So maybe this is a crazy thought but I think it would be cool if peloton introduced bikes with steering and buttons and developed games for their platform. I Wonder if people would be receptive - it’s certainly something I would like to try.

In addition to Zwift in a sibling post, there's TheRivet[0] that interfaces with a smart trainer and a phone mounted on the stem to do steering onscreen. TheRivet actually developed the steering concept a few months ahead of Zwift [1][2]

Check out Zwift - the virtual cycling platform that cycling purists don't scoff at because Zwift is much more rooted in the tradition and culture of the sport. They are a Silicon Valley cycling e-sports startup, 120 million in funding. Dcrainmaker.com and GPllama on YouTube will be your best 3rd party guides to the ins and outs.

I don't work for or with any entity mentioned. If I did, I would have disclosed it.
