Which Cybex Treadmill Should You Buy?
When choosing a Cybex treadmill, think about user type, training intensity, and how much tech your members expect.
- Best Basic Commercial Treadmill The LCX / 425T is a straightforward 0.5 to 11 mph unit with a 20 by 60 inch deck. Good for budget commercial setups and lighter traffic facilities.
- Best Affordable Performance Upgrade The CX 445T and 450T deliver 12.4 mph top speed and 15 percent elevation, with the 450T adding decline down to minus 2 percent. Ideal for runners and interval training.
- Best for High Performance and Decline Training The 530T Pro Plus Stableflex with minus 3 to 15 percent elevation, 15.6 mph top speed, and a 62 by 22 inch deck is the go to for serious athletes and performance facilities.
- Best Mid Range Workhorse The 550T and 750T combine 12.4 mph speed, 0 to 15 percent incline, and wider decks. The 750T is better for heavier traffic and larger users due to its heavier build and higher user weight rating.
- Best Modern Value with Stability Bars The 525T with ARMZ stability bars offers extra support and safety. Choose the standard console for simple readouts or the 525T with E3 for a more engaging interface.
- Best Club Level All Rounder The 625T gives you 60 by 22 inches of running surface, commercial durability, and your choice of LED or E3 console. A strong fit for most health clubs.
- Best Premium Flagship Choice The 770T and 770T with E3 Console provide the best in deck size, user capacity, and console technology. These are the top picks for high end clubs and facilities that want a premium feel.
