ROUVY is the brainchild of two brothers, Petr and Jiri Samek, both avid cyclists, from the town of Vimperk in Czechia. They spent many years developing their idea for authentic indoor training during harsh winter weather before ROUVY was finally launched in 2017.
Today our company is based in Prague, employs over 100 people and is growing every year.
Our mission to combine sport and technology for the most realistic cycling experience has made it globally popular among both hobby riders and pro athletes and led to partnerships with brands like Lidl-Trek, Team Visma | Lease a Bike and IRONMAN.
