Comfort and Biomechanics
The bike's design closely emulates the biomechanics of a road bike, ensuring comfort through:
Seating Position: Optimized for ergonomic support.
Handlebar Angles and Rake: Adjusted to maintain natural wrist and arm alignment.
Pedal Positioning: Designed to provide an effective and comfortable pedaling motion.
These meticulous details ensure that users not only enjoy a comfortable ride but also benefit from enhanced workout results, thanks to proper ergonomic positioning.
Innovation Beauty Motivates
Users often find it challenging to engage with their at-home exercise equipment. Whether it's a lack of motivation or simply having the gear stowed out of sight, Iris excels in fostering inspiring interactions. As a beautiful, interactive piece, the Iris bike innovates by captivating users' attention and building the motivation to engage in a workout session.
One Touch
After researching bikes, both at the gym and for home use, a common issue emerges: excessive complexity and clutter. Iris addresses this with an onboard virtual assistant that requires just one touch to activate. Users can then verbally instruct the bike on their desired riding experience, simplifying interaction and enhancing user engagement.
Environment
Iris incorporates a dynamic lighting system in its front wheel that not only helps convey the sensation of speed during a ride but also serves as an ambient lighting feature when the bike is idle. This dual functionality not only enhances the user experience but also integrates the equipment into the home environment more seamlessly.
