BE DIFFERENT.
Thats how you stand out in a crowded market. Not following the instructor-led or studio-driven workout format. Capti is a self-directed, game-inspired, and community-driven smart bike that delivers two bikes in one. The bike morphs from a road bike with dynamic steering, shifting and terrain adaptive resistance to a studio bike with locked handlebars and fixed pedals. That’s our patent-pending Smart Ride™ technology. We’ve mirrored what it’s like to ride a bike outside with an incredibly immersive gaming experience.
