Differing from other fitness bikes, such as the popular [Peloton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lanebreak-tread), 'Capti' was designed to deliver two bikes in one. As a result, the unit can be transformed from a studio bike with locked handlebars and fixed pedals to a road bike with terrain adaptive resistance and dynamic steering. When in road bike mode, users can expect a riding experience that closely simulates actual outdoor biking. This is thanks to Capti's use of 'Terrain Adaptive Resistance,' a unique technology that causes the bike to interact with the virtual environment users ride through. Moreover, the bike's smart features react to a user's ride 50 times per second, adjusting the ride elements accordingly to produce an [immersive experience](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fitness-game1).
