The Munich-based VR fitness startup Icaros<\/a> has opened a store in Munich's Westend where it sells exercise bikes, professional equipment and racing simulators.<\/strong><\/p>\n

At the Icaros store, interested parties can try out various Icaros devices. Unlike conventional fitness equipment, Icaros users train in virtual reality. The VR headset displays virtual worlds. By shifting their body's center of gravity on the fitness device, they control their flight over landscapes or dive into underwater worlds.<\/p>\n

Exercise bikes, professional equipment and racing simulators<\/h3>\n

At the Icaros store at Schie\u00dfst\u00e4ttstrasse 24, interested parties can test the Icaros Home exercise bike, which is offered online for \u20ac2,380, and also purchase it immediately and take it home. The Icaros Pro and Icaros R machines are also available for testing in Munich's Westend district. The former is a professional training device for gyms. Prices start at \u20ac8,400, according to the Icaros website. The R model is designed more for entertainment than fitness. The motorcycle racing simulator is available from \u20ac7,400.<\/p>\n
