The PCGamerBike is an exercise bike that can interact with computer games. It uses magnets to produce resistance, and comes with software that automatically logs exercise activity to a computer system.^[1]

The PCGamerBike received an Honoree award at CES 2007 ^[2], and the NewsTips Cherry Picks award ^[3].

There are two versions of the PCGamerBike; the PCGamerBike Mini and the PCGamerBike Recumbent. The PCGamerBike Mini is a compact exercise bike,^[4] and the PCGamerBike Recumbent is a full-sized recumbent exercise bike.^[5]

PCGamerBikes are configurable and as a result can interact with a broad range of PC games. They are typically used to move characters or vehicles, by pedalling.^[6] When used with driving and racing games, character speed is proportional to pedal speed. This is also true for any game that supports FitXF technology.^[7]

The resistance of the PCGamerBike Recumbent can be adjusted by software that supports FitXF technology.
