Cosmos ergotrainer
1 COSMOS ERGOTRAINER
The Cosmos is the ultimate training machine - a super power trainer for professional cyclists
and amateurs who want to get the most out of their training, scientifically. This high-end ergo
trainer is equipped with the sensational motor brake, which enables extra arduous training.
For example, with a low cadence, you can get more than 1,000 Watts of braking power. You
can adjust the gradient between -5 and +20, which will easily produce a resistance of 350
Watts at a cycling speed of 15-km per hour. With Cosmos, you can adjust your programs
according to power, gradient or heart rate. Naturally, free cycling is always an option.
In particular, heart-rate training is an extremely effective method. You cycle at the heart rate
you set for yourself; while the computer continually adjusts resistance to the rear motorbrake.
You can enter up to 99 users, each with their own personal particulars, in different teams.
Besides serious training sessions, you can also ride in races. You can make them as exciting as
you want. You can enter five opponents. During the race, via the histogram, they are
continually visible on the display. In this way, you can keep track of your position and that of
your opponents.
Fortius software
The Cosmos comes with the Fortius pre-set menus and Analyser software. This allows you to
easily create training programs and set your user data. Via the USB connection you can send
your data to the Cosmos computer so that you can run your training programs on your stand-
alone, wherever you want.
Sensational motorbrake
This high-end ergotrainer is equipped with the sensational motor brake, which enables extra
arduous high torque training. For example with a low cadence you can get more than 1,000
Watts of braking power. You can adjust the gradient between -5 and +20, which will easily
produce a resistance of 350 Watts at a cycling speed of 15-km per hour.
The brake was designed to release heat during cycling, which is then converted to current and
fed back into the mains. In this way you generate your own energy!
