X-Bike by Trixter no ordinary exercise bike
The X-Bike by Trixter is the only indoor cycle that allows the rider to functionally engage the upper body and core musculature while the legs do the pedaling. The exercise offers a total-body workout while bringing the natural movements of outdoor cycling indoors.
What makes this exercise bike unique is the patented handlebar mechanism that the rider pumps from side to side against adjustable resistance while the legs are pedaling. The X-Bike has been around for a while and has a variety of star athletes, from Formula One racing to BMX biking, using their products.
