Interested in a new ergo_bike.

[Gast ledde]

Hi my name is Henrik I'm 36 years old and I'm from Sweden.

I'm sorry that my German is not the best.

 

I'm interested to buy a new Daum ergo_bike

 

I think the Cardio Pro is enough for me, I'm not a athletic biker so I think 400w is enough for me. Not sure how much 400w is though but I can see it's not often over max 400w in the online training.

 

I'm mostly used to bike a Nishiki Hybrid bike 11-28 48/38/28

I sometimes wish I had a bigger crankset than 48 when I'm on flat ground.

 

One of the nice features I seem to miss on the Cardio Pro is the electronic gear change, but It seems to work by connecting it to a laptop and running a program. But how do I change gears, can I do this on the console on the bike or do I need to press the keyboard on the laptop?

 

The handlebar and the computer console on the Cardio Pro seems to be quite high up compared to the saddle. Is it possible to sit comfortable on this bike?

 

I also want to know what is the best heart rate belt to use with this bike. Do you think the Polar WearLink 31 is going to work well?

 

Thanks,

Henrik

Hi Henrik,

 

I assume that the Cardio Pro behaves like the Vita 3 and thus you can change gears via the knob on the console.

 

Reagrding the heart rate belt - I'm using a very cheap one and it just works.

As far as I know it also works with the Polar ones.

 

Best regards,

Gumbeaux

hi henrik

 

i use the polar wearlink 31 coded on my trs 8008 without any problems.

 

so i don't see a reason why it shouldn't work on a cardio pro.
