Easy Accessibility

The walk-through frame makes it easier for users to enter and exit the bike compared with traditional upright exercise bikes. This accessibility can be especially useful in commercial facilities serving users with different fitness backgrounds and mobility preferences.

20 Resistance Levels

The alternator system provides 20 resistance levels, allowing users to adjust workout intensity for warm-ups, steady-state cardio, endurance training, and intervals.

Easy Seat Adjustment

The wraparound adjustment bar provides convenient access to the seat adjustment mechanism. With 12 positions and approximately 12 inches of travel, users can quickly establish an appropriate riding position.

Commercial-Grade Construction

The powder-coated steel frame is designed for frequent use in commercial environments. The 186-lb machine weight also provides a stable platform for repeated cardio training.

Multiple Console Options

Facilities can select from Apex LCD+, LED, or 16-inch touchscreen consoles, allowing the 6RB to be configured around different technology and user-engagement requirements.

Connected Workout Technology

Depending on console configuration, users can take advantage of Bluetooth connectivity, workout tracking, wireless phone charging, and other connected fitness capabilities.

Muscles Worked

Primary Muscles

• Quadriceps – Work to extend the knees and drive the pedals forward.
• Hamstrings – Assist with knee flexion and hip extension throughout the cycling motion.
• Glutes – Contribute to hip extension and lower-body power.
• Calves – Assist with ankle movement and pedal rotation.

Secondary Muscles

• Hip Flexors – Help bring the legs forward during each pedal cycle.
• Core Muscles – Help stabilize the torso during seated cycling.
• Lower Legs and Ankles – Assist with foot control and maintaining a consistent pedal stroke.

The 6RB primarily trains the lower body while providing cardiovascular conditioning through continuous cycling.

Benefits

Recumbent cycling provides effective cardiovascular exercise while reducing the repetitive impact associated with running and other high-impact activities.

Build Lower-Body Endurance

Regular cycling challenges the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and calves while helping develop muscular endurance.

Improve Cardiovascular Fitness

The 20 resistance levels allow users to create workouts ranging from light cardio to progressively challenging endurance and interval sessions.

Comfortable Seated Position

The ergonomic recumbent design provides back and lower-body support, making the 6RB well suited for longer cardio sessions.

Easy Access

The walk-through design makes entering and exiting the machine easier, helping accommodate a broad range of users.

Adjustable Workout Intensity

Users can quickly modify resistance to match their fitness level, workout duration, and training objectives.

Support Interval Training

The range of resistance levels allows the 6RB to be incorporated into interval workouts by alternating periods of lower and higher resistance.

Heart-Rate Monitoring

Contact and telemetric heart-rate compatibility provides users with options for monitoring cardiovascular intensity.

Connected Fitness

Compatible console configurations provide modern connectivity features such as Bluetooth, workout tracking, and wireless device charging.
