An inconvenient truth:<\/span> With every passing day I have less time on earth. This also means I have no interest in wasting precious minutes. That\u2019s why I\u2019m increasingly drawn to the most efficient, effective workouts that require minimal drive-to or setup time.<\/p>\n

Enter the next generation Wattbike Atom. This low-hassle, smart trainer spits out scarily accurate data. It\u2019s well designed enough to make riding indoors almost fun. And with its chunky frame and aerodynamic seat post, it closely resembles a time-trial bike, which my brain equates with going fast.<\/p>\n

Developed in the UK in 2008, the original Wattbike was built for British Cycling\u2019s<\/a> Olympic medal and World Championship\u2013winning teams. They wanted a reliable stationary bike that could more extensively track data like speed, cadence, and pedaling technique, yet still feel like a real bike without the hassle of having to take a wheel off. The vast majority of cyclists who ride indoors use a smart trainer<\/a> they clamp onto their own bike. Either they want to train on their outdoor bike, they don\u2019t have the space to store a stationary bike, or they don\u2019t have the cash to buy a stationary bike, which typically costs thousands of dollars more than a decent smart trainer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The original Wattbike eventually evolved into the Wattbike Atom, which eventually evolved into the next-generation Wattbike Atom, which is used worldwide by elite athletes from USA Cycling to New Zealand\u2019s All Blacks rugby team. But this latest model has only been widely available to the US public since July 2023.<\/p>\n
