Welcome to the world of the X-dream
Six years ago I managed the turnaround of a subsidiary of a FTSE 100 company and
oversaw the trade sale. I left that position 3 stone heavier and decided to buy an
exercise bike to lose some of my excess pounds. What I found out there was
disappointing to say the least so, I decided I would make my own bike in the garden
shed. A bike that would accurately simulate riding outdoors and also a bike that
would deliver me the results I needed. The X-Bike was born.
I found, like millions of people, that motivation was the missing link with most
exercise regimes. Instructors and personal trainers are the life blood of the modern
gym but this model is unsustainable and the standards too hit and miss. Equipment
development has got to use today’s technology to deliver fun, motivation and results
The video game industry continues to lead the way in fun, interaction and motivation.
Today there is much more choice available and thus the demands and expectations
are higher. We aim to continually exceed those expectations.
We believe the X-dream is the first fitness product to successfully integrate accurate
real-life simulation, total body cardiovascular conditioning and a motivational
personalised training program. The UCI the world governing body of cycling believes
we have created a new indoor sport.

Quick Start
Just push the green button and off you go. Take a ride in parkland, in the
highlands, in the semi-arid or desert locations. A great way to introduce
yourself to the world of the X-dream and to get familiar with its controls.
It’s just like the real thing.
X-dream fitness mode (expert personal training programme)
The X-dream allows the member to enter a stunning virtual world with 5
other riders. Create your own rider logon based on your own body,
complexion and your taste in clothing. Now select your bike based on your
preference for handling characteristics, how much data feedback you want
on your screen, and you’re ready to start your own personalised workout
schedule. The programme generates riders to pace your ride. As you
improve so do the computer riders.
In order to open up the 20 unique trail rides you need to win the previous
race. Each ride becomes slightly more difficult and the race duration
increases. Motivation and reward.
Group Ride mode (Multiplayer)
Now that you have got the hang of this bike it’s time to ride with some friends
and start pushing each other further. Up to 6 X-dreams can be linked together
for multiplayer races. Be prepared for your inner competitiveness to start
surfacing. Choose the correct bike to get the edge for the trail ahead!
Total-Body Workout
Interval Based Workouts
Each trail has been designed and professionally
structured to provide a total body interval based
workout session. AI riders provide intelligent pace
setting for each member based on the individual’s
unique level of fitness and performance.
