Pedals with adjustable crank radius for ergometers and exercise bikes. The Vario crank is a length-adjustable pedal crank for bicycle ergometers and home trainers. Patients with reduced flexion in their hip and knee joints can adjust the crank length to determine their personal flexion angle, thus enabling earlier mobilization.

  • Product description

Bicycle ergometers and home trainers are usually equipped with pedal arms that are approx. 170 mm long. Pedaling with these pedal cranks requires certain flexion and extension angles of the knee and hip joints (approx. 110-120° knee flexion). However, if the patient is unable to carry out this range of movement due to an injury, surgery or degenerative joint changes, or if these high flexion angles are not useful from a therapeutic point of view, very useful ergometer training can be made possible with shortened pedal arms and thus reduced flexion angles.

The adjustment mechanism of the Vario crank allows the crank length to be infinitely adjusted from 30 - 170 mm. By reducing the pedaling movement, the required amount of flexion and extension movement is greatly reduced and the joint is significantly relieved of stress. The knee flexion required for pedaling can be reduced to approximately 65°. The Vario crank enables many patients to train with the ergometer.
