exercycles
Pedaling gym machines
Exercycles are stationary bicycles used for indoor exercise.
The term is a trademark that has become generic, like many fitness equipment names.
The pedals drive a flywheel or resistance mechanism rather than wheels, allowing cardiovascular workouts without going anywhere: The gym's exercycles were all occupied during the lunch rush.
