Designed for high-intensity use at commercial gyms, the Precor 842R recumbent exercise cycle offers a fluid motion and wide range of resistance levels to deliver a superior workout experience for beginners and experts alike. The low-maintenance 842R cycle features 6 programs, a double step-up drive with Poly-V belt for a smooth, quiet cycling experience, and a magnetic, no-contact generator system that provides consistent resistance and reduces the roughness, maintenance, and wear associated with mechanical alternators.

Full back support and a properly angled contoured seat provide maximum comfort.

Larger platform pedals accommodate a wide range of users.

The 842R is compatible with heart rate telemetry reading using optional wireless chest strap transmitters.

Features:

• Direct access to 6 programs: Six buttons are the gateway to 6 preset programs, including one fitness test. You can select or change to a new program at any time during their workout.
• Belt-drive system: A double step-up drive gives you a smooth, quiet exercise experience. A Poly-V belt is used instead of a chain for less maintenance and a quiet ride.
• 3-piece crank: The 3-piece crank tightens positively, reducing the need for periodic adjustments. The 9/16-inch crank arm accepts any standard road or mountain bike pedal.

• 3-phase generator/eddy current resistance system requires no backup battery in order to power the bike.
• Belt drive for smoother, quieter operation and reduced maintenance.
