25-inch fan, commercial grade, ~99 lbs. $700-800. Most widely used assault bike in CrossFit/commercial fitness โ€” reference bike for programming. Correct for serious daily training. Loud at high effort.

The Assault AirBike Classic is the reference assault bike for CrossFit and commercial gyms โ€” most published interval programming was developed and timed on this exact machine. The 25-inch steel fan, sealed cartridge bearings, and foam-covered moving handles are commercial-grade and built for daily heavy use. The display covers the essentials (calories, time, RPM, distance) without the over-engineered software that bloats home cardio equipment. For home gym athletes it is arguably over-built, but that same over-engineering is why it stays standing after a decade of abuse. Loud at high RPM, which is the honest tradeoff.

Pros

  • 25-inch steel fan with sealed cartridge bearings
  • Reference machine for most published CrossFit interval programming
  • Commercial-grade frame rated for daily heavy use
  • Foam-covered moving handles for full-body engagement

Cons

  • Loud fan noise at high RPM
  • Over-built for casual home gym training
