ElliptiGO 8S - Is the world's first elliptical bicycle. The ElliptiGO 8S delivers a high-performance workout experience that closely mimics running outdoors while eliminating the impact. This is basically the elliptical machine you use at the gym, welded to a bike in a fashion that is theoritcally a comfortable, fun and efficient way to exercise outdoors. The Eliptigo is your solution If you like to run outdoors but find that the pounding on your knees is just too much and for fitness enthusiasts who enjoy the elliptical trainer motion but don't want to be stuck in a gym.
Elliptical bikes enable people to take low-impact weight-bearing exercise outdoors. Studies show that people tend to exercise longer, more intensely, and more consistently when they are able to do so outdoors. As a result, elliptical bikes provide people with a great way to get fit and stay active.
And people will be almost as interested in what you are doing as they were when you were the first person on your block to buy that Segway! (Hmm it sounded like a good idea at the time.)
At least with the Eliptigo you get actual exercise. These are just coming on the market. They are taking pre orders now and will start shipping orders this summer..
