When brakes help you ride faster
Stationary bikes don't need brakes.
But they sure would be better if they had brake hoods for your hands.
Now they do.
Sometimes the smallest change makes the biggest difference.
It's really quite simple.
Cyclists spend upwards of 90% of their time riding on the hoods on their bikes so why not offer the same experience indoors?
The HIZE hoods were designed with help from leading experts in bike biomechanics from the shape of a conventional brake hood cover on road bikes to offer a riding position that is more efficient, familiar, and easier on the wrists, neck, and lower back.
Improve your ride posture and your rides will be stronger, faster, and more enjoyable.
The HIZE hoods in action
Bullhorn handlebars on spin bikes contribute to poor riding positions.
Bullhorn handlebars on indoor stationary bikes force your hands and wrists into a position that contributes to locked elbows and tension in your shoulders/neck and lower back.
Efficient posture starts in your hands.
By keeping your hands light on the HIZE hoods, the arms are capable of relaxing with a natural bend and less pressure placed in shoulder/neck and lower back.
A proper hip hinge contributes further to sustained power and a more comfortable riding position.
A new hand position for your rides
It's important to move your hands around on your stationary bike and the HIZE hoods provide an additional location without impeding access to riding in Position 3.
