828 Upright
The classic test ergometer
The Monark 828 is a professional ergometer for aerobic testing, education, rehabilitation and work testing.
The Manual Pendulum System provides a clear and verifiable workload. Workload is adjusted directly on the ergometer and can be checked mechanically over time.
With low step-through access, a stable upright frame and the Novo Duo display, the 828 combines Monark’s classic measurement reliability with modern usability. A trusted choice for schools, universities, occupational health, clinics and testing environments.
The Monark 828 is built around Monark’s Manual Pendulum System, MPS.
The system makes workload easy to set, control and verify. Resistance is adjusted manually. This gives the user clear control of the test and makes the model especially suitable for education and standardized testing.
The Novo Duo display provides clear reading of test data in real time. It shows RPM, time, speed, distance, watt, kp and heart rate when an ANT+ chest belt is used.
The upright frame provides stability, ergonomics and low step-through access. This makes the 828 easy to use in environments where several people share the same equipment.
The 828 is developed for professional environments where reliable measurement, simple operation and long product life are important.

The Monark 828 is developed for environments where measurable workload, educational clarity and stable use are central.
- Education: Suitable for teaching physiology, test methodology and the relationship between workload, cadence and power output.
- Occupational health and work testing: Suitable for repeatable submaximal and maximal tests.
- Rehabilitation and medical assessment: Provides controlled workload when evaluating aerobic capacity.
- Research and sports science: Used in studies where mechanical precision and verifiable workload are important.
- Testing and warm-up: Stable construction and low step-through access make the model suitable for daily use in professional environments.
The Monark 828 supports wireless data transfer via BLE and ANT+.
Data can be shared in real time with compatible apps, systems and test platforms. This includes power, cadence, speed and heart rate.
Resistance is not controlled externally. Workload is adjusted manually directly on the ergometer through the MPS system.
This makes the 828 especially suitable for education, testing and clinical environments where the user needs to see, understand and verify the workload.
