Monark Exercise Bikes
The Monark exercise bike comes from a Swedish manufacturer that has been in the forefront of designing training and testing ergomedic bikes since the 1960’s.
This brand remains a primary leader in the market with new bike ideas being developed regularly. Falling at the upper end of the price scale, their bikes are regularly used by professional athletes for hardcore training. Their ergomedic bikes are based on research and feedback from universities, rehab facilities, and even NASA.
Monark 894E Ergomedic Bike
Ergomedic technology is what Monark is known for, and they know how to do it very well. The Monark 894E Ergometer exercise bike sells in the $4,000 price range and is an upright style used for professional testing and training. The ergometer weight basket design makes training for serious athletes more effective than ever. NASA and fire departments regularly use this bike for fitness testing.
It powder painted an attractive white with blue accents and has an adjustable seat and handlebar. The front wheel is completely covered and it has wheels attached to make it easy to move as needed. It is also equipped with Windows based software which works with double sensors to make anaerobic testing more accurate than ever.
Monark 828E Ergomedic Bike
This is an improved version of Monark’s 818E model. It keeps the ergomedic features of the original bike, but incorporates a completely covered front wheel, sturdier frame, and the same blue and white design of the 894E model. An electronic meter gives feedback on RPM, heart rate, time, speed, distance. You can also set it to record calories burned and power in watts.
The Monark 828E Ergometer bike has a unique pendulum set-up which makes it possible analyze how even the pull is from each side of the bike. The frame uses tubing which makes it extremely strong and stable during training.
Monark Energy 736 Exercise Bike
The Monark 736 exercise bike sells in the thousand dollar price range and is designed for serious riders looking to train indoors and keep in shape. The seat adjusts forward, backward, and side to side for perfect positioning to every rider. The race style handlebars are also adjustable. To top it off, a well designed braking system allows for very smooth transitioning between resistance settings, but still has the immediate stop option in the case of emergencies.
This sleek designed bike comes in all black and is equipped with a water bottle holder and wheels for easy moving.
Monark 837E Recumbent Exercise Bike
Recumbent bikes are the latest trend in fitness, both for those looking to get in shape or lose weight and for those in rehab working through an injury or health condition. The Monark recumbent bike is a high end bike selling in the upper thousand dollar range and is used largely for rehab training purposes.
It has the company’s well known sleek white design with a striking blue seat and pedals and allows for a completely reclined recumbent position. This position puts no impact on the body while still allowing for a great lower body workout that burns a lot of calories. The distance between the seat and pedals can easily be adjusted and since there is no middle bar, it is very easy to get in and out of the seat without climbing over anything.
This bike is equipped with electronic feedback on heart rate and other stats during workout and has heart rate monitors built into the handlebars.
The Monark exercise bike is not for everyone, but if you have good reason to use a high end bike with intense training technology, then you could not turn to a better manufacturer than this.
