Generally, the structure of an inertial wheel is to separately install a rotating wheel and a flywheel on a fixed frame. The rotating wheel and the flywheel are connected by transmission. Both ends of the main rotating wheel are respectively connected to a crank. The movement of the crank drives the main rotating wheel to rotate, and then the main rotating wheel drives the flywheel to rotate through a transmission mechanism such as a chain or a belt, and adjusts the exercise intensity by adjusting the flywheel resistance to adapt to different riders or produce different usage effects.
