Tunturi exercise bike accessories

Why choose original Tunturi exercise bike accessories?

Tunturi is a Finnish brand that has existed since 1922 and in 1969 built the world's first exercise bike with an ergometer. The brand has been making bikes for the home for generations, which is why many different Tunturi series can be found in living rooms, from the Pure and GO series to the E series. Those series do not all use the same heart rate signal, and that is the main reason to choose an original accessory.

A chest strap transmits your heart rate on a specific frequency, and the receiver in your exercise bike listens for exactly that frequency. If you choose a strap on the wrong frequency, simply no heart rate appears on your console. By choosing a Tunturi strap made for your series, you can be sure that your exercise bike picks up the signal and that heart rate controlled programmes work as intended.

The Tunturi range of exercise bike accessories

Heart rate straps per series

• Chest strap 5.4 kHz: for all models in the Tunturi Pure and GO series.
• Chest strap 122 kHz: for all models in the E series and for the C80, E85 and C85.
• Heart rate strap for the E90: a lightweight chest strap made specifically for the E90 exercise bike.
• Digital heart rate chest strap with Bluetooth: measures your heart rate in real time and, via a connected device or app, also shows your calorie consumption and training zones. Useful for gradually building up your intensity or for rehabilitation.

Pedals and pedal straps

• Set of pedal straps for the E40: also suitable for the E30, E60 and E80.
• Reha support pedals: pedals with straps over your feet and a heel support at the back. A counterweight underneath always makes them tilt at an angle, which makes getting on stable and easy. Suitable for a recumbent bike or exercise bike.

Which Tunturi accessory suits you?

You want to train by heart rate with your Pure or GO exercise bike: choose the 5.4 kHz chest strap.

You have a bike from the E series or a C80, E85 or C85: go for the 122 kHz chest strap. If you have an E90, choose the strap made for it.

You want to track your heart rate, calories and zones in an app: the digital chest strap with Bluetooth is then the most convenient choice. Using an app is optional; some apps require a subscription for their full functionality.

You are cycling after surgery or have less strength or control in your legs: the Reha support pedals keep your feet firmly in place and make getting on and off easier. They are a good match for a recumbent bike with a low step-through.

Your pedal straps are worn out: choose the set for the E40, which also fits the E30, E60 and E80.

What to look for when choosing Tunturi accessories?

Your model and series

Check the frame, the console or the manual to see which model you have. The heart rate straps are made per series, and a strap on the wrong frequency will not work with your console. If in doubt, send us the model name.

Console or app

If you want to see your heart rate on the console of your exercise bike, choose the strap with the right frequency for your series. If you mainly want to view it in an app, the digital strap with Bluetooth is the logical choice.

Compatibility of the Reha pedals

Before ordering, check whether the Reha pedals fit the cranks of your bike. If in doubt, contact us and we will check it for you.

Our advice: you get the most value from the chest strap that matches your series, because that is what makes the heart rate programmes of your exercise bike truly usable. If you are training in a rehabilitation setting, the Reha pedals are a small investment that makes cycling safer and more accessible.

Who are Tunturi exercise bike accessories suitable for?

• Owners of a Tunturi exercise bike: original chest straps and pedal straps that match their series.
• Anyone who wants to train by heart rate: for weight loss, fitness or a controlled build-up.
• People in rehabilitation or with limited mobility: Reha pedals for a stable, safe pedalling motion.
• Physiotherapists and care institutions: aids to make an exercise bike suitable for more clients. You can find more inspiration in our fitness equipment for physiotherapy practices.

Less suitable if your exercise bike is from another brand: the heart rate straps are made per Tunturi series. The digital strap with Bluetooth can be used more widely, but even then, check whether your machine or app supports Bluetooth.

Frequently asked questions about Tunturi exercise bike accessories

Which Tunturi chest strap fits my exercise bike?

That depends on your series. For the Pure and GO series it is the 5.4 kHz strap, for the E series and the C80, E85 and C85 the 122 kHz strap, and for the E90 there is a separate strap. If you do not know which series you have, check the type plate or the manual, or contact us.

Why does my heart rate not appear on the console?

The most common cause is a strap on a different frequency from the one your exercise bike supports. Other causes are dry electrodes, a strap that is too loose or a flat battery. Moisten the electrodes slightly and check that the strap belongs to your series.

Who are the Reha support pedals intended for?

For people who are less steady on their feet or have impaired motor skills, for example during rehabilitation. The straps and heel support keep your foot in place, and because the pedals always tilt at an angle, you get on easily and stably.

Do the pedal straps fit several models?

The set of pedal straps for the E40 is also suitable for the E30, E60 and E80. Other models may require a different set.
