Dynamic Fluid Fitness M850 Upper Body Ergometer (UBE)

Free Standard Dock or Lift-gate Delivery (Lower 48 Only)

The Dynamic Fluid Fitness M850 Upper Body Ergometer (UBE) is a heavy-duty commercial arm cycle designed for physical therapy, rehabilitation, adaptive exercise, cardiovascular conditioning and commercial fitness environments. Its bidirectional design allows users to exercise in both forward and reverse directions while Dynamic Fluid Fitness's patented adjustable fluid resistance provides smooth resistance across a wide range of exercise intensities.

With 10 levels of adjustable fluid resistance, removable seating for wheelchair access, adjustable crank height and configurable hand grips and crank arms, the M850 can accommodate a broad range of users and exercise positions. It can be used seated, standing or with the supplied seat removed for wheelchair access.

Dynamic Fluid Fitness M850 UBE

The M850 is a commercial upper body ergometer built around Dynamic Fluid Fitness's adjustable Twin Tank fluid resistance technology. Unlike exercise equipment that requires the user to increase speed simply to create substantially greater resistance, the M850 allows resistance level and exercise pace to be adjusted independently.

The result is an upper body exercise platform that can accommodate controlled rehabilitation exercise as well as more demanding cardiovascular and performance training.

The M850 operates in both forward and reverse directions and allows resistance to be changed during exercise. This provides additional flexibility for upper-body conditioning and different exercise protocols.

10-Level Adjustable Fluid Resistance

At the center of the M850 is Dynamic Fluid Fitness's patented 10-level Variable Fluid Resistance (VFR) Twin Tank. Users can quickly adjust the resistance across 10 levels to accommodate different abilities, training intensities and exercise goals.

The updated impeller design provides up to 15% greater resistance than previous versions, while the double-sealed, precision-aligned Twin Tank is designed for smooth and consistent operation.

• 10 adjustable fluid resistance levels
• Patented Variable Fluid Resistance Twin Tank
• Smooth resistance across different exercise speeds
• Forward and reverse exercise capability
• Resistance can be adjusted during exercise
• Updated impeller design for increased resistance range

Upper Body Ergometer for Physical Therapy & Rehabilitation

The Dynamic Fluid Fitness M850 UBE offers several features that can make it particularly useful in physical therapy, rehabilitation and adaptive exercise environments.

The seat can be completely removed to provide wheelchair access or allow standing exercise. When the seat is used, its position can be adjusted to accommodate different users. Crank height, crank length and hand-grip angle can also be adjusted to help establish an appropriate exercise position.

Depending on the user's abilities and treatment or exercise program, the M850 may be used for upper-body cardiovascular exercise, shoulder-girdle conditioning, general upper-body exercise and progressive rehabilitation training.

• Removable seat for wheelchair access
• Supports seated or standing exercise
• Adjustable seat position
• Adjustable arm crank height
• Adjustable crank length
• Adjustable hand-grip angle
• Bidirectional upper-body exercise
• Wide range of adjustable resistance

Bluetooth Performance Monitor

The M850 includes an Interactive Performance Monitor with Bluetooth connectivity and automatic resistance detection. The console recognizes the selected resistance level and provides workout feedback without requiring extensive programming before exercise.

Performance data includes:

• Time
• Speed
• Distance
• Stroke rate
• Calories per hour
• Watts
• 10-level resistance setting
• Pacer

The monitor also includes a heart-rate receiver and is compatible with major heart-rate belts.

Adjustable Ergonomics & Accessibility

One of the M850's most important features is its ability to accommodate different users and exercise positions.

The arm crank height adjusts from approximately 28.14 to 49.05 inches. The crank length and hand-grip angle can also be adjusted, while ergonomic handles are designed to provide a secure and comfortable grip.

The contoured seat features a textured surface and smooth position adjustment. Removing the seat creates additional space for wheelchair users, fitness-ball exercise or standing upper-body exercise.

No External Power Required

The Dynamic Fluid Fitness M850 does not require an external electrical power supply for operation. This provides greater flexibility when positioning the upper body ergometer within a physical therapy clinic, rehabilitation center, fitness facility or other exercise environment.

Because an electrical outlet is not required, facilities have more freedom to place the M850 where it best fits their available space and exercise workflow.

Commercial-Grade Construction

The M850 is constructed from steel and aluminum with a rigid commercial-grade frame designed for stability during upper-body exercise. Rubber feet help provide floor adhesion while protecting the underlying surface.

Its combination of commercial construction, adjustable ergonomics and fluid resistance makes the M850 suitable for professional environments serving users with a broad range of exercise abilities.
