• Techincal information - Crosstrainer Taurus Fitness X8.7:
  • Balance mass according to the manufacturer: 14.5 kg
  • Balance mass according to the standard of Tiedje: 19.52 kg
    When you compare the products, please mind that some manufacturers define differently the balance mass of their crosstrainers. Therefore, the indications can vary among each other. Besides the weights of flywheel, pulley, and caryying wheel respectively cross and blank discs (levelling discs), the indications of balance mass of some manufacturers consider additionally the weights of pedal arms, handle bars, and other parts. This is dubious in our opinion. We define the balance mass as "total weight of flywheel, pulley, carrying wheel respectively cross and blanc discs", which form the rear balance unit.
