Barcelona
It all started in Barcelona, where I met my girlfriend—she’s Austrian, I’m Dutch (so cycling is practically in my DNA). When we started working from home, she often complained about feeling inactive and stiff after long office hours. The main point was that she didnt want to have a standing desk in her room, so that excluded the existing deskbikes. i tried finding one that could accomadate every wish she had, but there was nothing out there. That’s when I had a lightbulb moment!

I wanted to create something that would help her stay active while working. So, I took an old home trainer, headed down to the basement, and got to work. After countless adjustments, failures, and redesigns, I finally built the perfect desk bike for her—one that’s easy to store, looks great, doubles as a standing desk, and most importantly, keeps her moving throughout the day.
Every detail was designed with daily use in mind: a compact foldable design for tight spaces, a smooth, sturdy surface, and a setup that seamlessly fits into a home or office. What started as a simple idea became a solution that makes staying active at work effortless—and even enjoyable.

And then I realized—she wasn’t the only one who needed this. Back in the Netherlands, I set out to perfect the design and start manufacturing it myself. The goal was simple: create a desk bike that keeps people moving, saves space, looks great, and transforms any workspace into an active, healthier environment.
