STEPR BIKE ERG

STEPR Cycle XL Bike

The STEPR Cycle XL Bike is an air bike erg that rides like a road bike, seated and forward, with cadence and power doing all the talking. It takes flat shoes and SPD cleats, and the saddle moves on a ratchet when the next rider steps up. Resistance is air, handled by VPR across more than one hundred virtual gears, with no magnets and no motor behind the cranks. The frame is covered for ten years, parts for three and labor for two, and dispatch runs three to six days.

Behind the pedals there are no magnets and no motor. Load comes from air, managed by VPR, across more than one hundred virtual gears.

THE RESISTANCE

How it works

A magnetic trainer holds one curve until somebody moves a lever. On the Cycle XL the rotors change angle by themselves, so the load follows the pedal stroke.

Air Moved By Changing Pitch
VPR works by adjusting the pitch of internal rotors to control air displacement, and VPR is the resistance system behind the pedals here.
VPR
A Gear Count Above One Hundred
STEPR measures the range in virtual gears and puts the count above one hundred.
100+
Flat Shoes Or SPD Cleats
The pedals take flat shoes and SPD cleats, so a household with mixed footwear shares one bike without an argument.
Flat and SPD
The Commercial Warranty Terms
STEPR applies one set of terms across its XL performance units: ten years frame, three years parts, two years labor.

WHY A BIKE ERG

Key features

A bike erg keeps the riding position and takes away the road, so a session repeats the same way every week and the weather stops being part of the plan.

IN DETAIL

How to use it

PEDALS

Pedals For Flat Shoes And Cleats

The Cycle XL takes flat shoes and SPD cleats, which covers the rider who clips in and the one who never will. Saddle height moves on a ratchet, so swapping riders costs a few seconds.

  • Flat and SPD cleats
  • Ratchet seat adjustment
  • Belt drive

RESISTANCE

Climbing Effort And Sprint Effort

The Cycle Erg replicates the feeling of grinding up a steep hill, then lets you explode into a sprint. Underneath that is air resistance under VPR control, with rotor pitch tracking your output as it changes.

  • 100+ virtual gears
  • No magnets, no motors

A Backlit Console You Can Read

Metrics come off an industry standard console, the same backlit unit fitted across the XL range. Backlighting is the part that matters at six in the morning in an unlit room.

FOUR SHAPES

How it compares

STEPR builds this resistance system into four machines, and the Cycle XL is the one you ride. Choose by the movement you actually want to repeat every week.

QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

Through air. VPR adjusts the pitch of internal rotors to control air displacement, which is why there is nothing magnetic or motorised behind the cranks.
Variable Pitch Resistance. The part turning inside is a Variable Pitch Rotor, so both readings sit under the one VPR mark.
There are more than one hundred virtual gears.
Yes. The pedals take flat shoes and SPD cleats.
On a ratchet, which makes it quick to reset between riders.
A belt drive.
An industry standard console with standard metrics, backlit.
Ten years on the frame, three years on parts, two years on labor. STEPR applies those terms across its XL performance units.
Dispatch runs three to six days.
