The Most Innovative
Indoor Cycles Available.
Companies that are willing to push the limits of design and innovation are hard to come by these days; few are willing to spend the time and effort to address the needs of the market when it means throwing out the rule book altogether... Fortunately, there are those of us that will never be satisfied with the status quo; we see a problem, a need, and a solution. Even when the solution means developing whole new approaches, features, and technology that have never been used before, we tackle the challenge and come up with something great. This is who we are. We founded Relay Fitness Group. We created the Evo Fitness Bike. Welcome to Fitness Unchained.
deconstructing ordinary...
RFG was founded by a group of engineers and fitness professionals that have a combined 30 years of experience in product development for the fitness industry. Why is product development experience important? It’s important because it means that the Evo Fitness Bike was built from the ground up through innovations that addressed current short falls and seized the opportunity to improve indoor cycles. While most indoor cycles were created by outdoor cyclists trying to mimic their road bikes, the Evo Fitness Bike meets the needs of all end users, even those that are not avid road bikers. Every feature of the Evo Fitness Bike is easy to use for any rider and avoids the common headaches posed by traditional indoor cycles. When you observe and test each feature of the bike, remember that countless hours went into its development; there is a specific purpose and reason why each feature is the way it is. Reinventing an Old Favorite Everybody has heard of indoor cycling and most fitness enthusiasts have tried it. It has been around for decades and the indoor cycle itself, or some variation of it, is a staple in almost every gym in the world. Reinventing something so rudimentary has been a challenge, but RFG has managed to do it with both technology and training methodology.

sway
The Revolutionary
Core Active Sway frame™
The Evo Fitness Bike’s Core Active Sway Frame™ feature allows a 10 degree sway to either side. This motion has been engineered to enhance your workout by engaging your core and upper body as you pedal. No Gimmick, Just Good Fitness The Core Active Sway Frame™ isn’t trying to simulate turning a bike; for that, you need the g-forces that can only be generated with momentum. Rather, the Evo Fitness Bike simulates the natural motion of pedaling and balancing on a road bike, as well as the upper body motion needed for standing sprints.
More than Cardio Indoor cycling can do more than increase your conditioning levels and help you lose unwanted pounds, it can be a complete workout solution that leads to a healthy lifestyle. The Evo Fitness Bike’s sway frame allows you to ride with a full body movement, similar to riding outside. This natural motion incorporates your core and upper body while also requiring more balance than a typical indoor cycle.
What are the Benefits of Bike Sway and the Evo Fitness Bike? Toned arms, shoulders, and abdominal muscles l More rapid fat loss through full body movements l Faster, more effective workouts l Enhanced functional strength l Better balance and coordination l

beltless/chainless simplicity
orb™ planetary gear drive
The Orb™ internal flywheel and brake system ensures a safe, low maintenance ride in a sleek new look that adds a touch of high-class elegance to your gym. Low Maintenance As any indoor cycling studio can attest to, indoor cycle maintenance can be a time-consuming, messy, and expensive issue. The Orb™ has no exposed pieces that could be subjected to corrosion and there’s no need to worry about broken or loose belts or chains because there are none!
You Don’t Have to be On the Road to Feel the Road Unlike most indoor cycles that rely on belts and chains to drive a flywheel, the Orb™’s intermeshing planetary gear system creates a realistic feel and vibration that mimics riding a bike on concrete. This has led many cyclists to claim that the Evo Fitness Bike has the most realistic feel. Combined with the natural swaying motion facilitated by the Core Active Sway Frame™ feature, riding an Evo Fitness Bike is both fun and realistic.
How do Planetary Gearsets Work? The Evo Fitness Bike utilizes a planetary gearset to give you greatly reduced maintenance and a real road feel in a compact package, but what is a planetary gearset anyway? Planetary gearsets utilize three main components: sun gear, planet gears, and a ring gear. The orientation of the components gives you the gear ratio you’re looking for (7:1 in the case of the Evo Fitness Bike) and allows for an industry leading inertia comparable to a 55 pound flywheel.

No Belt, No Chain, No Problem.
In indoor cycling studios, unused bikes mean less riders, and less riders mean less money. Thanks to the beltless/chainless Orb™ Gear Drive, instructors and gym owners can rest assured that all of their bikes will be in full operation for each class. No need to worry about sweat, dust, and grime getting into the drive system because the Orb™ is fully enclosed. In fact, there is no need to adjust belts, fix broken chains, or make any adjustments whatsoever.

infinitefit™ & Other features
Each Evo Fitness Bike comes with a standard, specially designed set of handlebars that allow for the five most commonly used hand positions. The high-quality handlebar column enables vertical adjustments of up to 15 inches and a fore/aft adjustment of 7 inches, allowing for a comfortable ride for users of any height. Any Hand Position, Any Training Type The InfiniteFit™ Handlebars were specifically designed to give you the five most common hand positions for cycling. Even better, the adjustments to both the handlebars and seat allow for a variety of riding positions. People who are new to fitness can benefit from a higher handlebar position allowing them to sit upright, taking the pressure off their lower backs. Experienced riders will enjoy a more aggressive stance; both positions are possible with the Evo Fitness Bike!
Designed to be seen The Evo Fitness Bike is not meant to be hidden in a closet; the elegant cantilever frame design, unique color options and components, as well as the high tech feel of the Evo begs to be put center stage. Since the working components are completely enclosed (no belts, chains, or external flywheel) you don’t need to worry about dust and sweat causing corrosion and maintenance issues. Improve the looks of your home, gym, or commercial setting with the Evo Fitness Bike.
