Exercise bike or an aesthetically-sublime torture device? Fortunately for fitness junkies who also care about things like interior design, the Ciclotte Exercise Bike is indeed what it claims to be — though it looks unlike any indoor trainer ever invented.

As an avant-garde new way to burn calories, the Ciclotte was designed by Luca Schieppati of Milan and manufactured by the Lamiflex Group in Bergamo, Italy.
