🔍 What “Gym / Outdoor Cycle” Means & What to Look For

Here are features & specs to consider when choosing a cycle (gym/outdoor):

Feature	Why it matters
Indoor vs Outdoor	Outdoor cycles need sturdier build, corrosion/water resistance, powder coatings, strong frame. Indoor can be lighter, more delicate, more adjustable.
Resistance type	For indoor bikes: air, magnetic, friction, or fluid. Outdoor static cycles usually have manual friction or simple mechanism.
User weight limit	Important for durability & safety.
Seat & handle adjustability	Good fit → better comfort & less injury risk.
Foot/pedal type	Straps, clips, flat pedals, etc. Pedals need to be strong in outdoor cycles.
Rust/weather protection	Especially for outdoor ones. Powder coating, galvanised steel, etc.
Manufacturer / warranty / service	Spare parts availability, especially in India, is critical.
