How does BODY BIKE Connect and Performance calculate distance?

Calculating the distance covered on a stationary bike might seem unusual, but it provides a rough estimate of how far you would have traveled if you were cycling outdoors.

On the BODY BIKE Performance console, the distance is based on your cadence, meaning the faster you pedal, the more distance you cover. On the BODY BIKE Connect console, however, the distance is proportional to your watt output. This means that with the BODY BIKE Performance console, you’re rewarded for speed, while with the BODY BIKE Connect console, you’re rewarded for the overall effort, which includes both cadence and resistance.
