At Travel Trac®, we believe cycling should be fun, accessible, and safe for everyone. That’s why we developed our innovative, high-quality bike trainers to allow cyclists to ride in the comfort of their own homes.
Our Story
Travel Trac® was founded in 2019 by avid cyclists and engineers John Smith and Jane Doe. As passionate riders themselves, John and Jane understood the need for an affordable, durable, and realistic-feeling bike trainer that could turn any bike into a stationary, indoor cycling bike.
After months of research, design, and testing, they successfully created their first Travel Trac® Fluid Bike Trainer prototype that provided a smooth, consistent resistance. With positive feedback from fellow riders, they knew they were onto something special.
In 2020, John and Jane officially launched Travel Trac® and began selling their flagship trainer model directly to consumers online. Since then, Travel Trac® has grown rapidly as word spread of their high-quality and budget-friendly trainers.
Today, Travel Trac® offers a line of innovative indoor bike trainers and accessories that allow people to train, race, and explore the open road from their own homes. But our mission remains the same – to make cycling accessible and fun for all.
