When it made its debut on 20 19, the creators of Hydrow said that they were looking for Peloton to build an intelligent rowing machine. Today, four years later, the company launched the second generation dynamometer HydrowWave, which is cheaper and occupies a smaller area. However, what hasn't changed is the computer-controlled resistance, which aims to make your rowing feel as close to the water as possible.

The first and most obvious difference is size, because Wave is about 30% smaller than its predecessors. In order to reduce hardware, Hydrow's 22-inch screen has been reduced to 16-inch high-definition positioning display. Hydrow also responded to the feedback that the first model was too big to put in a small apartment, so it could be hung on the wall. Of course, you need to invest in a vertical anchoring kit, but the company says that the equipment will occupy 27 inches by 30 inches when stored.

Another benefit of all this streamlining is that equipment can now be transported by UPS instead of special delivery services. This may be one of the factors that help to reduce some weight from the price, which is much cheaper than the first generation Hydrow. The price of the first generation product is an astonishing $2,495, while the price of its substitute is more acceptable $65,438+$0.495.

This kind of rowing machine with resistance and power meter has never been cheap, and it is also true in China.
