Yet Another Toy I gotta have

 A quick video of RealRyder's newest model the ABF8. This indoor cycle tilts, turns, and leans.  So when is Saris gonna hook this puppy up with a PT and the Computrainer?

  • Interesting, I hadn't heard of that.  Curious what it feels like riding.

    It's hard to say, but it looks like the ratio of lean to steering wheel tilt is fixed.  IOW, you can't lean into a turn and use pressure on the inside of the handlebar to change the radius of the turn.  Not that you're actually turning, but it seems like it might start to burn some funky muscle memory.  Hard to say if there's any benefits that the Rock 'n Roll trainer doesn't have if so, and I've yet to see the Rock 'n Roll trainer get a ton of accolades...
