1) 20% Incline & Decline
The Proform Tour De France bike has interactive digital 20% incline and decline controls that let your bike follow the road. So if your trail angles down, the bike angles down. If your trails climbs a hill, the bike inclines up. This lends a very realistic feel to your training routine.
2) Intelligent Wind Resistance
Another feature that gives you a realistic feel to your workout is the Intelligent Wind Resistance. Basically it calculates your height and weight to apply the natural resistance you would get out on the road.
3) iFit LIVE
This is an incredible new technology that uses the wireless internet in your home to connect your bike to the Internet. It then uses Googlemap to allow you to map out any trail you want in the world (you can also choose from any of the 24 pre-mapped courses as well). The bike then uses Googleterrain with Googlemaps to give you both the terrain feel (with incline and decline), landmarks, mapped routes and more.
4) Recommended By the Pros
It's no surprise that this Proform spinning bike is popular - especially with serious trainers and pros. For example, Lewis Elliot, Former US National Team Cyclist says:
" 'The "Tour De France Trainer' is incredible because it has a very realistic road feel. In over 20 years of riding trainers, I've never ridden anything even close. My favorite features are the Google Maps iPhone application, and that the bike actually rotates up or down based on uphills and downhills. The 'Tour De France Trainer' is by far the closest stationary bicycle to the road I've ever experienced! Five stars!"
Weaknesses:
This isn't really a weakness however this bike may not be the best choice for the average exerciser who just wants an indoor bike to use once or twice a week. It's really more for serious cyclists.
Conclusion: Highly Recommended
If you're looking for the cream of the crop indoor cycling bike, the Proform Tour De France bike is definitely worth considering. It's built to give you the most realistic "outdoor training" feel of any bike on the market.
From the Googlemaps and iFit LIVE mapping out your route to the intelligent wind resistance to the incline and decline features, it's a great way to stay in 'peak' training condition all year round.
