Bring outdoor riding indoors with the Elite Aria smart fan
It's not just a fan; it takes your indoor cycling experience to new heights
In the world of indoor cycling, technology continues to reshape the way we train, pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the pursuit of peak performance.
Elite, a pioneer in smart training solutions, has raised the bar yet again with the new Elite Aria smart fan. It's more than just a cooling device, too – with the Aria, Elite has strived to revolutionise your indoor cycling experience to make it more efficient, effective, enjoyable, and immersive.
The Aria smart fan is a game-changer. It offers a seamless way to stay cool while focusing on your performance metrics, accurately replicating the feel of outdoor rides with its cutting-edge smart airflow technology.
As you pedal away on your indoor trainer, Aria automatically adjusts its airflow based on the intensity and data of your workouts (metrics measured include speed, power, heart rate data, and – in a feature unique to Aria – your body temperature) to deliver a realistic outdoor breeze that enhances your training experience.
One of the standout features of Aria is its intelligent integration within an indoor training ecosystem. Aria offers unparalleled compatibility with various sensors and devices, enabling you to effortlessly manage the airflow based on those key training data metrics. This unique feature creates a personalised, dynamic environment that adapts to your needs as you train.
For those who prefer manual control, Aria offers four speed levels and a standby mode, all easily accessible through the built-in keyboard. Pairing the fan with your devices and sensors is as simple as clicking on the data source. This allows you to switch between modes seamlessly to give you complete control over your training environment.
10 adjustable positions – ranging from 0° to 50° – ensure maximum coverage of your body as you cycle, enhancing comfort and efficiency. Elsewhere in practicality terms, the Aria's faux leather handle makes transportation during the setup phase a breeze.

Aria also seamlessly connects to the My E-Training app, providing quick access to all the essential functions. You won't need to subscribe to the app to enjoy full access to Aria's features, either, ensuring you have all the tools you need at your fingertips. Via the software, you can select the device or sensor to connect, adjust wind power percentage, and customise advanced settings based on your specific workout requirements.
The sleek and modern design of the Aria, designed in cooperation with Adriano Design, ensures the striking-looking device seamlessly integrates visually with the rest of the Elite indoor training ecosystem. If you're into aesthetics as well as efficient and effective training, then the Aria has it all.
In addition to the primary feature of the Aria – its cooling ability – it also features an air purification system. Aria includes two activated carbon filters that purify the air in your training space, eliminating unwanted odours to ensure a clean and refreshing environment while you ride.
In the world of indoor cycling, Elite Aria stands out as a true game-changer. It's not just a fan; it's a comprehensive training companion that takes your indoor cycling experience to new heights.
With the Elite Aria smart fan, you can achieve peak performance while staying cool and comfortable throughout your ride, all within a sleek, intelligent, and meticulously designed package.
