Precor has announced that it is to launch a new Spinner Rally bike – the first such product to emerge from its partnership with indoor cycling giant Spinning.

Having secured an exclusive worldwide agreement in September last year with Mad Dogg Athletics – creator of the Spinning indoor cycling program – to assume all commercial production for a new line of Spinner indoor cycling equipment, Precor will launch the Spinner Rally bike in March.

The bike is the first in a series of three bikes – to also include the Spinner Ride and Spinner Shift bikes - to be introduced to the indoor cycling market to enable operators to meet growing demand for indoor cycling with reliable, experience-driven design and comprehensive programming.

The Spinner Rally will debut at a series of events in Europe and the USA, including the IHRSA Convention, next month.

The new bikes are being backed by a new range of education resources, which, when combined, aim to reinvent the indoor cycling experience for operators and exercisers.

Adam Hubbard, Director of Product Management at Precor, explained “when we looked at the offerings on the market, we saw a number of ways we could combine our engineering expertise with Mad Dogg Athletics’ knowledge of indoor cycling bikes, programming and education to create a market-leading line of products that would benefit operators.

“Through our collaboration, we’ve created a line of bikes that has a distinctive look, durable construction and intuitive adjustments and, by leveraging Spinning® programming and education, has the ability to help gym operators grow their business.”

The all-new Spinner® line of bikes features a range of benefits for operators, including:

Built to Last Craftsmanship – Spinner® bikes manufactured by Precor are offered in powder-coated steel or aluminium frames that are designed to resist corrosion and sweat, helping to reduce long term operations costs. Reliability is improved with stainless steel fasteners, aluminium adjustments, innovative threadless pedals and bottom bracket spindle connection.

Community Insights – With Spinner® bikes by Precor, Spinning® Instructors can join the original worldwide indoor cycling community and give their facilities the credibility to attract and retain indoor cycling enthusiasts.

Smooth Outdoor Feel – Every Spinner® bike model uses a 43-pound perimeter weighted flywheel, and real road bike geometry to give each bike a signature feel that more closely matches the fluidity of outdoor cycling.

Mad Dogg Athletics Chief Executive John Baudhuin added “our collaboration with Precor was not limited to improving the indoor bikes themselves, but also the overall Spinning® experience.

“To support this new line of indoor bikes, we have also greatly enhanced the Spinning® programs and education experience to give operators the support and tools they need to attract new members, create secondary revenue streams and differentiate their facility with Spinning® classes, teacher trainings, and more.”
