WATTBIKE Proton

More: Wattbike

The new Wattbike PROTON is about £600 cheaper than the ageing Wattbike Atom, targetted by the company towards fitness enthusiasts, families and those looking to get time-efficient training at home with compatibility with the leading virtual cycling platforms like Zwift. At £1,795 this product appears competitively priced against similar products like the Wahoo Bike Shift (£2,200) but that’s still a big premium to smaller bike-on turbo trainers which benefit from no need to adjust them and potentially easier storage.

However providing your family members plan to use this a lot and can remember their 3 key ride position settings, it could be a great option for your home gym from a trusted UK brand.
