if you are one of those who are can’t take the harsh impact of running, and cycling at length is not an alternative due to its associated discomfort, you could get yourself a stationary exercise bike and miss out on the wonderful sceneries awaiting for you out there, or you could get yourself the ElliptiGO. instead of sitting down to pedal, you stand and move your feet like you are walking or running. this walking or running action is translated into an elliptic motion that powers the ElliptiGO.
invented by former Ironman triathletes Bryan Pate and Brent Teal, the ElliptiGO combines the best of both exercises with the bonus of being a trusty transport, but without the punishment to your joints and back. it’s pretty amazing, according to its maker, the ElliptiGO can actually get up to as fast as 20 mph (32 km/h). there are two models of the ElliptiGO available, the 3C and 8C. each differ in some some features, but the major difference lies in the number of gears, 3C has 3 gears/speeds while 8C has 8 gears/speeds. the ElliptiGO bikes are available for purchase with prices starting from $1,799.
