With gyms and cycling studios temporarily closed, sales of indoor exercise bikes have been booming as people embrace at-home workouts. Hendrick’s Gin decided to create an alternative to the most popular models, stating that its creation is a "delightfully intricate stationary pedaling device that offers a leisurely, pleasant alternative to the home workout devices on the market today."
Unlike the sleek workout bikes that are designed to help people work up a sweat, the Hendrick’s High Wheel is a handcrafted creation that's made from iron and inspired by the classic penny-farthing bicycle. The unusual at-home bike includes a liter-sized water bottle holder, an adjustable seat, a small bell and a light bulb, plus a workout manual that depicts Scottish landscape scenes.
