The two-stage drive system creates high inertia without a heavy flywheel and offers a remarkably smooth, quiet ride. Combined with an electromagnetic brake capable of delivering 400 watts at 40 RPM and 1,500+ watts at 120 RPM, SB200 is engineered to reproduce the sensation of accelerating, climbing and sprinting on an outdoor bike. Max wattage is up to the rider; however, the system can handle 2500 watts.
Then there’s the concept of natural movement. Rather than locking the bike rigidly to the floor, SB200’s stabilizers use contact points that mirror the front and rear tire contact patches of a real bicycle. The result is controlled chassis movement that allows the bike to move naturally beneath the rider. Interchangeable foot pads let riders tune the feel from more compliant to more stable.
Built around a steel chassis with integrated tablet, phone and head unit mount along with an integrated display, two USB-C charging ports and a place to hide cables, SB200 is designed to perform in the pain cave but live anywhere in your home.
SB200 also brings real-world cycling controls into the virtual environment, with real, integrated shifters, brake levers and 10 independently programmable buttons for navigation, workout control, steering and other functions. Real time data is received and transmitted over lightning fast and robust WiFi and Bluetooth connections, so every watt produced and button command delivered make it to the virtual world of the rider’s choice. Direct, native functionality is available in Zwift, TrainingPeaks Virtual, Rouvy and MyWhoosh.
Key Features:
- An adjustable fit accommodates riders from 4'10" to 6'10", with adjustable crank lengths from 165–175 mm. Standard handlebar, pedal and saddle interfaces make it easy to personalize the bike.
- The SB200 moves naturally under a rider, much like an outdoor bike. Critical feedback from SB20 riders and that platform’s rock solid stability led to a focus on compliance and natural chassis sway with SB200.
- At the heart of this design are two pads that mimic the contact patches of an outdoor bicycle’s front and rear tyres.
- The SB200’s outrigger stabilizers are equipped with replaceable foot pads (soft, installed, and hard shipped) offering two distinct levels of natural movement, giving riders the ability to customize chassis feel. An optional accessory, the RigidRide, ups the stability to the level of the SB20.
- The SB200 offers customizable shifting with presets for Shimano, SRAM, and Stages Dream Drive.
- Riders can also mirror their outdoor drivetrain with custom configurations, including 1x, 2x, and manufacturer-specific setups.
- Dream Drive allows riders to customize the number of gear steps across a ratio range of 0.5:1 to 7.0:1, which is the equivalent of a 70T front chainring and a 10–140T cassette.
- Three standard presets and five customizable profiles allow for multiple bike simulations and rider preferences.
- Real and virtual braking are actuated through the brake levers. Grab the brakes to slow down virtually, and slow the SB200’s spinning flywheel.
