Cyclus2: a Medical Ergometer for Accurate Performance Diagnostics
The Cyclus2 is a benchmark tool for healthcare professionals, researchers and trainers who want to perform advanced metabolic and physiological assessments. Thanks to its quick-release fastening system and patented elastic support, it offers natural lateral movement, ensuring a pedalling feel comparable to that on the road. The chain power transmission ensures reliable measurement, with a load accuracy of 2% and a cadence accuracy of ±1 RPM. This ergometer supports all tests recognised in professional diagnostics, including the determination of ventilatory and lactate thresholds, without the need for additional software.
Versatility and Integrated Assessment Protocols
The Cyclus2 has a wide range of built-in protocols for performance assessment: progressive test with individual settings, 30-second Wingate test with load and duration adjustment, isokinetic maximum strength test, and maximum cadence test to analyse motor skills and coordination. The results are saved, printable in colour and exportable, facilitating communication between the athlete and medical staff. These tests allow for accurate scientific monitoring of the progress and effectiveness of training programmes.
Simulation and Documented Training for Comprehensive Monitoring
In addition to testing, the Cyclus2 offers configurable and reproducible training: warm-ups, intervals, power work, strength work or hill climb profiles. GPS data can be imported to reproduce a real route in the lab, complemented by the VirtualTraining interface, which synchronises the video of the route with the speed and gradient profile. Multi-port connectivity (USB, WLAN, LAN, ANT+, RS232) allows integration with external measurement systems such as ECG or spirometry. This makes the Cyclus2 a central tool in the preparation, monitoring and optimisation of athletic performance in a medical or research setting.
