Greg LeMond, three-time Tour de France Champion, is the force behind the inspiration and design of
this remarkable indoor bike. Greg’s story is one of courage and heroic accomplishment. In 1986, Greg
became the first American to win the longest and most physically demanding event in the world — the
Tour de France. Only nine months later in April of 1987, he narrowly escaped death when he was ac-
cidentally shot in a hunting accident. During a long and painful rehabilitation, he set a goal that many
considered inconceivable: to once again win the Tour de France. In 1989, he achieved that goal and then
proved it was no mere stroke of luck by winning the Tour a third time in 1990.
A legendary athlete, Greg introduced many cycling innovations during his racing career. Just as aero
bars are now commonplace, the HOIST® LeMond® Series RC will be the new standard in indoor fitness
bikes. The HOIST® LeMond® Series RC combines Greg’s passion for cycling with exceptional product
innovation. Built to deliver an incredible workout, every component of the HOIST® LeMond® Series RC
has been designed to be more innovative, user friendly and comfortable than any other indoor bike you
have ridden. Whether you are a beginning fitness enthusiast or a highly conditioned athlete, you will
immediately feel the difference.
Attractive and cordless, you can position the HOIST® LeMond® Series RC anywhere in your facility
for maximum enjoyment. Starting with how quiet a HOIST® LeMond® Series RC workout is, you will
quickly discover that the HOIST® LeMond® Series RC gives you a better cycling experience than any
other indoor exercise bike.
