,5 bis +9,6 %
- Kinomap steuert Widerstand und Neigung automatisch per Bluetooth
- Berührungslose Magnetbremse mit 32 elektrisch verstellten Stufen
- Tasten am Rennlenker für Widerstand und Neigung, auch im Wiegetritt
- Schwungrad hinten außerhalb der Schweißzone
- Laut Hersteller belastbar bis 150 kg
Cons
- Keine feste Wattvorgabe, die Leistung hängt an der Trittfrequenz
- Breiter Q-Faktor von 20,5 cm erzwingt eine breitbeinige Haltung
- Nur Pedalkörbe mit Riemen, kein Klicksystem
- Lenker nur in der Höhe verstellbar, Reichweite allein über den Sattel
- Volle Kinomap-Steuerung nach 30 Tagen nur mit Abo
