Wattbike Officially Launches Air-Pro, Commercial Bike Trainer

The wait is over: Wattbike’s Air-Pro is available for delivery in the U.K. this month, with a global rollout planned for spring

Indoor bike leader Wattbike has launched the Wattbike Air-Pro as a premium offering for the commercial cycling sector, such as gyms and health clubs, amid an increase in indoor cycling activities.

The latest bike builds on the Wattbike Pro/Trainer and features updated magnetic resistance and internal electronics, as well as a new 7″ performance touchscreen that integrates with the Wattbike Hub app and can connect to third-party apps with ANT+ and Bluetooth. Late last year, Wattbike had introduced the free, multilingual Wattbike Hub app packed with expert-designed training programs for all levels, including those recovering from injuries — a move that also provides wider accessibility. 

Designed for durability, the Air-Pro also offers Wattbike’s signature fan-based air resistance system and braking system and can be placed anywhere in a fitness facility, as it’s powered by its riders.

The Air-Pro is available for delivery in the U.K., and orders are now open exclusively through Wattbike. A global rollout will begin this spring.

“At Wattbike, our mission has always been to create the ultimate training partner for health and performance,” Wattbike CEO Stephen Loftus said. The new Wattbike Air-Pro embodies this, offering a versatile, durable and engaging solution for gyms and elite training facilities alike. With seamless integration to the free Wattbike Hub app and the intuitive Performance Touchscreen, the Air-Pro is designed to be at the core of every fitness assessment and workout, supporting users of all levels to achieve their health and performance goals.”

The company, founded in 2000 by former world champion rower Ian Wilson and developed alongside British Cycling, reports a 35% year-over-year growth in sales and interest in its brand following its launch of home fitness bikes Proton and Air.
