RowedBiker

Row with cycling and running fitness games.

RowedBiker can make your indoor rowing workouts more interesting by connecting your rowing machine to social workout games and fitness applications. It currently supports Concept2 and WaterRower rowers with Bluetooth and USB connections.

RowedBiker works by emulating either a cycling trainer or a smart treadmill. It converts your rowing power into cycling wattage or treadmill speed so you can enjoy the virtual workout worlds and training plans that are available to cyclists and runners.

RowedBiker has a couple of features that make it easier to row with cycling or running apps:

- Cruze and Power Reserve Modes

Cyclists and runners can easily grab a drink or chat with the workout group. For rowers, it can be a challenge to grab that drink or type a message without dropping the handle and losing the peloton or workout group.

To help, RowedBiker has a Cruze mode that temporarily locks your power to a certain level, similar to the cruise control in an auto. Use it whenever you need to stop rowing for a moment. You also have the option to "bank" power before you need it using the Cruze Reserve to maintain workout integrity.

- Erg Mode Support

Workout games offer structured workouts that move between different power levels. Erg mode automatically changes the Cruze set point whenever the workout game requests a new power level. If the game requests a higher level than your current rowing output, Cruze will withdraw from your Cruze Reserve while you ramp up the wattage. If the game drops the requested power level, you'll accumulate reserve power while you are coasting down. There is an option in Settings to disable or adjust how closely Cruze follows erg mode requests.

Thanks for trying RowedBiker!
