Much like with any bicycle adjacent concoction this feels like a niche product aimed towards former hardcore cyclist needing physical therapy or former hikers who don't walk so good anymore and I'm not hating it on that front - mental health, motivation and such - can be important.

Other than that I have 0 fucking clue what the point of this is. Website claims it turns 5kph of walking speed into 25kph of cycling speed.

I got to see one live the other day in a bike shop and let me tell you the pictures do not get across either how ridicolous it looks or how fucking huge the damn things is on account of being a treadmill with wheels added to the front and back

It is a contraption.

I appreciate a well executed contraption.
