Quick verdict

LiftEvidence editorial assessment

A non-motorised curved treadmill that you power yourself, with no top speed, three resistance levels, flexible slats for shock absorption and a basic display. Curved treadmills respond instantly to your effort, which makes them excellent for sprints and intervals and demanding for steady running. It has no incline, needs no power, and owner evidence is limited to 60 ratings.
