Corporate gyms, hotels and clinics running back-to-back cardio sessions get a step-through recumbent that carries users up to 180 kg across 15 electronically controlled resistance levels. The C565R is self-powered, so it needs no wall socket and can sit anywhere on the floor plan.
It suits operators who want low-impact seated cardio that holds up to continuous multi-user traffic, backed by SportsArt's Light Commercial warranty: lifetime frame, 5 years parts and 3 years labour. The LED console with Cardio Advisor reads heart rate, METs and human watts, and the adjustable mesh-back seat moves horizontally and vertically to fit members of every size.
The Cardio Advisor readout is the detail I'd flag first: it shows heart rate against Cardio Zone and Weight Loss Zone targets, so unsupervised members can see whether they're training at the intensity they meant to.
With 15 magnetic levels, it isn't built for riders chasing flat-out sprint intervals. The step-through frame and 180 kg user rating are where it earns its keep, giving mixed-ability users easy access.

The C565R pairs a step-through recumbent frame with self-powered operation, so it runs without a wall socket and suits clinics, studios and multi-user floors alike.
It carries a Light Commercial warranty, which matches the continuous-use demands of a staffed facility.
What this means for you: For clinics, strata gyms and hotel fit-outs, this bike settles into high-traffic use without adding to your power or service load.
The C565R sits in SportsArt's ECO-NATURAL™ Essentials line, built around self-powered operation that takes a cardio station off your mains supply.
For operators, that means one less power point to plan around during fit-out.
What this means for you: If you run a sustainability-minded facility or want flexible floor placement, a self-powered cardio station gives you both.
The bike generates its own power from the user's pedalling, so the console and resistance run without a cord to the wall.
A USB-C charging port lets members top up a phone while they ride.
What this means for you: On a busy floor, self-powered placement means you position the bike where members want it, not where the nearest outlet sits.
At 167 x 65 cm, the C565R holds a compact footprint for a recumbent, and self-powered operation removes the cabling constraint from your layout.
It stands 126.8 cm tall, which clears a standard ceiling with room to spare.
What this means for you: For tight studio or clinic floors, the compact footprint and cable-free placement make the C565R easy to slot into a fit-out plan.
The C565R uses a magnetic resistance system, which applies load without physical contact and keeps the mechanism low-maintenance over years of multi-user sessions.
Fewer contact parts means fewer wear items to service on a commercial floor.
What this means for you: For operators, magnetic resistance keeps the service schedule light and the ride consistent across heavy daily use.
Because the magnetic system loads the flywheel without contact, the ride stays smooth and quiet even at higher resistance levels.
Quiet operation matters in shared spaces like serviced apartments, hotel gyms and clinic rooms.
What this means for you: In a quiet clinic or an early-morning hotel gym, a near-silent bike keeps the space calm for everyone nearby.
The console offers 15 electronically controlled resistance levels, so users step through load in precise increments rather than guessing at a dial.
Electronic control also lets the workout programs adjust resistance automatically.
What this means for you: For mixed-ability floors, precise electronic steps let a beginner and a conditioned member both find the right intensity on the same machine.
Seven program types, from Fat Burn to a Fitness Test and Heart Rate control, give staff and members structured sessions without a trainer standing over the bike.
The LED console with Cardio Advisor reads out heart rate, cardio zone and weight-loss zone so intensity stays guided.
What this means for you: In a staffed clinic or a franchise floor, built-in guided programs let members self-direct a safe, structured session.
The step-through frame has no high crossbar, so users walk straight into the seat rather than lifting a leg over the frame.
That design is a practical fit for older users and anyone with limited mobility.
What this means for you: For clinics, aged-care facilities and broad-demographic gyms, the step-through frame helps a wider range of members get on and off safely.
Between the step-through access, the supported recumbent position and a 180 kg user rating, the C565R opens cardio to members who find an upright bike hard work.
That breadth matters when one machine has to serve a mixed membership.
What this means for you: One bike that suits deconditioned, older and larger users widens the value you get from each piece of floor space.
The mesh-back seat adjusts both horizontally and vertically, so staff can set the right leg reach for each user and the mesh keeps the back ventilated through longer sessions.
A ventilated back reduces the sticky feel members notice on solid-back recumbents.
What this means for you: On a shared bike, quick seat adjustment means each member gets a correct fit in seconds between sessions.
The recumbent position supports the lower back and spreads the load, which keeps longer steady-state sessions comfortable rather than fatiguing the back.
That suits the extended, lower-intensity work common in clinic and aged-care settings.
What this means for you: For members doing 30 to 45 minute cardio blocks, a supported back is the difference between finishing comfortably and cutting it short.
The oversized pedals take a wide range of footwear, and the quick-adjust straps let each user secure their feet in a few seconds.
Fast strap adjustment keeps turnover quick on a busy station.
What this means for you: On a high-traffic floor, pedals that fit everyone and adjust fast keep members riding rather than fiddling with setup.
Oversized pedals with straps hold the foot in place through the full pedal stroke, which keeps power delivery steady and the ride controlled.
Stable foot placement matters most for deconditioned and older users building confidence.
What this means for you: For first-time riders, secure feet make the bike feel safe from the first session.

The C565R is a special-order item with a 12 to 14 week lead time from your order date. It ships by freight, and we confirm the delivery window with you so your facilities team can plan the install. If you're fitting out multiple units, talk to us about a staged delivery schedule and bulk freight. Request a quote for installation options.
Take photos before unpacking and send them to support@cardioonline.com.au within 48 hours of delivery. We lodge the freight claim, organise replacement parts or a full unit, and stay across it until you're operational. You don't deal with the courier or the manufacturer directly, that's our job. For fleet orders, we prioritise getting the floor running.
The assembled footprint is 167 cm long, 65 cm wide and 126.8 cm high, so it sits comfortably under any standard ceiling. For a commercial fit-out, allow clearance behind for the step-through entry and around 60 to 90 cm of circulation space each side for member access and cleaning. That spacing keeps throughput smooth on a busy floor.
The max user weight is 180 kg, and the step-through frame with an adjustable mesh-back seat suits a wide range of members, from deconditioned beginners to taller users. Horizontal and vertical seat adjustment means one bike fits many body sizes quickly between sessions. It's built for continuous multi-user cardio in gyms, clinics, hotels and corporate facilities.
SportsArt's Light Commercial terms give you a lifetime frame warranty, 5 years on parts, 5 years on wear items, 3 years labour and 90 days on high wear items (parts only). That rating is matched to shared multi-user environments. Warranty service is handled by an Australian team, which keeps your downtime short if a part ever needs attention.
No. The C565R is self-powered, so the pedalling action runs the LED console with no mains lead or app pairing required. That's a real advantage for a commercial floor: you can position bikes anywhere without being tied to a power point, and there's one less cable to fail. A USB-C port lets members charge a phone while they ride.
The C565R uses wireless heart rate monitoring, and the Cardio Advisor console shows your Cardio Zone and Weight Loss Zone live. For members doing structured zone work, a wireless chest strap gives the most reliable reading to actually train at the right aerobic intensity. The 15 electronically controlled resistance levels make holding a target zone straightforward.
SportsArt doesn't publish an assembly guide for the C565R online, so I won't guess at steps, tools or time. We confirm what's involved when you order, and we can arrange professional installation as part of a fit-out so your bikes are floor-ready. At 71 kg assembled, plan how it gets to its final spot.
