The fastest, cleanest way to go cruising with music on a bicycle.
The Soul Cycle Head Unit is the brains and brawn of your cruising experience. Inside this small, handcrafted, dovetail joined wooden box is a 30 watt digital amplifier and a rechargeable battery good for 5-10 hours of cruising.
The Soul Cycle makes it so easy to go cruising, you can literally be out doing it the first night you receive your order. From the moment you get the inspiration to cruise, you can have your speakers and the head unit set up in five minutes or less. The Soul Cycle Head Unit mounts positively to your handlebars using the German-engineered KlickFix system. It's a one-button release, so when it's time to roll into a restaurant, you can take the head unit with you. Similarly the output cord on the head unit uses a twist-lock connector, making it easy to attach and undo it.
30 watts may not sound like a lot when compared to 1000-watt Car Audio subwoofer amplifiers. But that's the great thing about bicycle audio. There's no engine noise to compete with, and the wind noise is also greatly reduced. In practice, the head unit is big enough to deliver a satisfying bass thump on dance music, and get 5 or 10 of your friends singing along to David Bowie, or Bob Marley, or Aretha.
The head unit doesn't make any sound on it's own. It's just an amplifier and a built-in rechargeable battery. You have to get some speakers. You can pair the head unit with a pair of household speakers of any size, from bookshelf speakers to tall party speakers. The Xtracycle Sport Utility Bike helps with the latter category.
If you're trying to make your party bike as sleek as possible, you may want to consider one of our custom speaker boxes. They'll fit perfectly on your rack or seatpost, and make your setup time even lower.
