What to Expect From A Cycology Club Session

Cycology Club is an indoor rhythm cycling studio, built around a loyal community of riders. The bikes feature small hand weights on the rear which are used during the upper-body-focused parts of the session. The environment at Cycology Club plays a big part in their experience, with the studio being decked out with top-tier lighting and a powerful sound system to help you get into the flow of the ride.

Our pre-visit calls to the club went unanswered. On arrival, registration was smooth and quick, with a comprehensive orientation of the club offered. After the class, staff showed us the package prices on their phone.

The Class Experience

Cycology Club received our Recommended rating for their Class Experience.

Our instructor, who arrived just after the advertised class start time, was positive, motivating and was clearly enjoying leading the class.

There was a strong sense of community in the studio, with more experienced riders helping out newcomers, such as when they were struggling to clip themselves into the bike.

The Equipment And Studio

The equipment overall was of high quality, with bikes from Schwinn and shoes by Shimano, although our shoes unclipped a few times during the workout. The studio was well-lit and featured changes in the lighting throughout the session.

The Facilities And Public Areas

Workout towels were provided free of charge. Showers were available at the club, but no shower towels were provided.

The public areas were attractive and the exposed pipework was an interesting feature throughout the basement club. The waiting area was limited in space, but it did feature yoga mats for clients to warm up on. There were no beverage or food options available at the club.

Digital And Technology

The website was designed well and the booking process was intuitive but lengthy. The club’s social media pages accurately reflected the client experience and featured valuable information.
