Manipulating the gear shift (derailleur)
The gear shift (derailleur) of the
ergo_bike 8008 TRS
is build realistically and is nevertheless
functional. Shifting to a higher gear (a longer distance is traveled per revolution of the pedal,
the resistance is tougher) is obtained by pressing the
Shifting to a lower gear (a shorter distance is traveled per revolution of the pedal, the resistance is
reduced) is obtained by pressing the .
You should try to use the gear shift as directly as possible. The shifting operation occurs thus with a very
short delay. To avoid strong variations of the resistance to pedaling, you should shift
the gears “one by one”.
The shifting process is controlled by a key bloc (see above). The gear shift system is activated by pressing
the SET key of the gear system, and deactivated by pressing the same key at the end of the training.
Shifting of the gears is done linearly
from 1
(smaller gear)
to 28
(higher gear) by pressing the
and the .
Take into consideration that the optimal pedaling speed in “normal” training is about 90 to 110 RPM.
A few situations deviates from this figures, for instance some special forms of endurance training
(very low pedaling speed) or technical training (partially higher speed).
The user manual contains a graphical representation of the circuit profiles to simplify the utilisation of
the programs. These diagrams (power profiles) are also displayed on the graphic display, and the actual training
minute is indicated by a blinking bar which helps in following the progress of the program. This way you can
prepare yourself in advance to the upcoming variation in the profile of the circuit and shift to the optimal gear
at the right moment.

The gear shift (derailleur) is usable on the circuit profiles
of Ironman Roth, Lanzarote, Hawaii and the “Tour de France”
program. Wind and rolling resistance are integrated in
the braking power of the ergometer to simulate real biking
conditions, which provides for a very realistic training.
In climbing situations, the inertia of the user is taken into
account and related to the velocity in order to increase
the resistance continually and gradually.
