Does VZFIT work on Elliptical machine or it must be Stationary bike?

Hi, The VZSensor should work on anything that rotates. It senses the angular change. So, if a piece of equipment has a part that rotates like a bike wheel, then it will sense that motion. Of course, not all machines have something like that available. We developed the sensor for exercise bikes, but it has more sensing capability than that. At some point we update the algorithm with more functionality and expand its usage.

It looks like it could work on the elliptical you pictured, but you'd have to check that there's enough clearance between the rotating arms to attach our sensor. Our sensor is 1/4" wide so you need 3/8" clearance for a full revolution.
Ellipticals feel pretty natural but you'll probably want to use the stationary grips for our games that use the button a lot. It takes an extra level of skill to control the button with moving handlebars

I am using it successfully on a Precor elliptical. It's on the inside wheel that's before everything else. I'm using a garmin sensor.
