Rugby legend Joel Stransky squeezes in Wattbike session in between Rugby World Cup commentating

March 17, 2021 1 min read

South African rugby legend Joel Stransky is in Japan to commentate on the Rugby World Cup. An avid Wattbiker himself, Joel could not stand the thought of not being able to push out some serious watts whilst out there. But not to worry, as Wattbike was there to rescue the situation. Our Japanese distributor Ohki kindly lent his training studio to Joel to he could keep his fitness up in between matches.

Finally and fortunately I found my next best friend in Japan - @wattbike Thank you Ohki!!! You have helped keep my spirits high! Had a proper sweat & now need to replenish electrolytes! No @Dischem here to help but lucky I still have stock! #DischemHealthyLiving pic.twitter.com/eQZvL1SQjC - Joel Stransky (@stranners) October 18, 2019
