Wattbike introduces Air-Pro – the latest evolution of the world's best indoor bike

Innovation is at the core of what we do

Wattbike has launched the Wattbike Air-Pro, marking a pivotal step in the evolution of commercial indoor bikes. Building on the iconic Wattbike Pro/Trainer, the Air-Pro incorporates upgraded magnetic resistance, advanced internal electronics and a new Performance Touchscreen.

Crafted for maximum durability and performance, the Air-Pro thrives in the most demanding training environments. It’s an ideal workout solution for an array of clients, ranging from fitness enthusiasts and elite athletes to those seeking low-resistance rehabilitation or off-feet conditioning sessions.

The Air-Pro utilises Wattbike’s renowned fan-based air and magnetic braking system, which provides instantaneous resistance. This makes it ideal for HIIT training, explosive power sessions, circuits, and other short, intense workouts. Additionally, it offers safe and predictable resistance for rehabilitation and fitness benchmarking.

One of the standout features of the Air-Pro is the new Performance Touchscreen. This 7-inch, fully backlit color tablet provides a user-friendly and engaging interface that integrates seamlessly with the Wattbike Hub app.

This connection unlocks a variety of workouts and training plans to help users achieve their fitness goals. Furthermore, the Performance Touchscreen is compatible with third-party apps via ANT+ and Bluetooth.

By utilising the free Wattbike Hub app, users can benchmark their health and fitness while participating in built-in workouts designed in collaboration with renowned coaches, world champions, and top-tier gyms.

Stephen Loftus, company CEO, says: “At Wattbike, innovation is at the core of what we do.

“The Air-Pro builds on the trusted elements our customers love, enhancing them with cutting-edge technology, an intuitive interface and new programming options. We’re proud to launch a product that raises the bar for indoor bikes, without any compromises.”

Available in the UK for delivery as of February 2025, orders are now open exclusively through Wattbike. A full global rollout will commence in the spring enabling everyone to access the evolution of indoor training.
