Knew SRm has a high end ergometer, but an advert for their smart-bike just hit my email inbox. Don’t recall seeing this one before, but admit I don’t follow the space closely.
Their pricing is not in sync with the rest of the industry. Their product offerings are not innovative. The ‘quality’ of SRM seems to be a vestige of their position in the industry when competitors were few and far between. And design wise? None of it seems to trip my trigger.
I just checked the calendar. It is not April fools, but october 20th. At least the drive train can be maintained by buying available cassettes and chains…
I think you hit the nail on the head here. There was a time when they were clearly the best PM available, and thus could demand the price they asked. Now with so much competition (that works well and is accurate) I can’t think of one reason to get an SRM. Maybe there is one, but for anyone short of a pro it probably isn’t a relevant one
