​Among the criticisms of e-bikes is the fact that because they provide pedalling assistance, riders don't get as much of a workout as they would otherwise. The Romanian-designed Xmera is designed to address that concern, by varying its level of assistance based on the rider's heartbeat.

From a grueling leg day at the gym to hours spent sat in an office cubicle, our lower legs can easily sustain damage, leading to aches, pains and more serious issues. New on Kickstarter, Spryng aims to quicken muscle recovery times and improve circulation, all in 15-minute bursts.

The shift to electric will open up all sorts of new vehicle categories - and we found this one super nifty. The Twike 5 is kind of like a pedal-assist ebike, except it's a fully enclosed car capable of 120 mph speeds and 310-mile range figures while letting you sneak in a bit of exercise.

The Motiv Ring lets you track steps, activity, heart rate, and sleep with a ring rather than a smartwatch or a wristband, and it's now compatible with Android phones as well as iPhones. Does it offer a better tracking experience than more conventional wearables? Here's our verdict.

​Two years ago, we heard about a study which indicated that even though e-bikes require less rider effort to travel at a given speed, they're still a decent source of exercise. Now, a new study suggests that they're just AS good as regular bikes at improving fitness.
