Key Features

Self-Powered Generator
No cords or batteries required. The IC5 captures rider energy through a compact flywheel-mounted generator that charges the console during your workout.

Magnetic Resistance + 300° Dial
Instantly adjust your ride intensity with the intuitive 300-degree resistance dial, located beneath the handlebar for fast, tactile control even during intervals or sprints.
