Foot pedals
Through research performed with a leading sports scientist and physical rehabilitation expert,
Spirit engineering has developed a breakthrough in pedal design. Typical stationary exercise
bikes are wider than a normal road bike. The reason is to allow for the braking mechanism,
pulleys, drive components and beauty covers. Since the bike is wider, so is the distance
between the pedals; this width between the pedals is called the Q factor.
Spirit has designed our pedal system so the Q factor is the smallest in the industry, but we did not
stop there. We have also custom designed and tooled a new pedal that provides a two degree
inward tilt to compensate for the Q factor not being perfect. Having a small Q factor in addition to
the two degree inward tilt of the pedals puts the user into a biomechanical neutral alignment. This
means that your feet, ankles, knees and hips are lined up properly ensuring a comfortable
workout.
Transportation
The
bike
is equipped with two transport wheels, which are engaged when rear of XR895 or
XU875 is lifted.
