Hi All,

FYI:

OK Team... July’s ITC.

Row 7777m in whatever intervals you want, using 7 mins of rest throughout the session.

For example:
7x 1111m, 1:10r
4444m, 7r, 3333m
5000m, 5r, 2000m, 2r, 777m

Record total time rowed, without rests. Good luck!

Looking at the rower it seems to maybe be converted to a sky erg. Wondering if any body has attempt the project... Not quite sure what you mean, but I'm going to assume you mean stand the rower up vertically against a wall and then use it as you would a SkiErg by pulling down on the handle? Seen a ...

There are dozens of power meters out there on the market, so I think if you're going to compare BE accuracy to a PM then you need to compare to a specific power meter, rather than just say 'power meters' in general. I've used half a dozen different BikeErgs and they all perform exactly the same in t...

Hello, I have just purchased a BikeErg and have completed a couple of workouts (awesome product by the way!). Any thoughts if it might it be possible to add a 10 km distance to the ranked workout list? It seems to be an awfully big gap between 4km and 40km ... A 10km would map well with the 5km row...

If Concept 2 what to do something really useful then please setup ONE Challenge a year that is for verified results only, I have been requesting this for 5 years. The inaugural BikeErg World Sprints (July 3rd-7th) will be for verified results only. They should also do the same for the row and ski v...

I created a CTC BikeErg team about a year ago. You'll see it if you look in the drop down list when you register a new profile on the website. At the time I jokingly floated the idea of its inclusion in the CTC, knowing that it's my strongest piece of equipment and I would get near the top of the bo...

Hi All, I have noticed a clicking noise coming from my Bike Erg within the pedal chamber, happens more when pedals are turned slowly but still happens in normal use but less. Haven't had the bike long, maybe 3 weeks with a fair amount of use in that time 1-2h per day, probably 1h per day on average...

Have BW Rowing announced anything about the May CTC on the Faceborg?
If I don't know by next Wednesday the May CTC will be a straight un-restricted 2K.

Not yet. I'll message them to ask.

IS this the same on the pro whattbike , I got up to 48 mph on a gym bike was just wondering if this is a good speed to get to The only difference between Wattbike Trainer and Pro is the Pro is geared more stiffly. You can't compare mph on one random gym bike to another. You need to look at watts an...

No. It's modest. The top guys are sub 10 seconds for 200m on the Wattbike. I've done around 10.3 myself.

I saw a Martyn Wilson had added a 12.2 to the Concept 2 BikeErg rankings a few days ago. Was this you? Wattbike 200s are far faster than BikeErg 200s. The rankings are for BikeErg only.

I was originally considering Echo Bike for low impact HIIT but am now unsure. I've never ridden an airbike. I use to really enjoy cycling outdoors but I haven't done that in years. I don't consider myself a cyclist; but I still have sweet road and hard-tail MTB bikes that are begging to be taken ou...

You would only need to verify a ranking distance / time anyway, not normal workouts. I think it’s to do with needing to ‘pedal to calibrate’ right before you begin a ranking distance or time if you’re intending on inputting it manually. Sounds as if you can use ErgData to bypass this process (?) alt...

1. I'm transmitting my workouts with ErgData to my LogBook. How can I get my workouts to be 'Verified'? When rowing and using ErgData all my workouts automatically are 'verified'. But with my BikeErg all workouts are logged with 'Verified: No'. When you key in a ranking distance / time it'll ask yo...

Here the link. It’s never been hidden.

Plenty of people create Facebook accounts with very limited personal information just for the purpose of chatting on pages of their interest.

Never heard of this issue mentioned in the Facebook group. I've visited the FB page several times and never see any messages there. Apparently joining the group is required, but I personally don't like FB and don't use it at all. Why not just post on here, or on Slowtwitch where everyone can partic...
