Sunny Zephyr SF-B2715 Air Bike | Low Impact Yet, Completely Intense

Categories Exercise Bikes 10 Comments

The Sunny Zephyr SF-B2715 Air Bike has an 18” fan wheel in a steel cage for safety. Air bikes provide wind resistance, which works on the premise that the faster you pedal, the higher the resistance. Thus, effectively allowing for unlimited resistance levels and putting you in total control of your workout.

The Sunny Zephyr Air Bike utilizes a hybrid chain/belt drive system for the best of both worlds – the fan wheel creates resistance through the belt drive system to provide a smooth and quiet workout while the pedals connect to a chain drive for an authentic outdoor bike feel.

The Sunny Zephyr Air Bike’s moving handlebars add an upper body workout to your cycling, helping to tone your arms, back, and shoulders muscles at the same time as your legs. In addition, the Zephyr’s handlebars and saddle are ergonomic for comfort and height-adjustable for different users’ custom fit.

The Sunny Health & Fitness Zephyr SF-B2715 Air Bike comes with an easy-to-use digital fitness monitor that tracks and displays motivating workout data as you exercise, including time, speed, distance, RPM, calories, and scan.
