Exercise equipment brand Echelon has unveiled the EX-8s Connect Bike, a high-tech, at-home exercise bike equipped with a 24-inch touchscreen monitor. The company's new fitness bike was designed to specifically enhance interactions between users and their workouts by creating a gym-like environment.
The highlight feature of the EX-8s Connect Bike is its cutting-edge touchscreen -- the first curved display ever to be mounted on an exercise bike. Not only does the massive screen work to create an immersive workout experience, but it also rotates 180 degrees, allowing users to take advantage of Echelon's extensive catalog of off-bike classes.
Aesthetically, the bike boasts a strikingly futuristic design thanks to its unique, LED-heavy 'Flywheel' construction. The dual-wheel design lights up in various colors in accordance with a rider's workout metrics, heart rates, and overall performance output. As a result, the EX-8s Connect Bike presents an uncanny resemblance to the classic Light Cycle from TRON.
