Frequently Asked Questions About Exercise Bikes

1. What exercise bikes does Omaha Sports & Games carry?

Browse our full cardio equipment collection or call (888) 884-2234 for guidance.
2. What air bikes do you carry and what makes them different?

We carry three air bikes. The SFE Air Bike Cardio Machine ($799.00, on sale from $999.00) is the entry-level option, the Power Systems Assault Bike Pro ($999.00) is a commercial-grade fan bike used in CrossFit and conditioning programs worldwide, and the Stroops AirBike Fitness Machine ($1,489.95, on sale from $1,799.00) is the premium option. Air bikes use a fan flywheel for unlimited resistance — the harder you pedal and push/pull the handlebars, the more resistance you feel, making them the most intense cardio tool in our lineup.
3. What Garmin Tacx smart indoor bike trainers do you carry?

We carry four Garmin Tacx smart trainer options. The Garmin Tacx FLUX 2 Smart Trainer ($699.99) is a wheel-on smart trainer that mounts your own road or mountain bike. The Tacx NEO 2T ($1,099.99) and the Tacx NEO 3M ($1,799.99) are direct-drive trainers offering more power accuracy. The premium Tacx NEO Bike Plus ($3,999.99) is a complete smart indoor training bicycle — no separate bike required — with road feel simulation and full Zwift/TrainerRoad compatibility.
4. What is the Power Plate REV Vibrating Fitness Bike?

The Power Plate REV™ Vibrating Fitness Bike (from $5,995.00, on sale from $6,500.00) is unlike any other exercise bike — it incorporates Power Plate's whole-body vibration technology directly into the bike platform, activating more muscle fibers per pedal stroke than a standard stationary bike and accelerating recovery, circulation, and neuromuscular adaptation. It's the choice for high-end home gyms, physical therapy clinics, and wellness facilities that want the most advanced stationary bike available. Pair with our Wellness & Recovery collection for a complete recovery ecosystem.
5. What Sunny Health & Fitness exercise bikes do you carry?

Sunny Health & Fitness offers the widest range of accessible stationary and recumbent bikes in our collection. Options include the Tryden Connected Magnetic Cycle Bike ($499.99), the Smart Programmable 16-Level Recumbent Bike (from $499.99), the Elite Smart Recumbent Bike ($549.99), the Evolution Pro Heavy Duty Indoor Cycling Bike (from $699.99), and the Tornado Smart Air Resistance Exercise Bike ($749.99), among others.
6. What are the Pedal Power Generator bikes and who are they for?

Pedal Power Generator makes pedal-powered interactive systems that convert cycling energy into electricity to power games, displays, and STEM demonstrations — making exercise engaging for schools, museums, events, and corporate wellness programs. Options range from the Pedal Vision Gaming System ($5,499.00) and the STEM Educator Package ($4,860.00) to large-scale installations like the Human Power Station with 10 Generator Bikes ($32,999.00).
7. What is the difference between a recumbent bike and an upright stationary bike?

A recumbent bike — like the Sunny Health & Fitness Elite Smart Recumbent Bike ($549.99) — positions the rider in a reclined seat with legs extending forward, reducing stress on the lower back, hips, and joints while still providing effective cardiovascular conditioning. An upright stationary bike places the rider in a more traditional cycling position for a more intense workout. Recumbent bikes are particularly popular for seniors, rehabilitation, and users with back or joint concerns. Both formats are part of our broader cardio equipment lineup.
8. Do you carry outdoor exercise bikes?

Yes — the TriActive USA Exercise Bike (EBIK) Outdoor Fitness Equipment ($2,995.00) is purpose-built for permanent outdoor installation — heavy-gauge steel construction rated for year-round weather exposure with no electricity required. It's part of the full TriActive USA outdoor fitness equipment lineup at Omaha Sports & Games, which covers strength stations, cardio units, and modular multi-person systems for parks, schools, and communities.
9. What is the Asuna Minotaur exercise bike?

The Asuna Minotaur Stationary Exercise Bike ($1,099.99) is a high-weight-capacity belt-drive stationary bike with magnetic resistance — built for heavier users and high-frequency use that lighter consumer bikes aren't designed to handle. The Minotaur's magnetic belt drive provides a smooth, quiet ride and a wide resistance range suitable for both beginners and experienced cyclists looking for a durable long-term home gym investment.
10. How do I choose the right exercise bike for my goals?

For budget-friendly home cycling, the Sunny Health & Fitness Tryden ($499.99) or the SFE Air Bike ($799.00) are great starting points. For serious cycling training with Zwift or TrainerRoad, the Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus ($3,999.99) is the gold standard. For maximum conditioning intensity, the Assault Bike Pro ($999.00) or Stroops AirBike ($1,489.95) are the benchmark. Also explore our treadmills, ellipticals, and rowing machines, or contact our team at (888) 884-2234.

The Complete Guide to Exercise Bikes — Air Bikes, Smart Trainers, Stationary, Recumbent & Interactive Models

Exercise bikes are one of the most versatile pieces of cardio equipment available — low-impact enough for daily use, intense enough for elite athletic conditioning, and compact enough for nearly any home gym or commercial facility. But the category has expanded dramatically beyond the traditional stationary bike. At Omaha Sports & Games, our exercise bike collection spans every format: air bikes, Garmin Tacx smart indoor trainers, whole-body vibration bikes, stationary and recumbent bikes, outdoor models, and pedal-powered interactive systems — from Power Systems, Garmin Tacx, Power Plate, Stroops, SFE, Pedal Power Generator, Sunny Health & Fitness, Asuna, and TriActive USA, all with free shipping and our lowest price guarantee.

Air Bikes — Maximum Intensity Full-Body Cardio

Air bikes are the most demanding cardio tool in our exercise bike lineup. Unlike magnetic or belt-drive stationary bikes with fixed resistance levels, air bikes use a fan flywheel that creates resistance proportional to your effort — the harder you pedal and push/pull the dual-action handlebars, the more air resistance you face. There's no ceiling on the intensity, which is why air bikes have become the standard in CrossFit boxes, military fitness programs, and high-intensity interval training protocols worldwide.

The SFE Air Bike Cardio Machine with Dual Moving Arms and Monitor ($799.00, on sale from $999.00) is the entry point into fan bike training — a full-featured air bike with dual moving arms, a performance monitor, and a robust steel frame at the most accessible price in the category. The Power Systems Assault Bike Pro ($999.00) is the standard-bearer of commercial air bikes — the same unit used in CrossFit competitions and military fitness testing, built to handle daily abuse in commercial environments. The Stroops AirBike Fitness Machine ($1,489.95, on sale from $1,799.00) is the premium option, combining Stroops' performance engineering with a premium air bike platform for facilities and athletes who want the best. Pair any air bike with our rowing machines and climbing machines for an elite conditioning circuit.

Garmin Tacx Smart Indoor Bike Trainers

For cyclists who want to take their outdoor training indoors — or train on platforms like Zwift, TrainerRoad, or Wahoo RGT — Garmin Tacx smart trainers are the gold standard. They connect via ANT+ and Bluetooth to training apps, simulate real-world road gradients, and provide accurate power measurement for structured training. Our Garmin Tacx lineup covers every tier of smart trainer technology.

Wheel-On Smart Trainers

The Garmin Tacx FLUX 2 Smart Indoor Bike Trainer ($699.99) is the entry point into Garmin Tacx smart training. A wheel-on trainer, it clamps to your existing road or mountain bike's rear wheel — no need to remove the tire — and delivers 2,000W of resistance simulation with grade simulation up to 16%. It connects to Zwift, TrainerRoad, and all major training apps via ANT+/Bluetooth for a fully immersive indoor training experience.

Direct-Drive Smart Trainers

Direct-drive trainers remove the rear wheel and mount the bike directly to the trainer's cassette, eliminating wheel slip and providing more accurate power data. The Garmin Tacx NEO 2T Smart Trainer ($1,099.99) comes pre-installed with a SHIMANO/SRAM 9-11 speed body and delivers road feel simulation through its electromagnetic motor — replicating the vibration of cobblestones, gravel, and different road surfaces in real time. The Garmin Tacx NEO 3M Smart Direct-Drive Trainer with 11-Speed Cassette ($1,799.99) is the most advanced direct-drive trainer in our lineup — quieter, more accurate, and with enhanced road feel simulation through its upgraded motor system.

The Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus

The Garmin Tacx NEO Bike Plus Smart Indoor Training Bicycle ($3,999.99) is the premium option — a complete smart indoor training bicycle that requires no separate road bike at all. Fully adjustable geometry, built-in power measurement, side-to-side motion simulation, and full app compatibility make it the most complete indoor cycling solution available anywhere at its price point. It's the right choice for serious cyclists who want a dedicated indoor training setup rather than mounting and dismounting their outdoor bike.

Power Plate REV — Vibration Fitness Bike

The Power Plate REV™ Vibrating Fitness Bike (from $5,995.00, on sale from $6,500.00) occupies a category of its own. Power Plate's signature whole-body vibration technology is integrated directly into the bike's platform — as you pedal, the vibration activates more muscle fibers simultaneously than standard cycling, accelerating caloric burn, improving circulation, and enhancing neuromuscular adaptation. It's used in high-end home gyms, physical therapy clinics, sports performance centers, and wellness facilities that prioritize both performance and recovery outcomes. Pair with our Wellness & Recovery collection — including saunas, cold plunge tubs, and red light therapy — for a complete recovery ecosystem.

Sunny Health & Fitness Stationary & Recumbent Bikes

Sunny Health & Fitness offers the broadest range of accessible stationary and recumbent exercise bikes in our collection — smart connectivity, magnetic resistance, and folding designs across a lineup that starts at $499.00 and covers every use case from casual home cycling to daily dedicated training.

Stationary & Indoor Cycling Bikes

The Tryden Connected Magnetic Cycle Bike ($499.99) is the most accessible connected cycling bike in our collection — a smooth magnetic-resistance belt-drive bike with app connectivity for tracking workouts. The Magnetic Rear Belt Drive Stationary Bike ($599.99) and the Premium Cycling Exercise Bike with Clipless Pedal ($499.99) are traditional upright stationary bikes with belt drive systems for quiet, smooth rides at home. For heavier-duty indoor cycling, the Evolution Pro Heavy Duty Indoor Cycling Bike (from $699.99) and the Indoor Training Cycling Fitness Bike ($569.99) provide commercial-inspired frame construction at accessible home gym prices.

Recumbent & Air Resistance Bikes

For low-impact cycling that minimizes joint stress, the Smart Programmable 16-Level Resistance Recumbent Bike (from $499.99) and the Elite Smart Recumbent Bike ($549.99) offer the reclined seating position that makes cycling accessible to seniors, users in rehabilitation, and anyone with back or knee concerns. For those who want air resistance in a traditional stationary bike format, the Tornado Smart Premium Air Resistance Exercise Bike ($749.99) provides variable air resistance without the full-body handlebars of a dedicated air bike.

Asuna Minotaur & Pedal Power Generator

The Asuna Minotaur Stationary Exercise Bike ($1,099.99) is a high-weight-capacity magnetic belt-drive stationary bike built for users who need a more robust frame and higher weight rating than standard consumer bikes provide — a durable, long-life investment for daily high-frequency home use.

Pedal Power Generator occupies a completely unique niche in our exercise bike lineup — interactive, pedal-powered systems that convert cycling energy into electricity to power games, visual displays, and STEM demonstrations. The lineup ranges from single-unit experiences like the Pedal Vision Gaming System ($5,499.00), the STEM Educator Package ($4,860.00), the Bubble Bike ($2,685.00), and the Plasma Ball Bike ($2,685.00), all the way to large-scale multi-bike installations like the Power Racer Ultimate ($19,299.00) and the Human Power Station with 10 Generator Bikes ($32,999.00) — perfect for schools, science centers, corporate events, and community fitness programs where engagement and education are the goals alongside physical activity.
