# CicloZone: Indoor Cycling Redefined > CicloZone is an intelligent indoor cycling ecosystem that connects riders, instructors and studios through structured, power-based training. It combines Adaptive FTP technology, the proprietary COL% performance metric, live and virtual class delivery, and seamless Bluetooth connectivity — with no dedicated test days, no bike replacement required, and no complex setup. CicloZone supplies the CicloHub display device and Power Crank to studios, but does not manufacture bikes or sensors. ## About CicloZone CicloZone is a UK-based indoor cycling platform serving three audiences: cycle studios (B2B), fitness instructors, and individual riders (B2C). The platform delivers structured class profiles graded by intensity, duration and language, with real-time performance data driven by each rider's personal FTP. CicloZone is primarily a software platform. It integrates with existing Bluetooth-enabled indoor cycling equipment from leading brands and does not manufacture bikes or sensors. However, CicloZone does supply two hardware accessories directly to studios: - **CicloHub**: A pre-configured Android TV box supplied free to studios that require a display device. Studios may alternatively use their own compliant Android TV hardware. - **CicloZone Power Crank**: An optional Bluetooth power and cadence crank that can be fitted to non-smart bikes, enabling any existing studio bike to become fully connected without replacement. Sold in bulk via direct sales. **Headquarters:** Lombard House, Cross Keys, WS13 6DN, United Kingdom **Website:** https://www.ciclozone.com **Apps:** Available on iOS and Android **Studio platform:** https://studios.ciclozone.com --- ## Core Technology & Differentiators ### Adaptive FTP CicloZone Adaptive FTP determines a rider's Functional Threshold Power (FTP) during a normal structured class — analysing performance across multiple power zones, RPM ranges, and both seated and standing efforts. No separate FTP test session is required. At the end of the session, riders receive an FTP recommendation and choose whether to apply it. This is a fundamental departure from traditional FTP testing, which requires a dedicated, single-cadence, maximum-effort test day. ### COL% — CicloZone Output Level COL% is CicloZone's proprietary performance metric. It measures execution quality relative to rider FTP and class targets, combining zone intensity, RPM within the zone, riding position (seated or standing), and interval duration. COL% creates meaningful, fair performance comparisons across riders of all abilities. Warm-up and cool-down intervals do not generate COL. Underperformance is penalised; overperformance is rewarded. ### ERG Mode CicloZone supports ERG mode on compatible bikes — automatically adjusting resistance to match each rider's personalised power zone target during a class. ERG mode is optional, rider-controlled, and available across live, virtual and free ride sessions. ### Class Formats CicloZone supports four class types: - **Live**: Instructor teaches in person using CicloZone structured profiles - **Virtual**: Pre-recorded instructor classes available 24/7 - **Live-to-Virtual**: Studio's own instructors recorded teaching CicloZone classes - **Free Style**: Instructor controls all elements in real time — zones, RPM, backgrounds and music ### No Hardware Cost CicloZone requires no hardware purchase. Studios use existing connectable bikes and an Android TV box (or the free CicloHub device). Non-connectable bikes can be upgraded via the CicloZone Power Crank. --- ## Product Architecture ### CicloZone App (iOS / Android) Used by riders and instructors on personal devices. Supports Studio Ride (free), Free Ride (free), CicloTV (subscription), and Home Ride (subscription). Provides real-time dials showing power zone, HR zone, cadence, COL graph, interval profile and class progress. - iOS: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/ciclozone/id1538024694 - Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ciclozone&hl=en_GB ### CicloZone Studio (B2B Platform) Consists of: - **Ciclo Studio App (Android TV)**: Powers studio screens, displays class visuals and leaderboards - **Web Control Panel**: https://studios.ciclozone.com — used by studio owners and instructors for scheduling, team management, class building, billing and configuration ### CicloZone Power Crank Optional Bluetooth (BLE) power and cadence crank for non-smart bikes.
