Features
Your new CS 8.0 Bike console, the CS 8.0 console, is the most
sophisticated exercise computer in the fitness industry. Even the
simplest operation, Manual Control, works in a special and
useful way. But the CS.80 console is also extremely easy to use; the
user can ignore all the fancy stuff and use it with just one or two
keystrokes.
Smart Start: Intelligently picks useful workout settings — every
workout, even an advanced one, is easy to set up.
Always-available Workout Setup: Switch to this at any time in
any workout. Adjust your current workout settings, or set up a
whole new workout.
Calorie Goal: Tell the bike how many calories you want to burn
and how long you want to work out, and the bike figures out what
workloads you need to maintain — including warmup and cool
down.
Constant Heart Rate Control: The bike takes you to your target
heart rate within five to eight minutes, then keeps you there.
Interval Heart Rate Control: Pick both a work target HR and a
rest target HR, and the bike will take you back and forth between
those two targets.
Fitness Test: An enhanced version of the YMCA protocol to
estimate maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max).
Bicycle Simulation: An accurate simulation of a 21-gear road
bike, including precise pedal cadence-to-speed response and body
weight compensation.
