What if your bikes aren't Bluetooth?

Start with any Bluetooth (BLE FTMS) bike — that's the simplest setup and works with the fleet most studios already own. If some bikes aren't Bluetooth, here are the routes we'd usually suggest, in order:

  1. HR-based rides — add an inexpensive RPM sensor and a Bluetooth heart-rate monitor, and the class runs on HR-based zones. This is the quickest, lowest-cost way to get an older or mixed fleet riding.

  2. CicloZone Power Crank — for full power data on non-smart bikes, the Power Crank replaces the pedal crank and transmits cadence and power over Bluetooth. It's an option we're happy to discuss for studios that want the full power-based experience — email hello@ciclozone.com.

What about Technogym?

Technogym uses a closed ecosystem, so its bikes aren't currently supported. If you have Technogym bikes, you can use an RPM sensor + Bluetooth heart-rate monitor for HR-based riding, or BLE FTMS bikes alongside them — email hello@ciclozone.com to discuss your fleet.

How to pair

  1. Make sure the bike is powered on (pedal briefly if it has a battery / generator).

  2. Turn on Bluetooth on your phone and grant permission to the CicloZone app.

  3. The app shows a list of available bikes, sorted by proximity.

  4. Tap the bike whose number is shown on its phone tray.
