stationary bike

the ciclotte stationary bicycle would not appear out of place in a museum.

Which is exactly where its aesthetics hail from. Designer Luca Schieppati took his Ciclò — a concept bike that the Milan Design Museum liked enough to include in its permanent collection—and transformed it into an exercise machine. Push the pedals and the epicycloid crank system spins the magnetized main wheel. This in turn generates a magnetic field and plenty of thigh-burning resistance.
