At a time when people are doubling down in [at-home and indoor workouts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fittransformer), this bike combines the comfort of riding at home with a lean mode that shifts side to side to simulate the feeling of riding on an open road—and [engage the arms and core](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hero-core-trainer) in the process. The bike integrates the JRNY platform, so that users can tune into content on a large touchscreen and access custom coaching, third-party cycling apps and more. As Nautilus describes, "the VeloCore bike represents a totally new way to cycle at home by offering a fully customizable experience. The bike is loaded with advanced technology and digital options to keep users motivated, engaged and entertained."
