Wattbike Proton smart bike review

Wattbike Proton smart bike is reasonably priced, durable and widely adjustable, making it a great option for families and house shares.

It is stripped of the Peloton -style "fun" features, such as instructor-led classes and an engaging user interface, and it can be quite noisy, too.

The Proton is one of the most adjustable exercise bikes we have tested.

It can be used alongside fitness trackers, heart rate monitors and other health devices.

Wattbike Proton has a step-through design, meaning you don't have to swing your leg over the top to get on the saddle.

The saddle was quite thin, but surprisingly well-cushioned and comfortable to ride.

The control buttons are located on the handlebars, right under the fingers, and at least in theory should not be too difficult to find and press at the right time.

There are plenty of workout-tracking features available on the Wattbike Hub app, from basic metrics such as cadence and distance to advanced performance indicators.

The Wattbike Proton is a good choice for multi-person households thanks to its wide adjustability and sturdy, reliable design.

It lacks some of the "fun" features that help boost engagement and motivation.
