"New For the First Time: A Combination Bicycle and Home Exerciser"
01
Artifact Overview
Bicycles provide health benefits to regular riders, but not everyone wants to bike in wet weather or through wintertime snow and ice. Chicago Cycle Supply Company manufactured a "Cyclexerciser" that turned any bicycle into a stationary exercise bike. The device, which mounted a conventional bicycle on ball-bearing rollers, was based on a patent by professional cyclist Roy Mobeck.
