OverviewThe Monark 828 is a professional upright ergometer designed for aerobic testing, education, rehabilitation and work testing. It is built around Monark’s Manual Pendulum System (MPS) which provides a clear and verifiable workload that is adjusted directly on the ergometer and can be mechanically checked over time. The 828 features a stable upright frame with low step-through access and the Monark Novo Duo display for modern usability and reliable measurement.
Key features- Manual Pendulum System (MPS) for verifiable, fixed resistance in kp regardless of cadence
- Monark Novo Duo monochrome touchscreen display showing RPM, time, speed, distance, watt/kp and heart rate (via ANT+ chest belt)
- Low step-through upright frame for easy access and stable use
- Mechanical and electronic calibration options (4 kg calibrated weight + electronic calibration via Novo Duo)
- Wireless data transfer via BLE (FTMS) and ANT+ (FE-C); real-time data transfer to compatible systems
- Powered by an external power bank; USB-C used for charging and power
Frame and mechanical componentsUpright Monark frame with adjustable Monark upright handlebar and adjustable Monark upright seatpost. Wide soft saddle. Bottom bracket 68/122 mm. Steel crank, 170 mm. Pedals 9/16” with foot straps. Covers in high-quality recycled plastic. Flywheel mass 20 kg.
Display & calibrationThe Novo Duo display provides real-time readings of RPM, time, speed, distance, watt/kp and heart rate (when using an ANT+ chest belt). Calibration can be performed electronically via the Novo Duo or mechanically using a 4 kg calibrated weight.
ConnectivityWireless: BLE (FTMS) and ANT+ (FE-C). External control: not supported (resistance is adjusted manually on the ergometer). Data transfer: real-time data can be shared with compatible apps, systems and test platforms (power, cadence, speed, heart rate).
Use- Education: teaching physiology, test methodology and the relationship between workload, cadence and power output
- Occupational health and work testing: repeatable submaximal and maximal tests
- Rehabilitation and medical assessment: controlled workload for evaluating aerobic capacity
- Research and sports science: environments requiring mechanical precision and verifiable workload
- Testing and warm-up: daily professional use with stable construction and easy access
