The Performance Monitor is the “brain” behind each RowErg, SkiErg and BikeErg. It’s what truly sets us apart! Be confident knowing your results are comparable from day to day and from one erg to another. Easy menu-driven operation offers pre-programmed and custom workouts for daily motivation. Reliable feedback takes your training up a notch. Create and save your favorite workouts, play games, or review past results.
The PM5 comes standard with every new RowErg, SkiErg and BikeErg purchase, and is also available as an upgrade on all ergs.
Important! Be sure to select the correct machine type and model type when purchasing a PM5.

The PM5 powers up and provides data as soon as the flywheel starts spinning--no need to push a single button to get started. Or dive into all functions with easy menu-driven operation to access preset workouts or create new, save your favorites, review past workout results and much more.
Simple, yet powerful, the PM5 allows you to track your progress with time, distance, pace, Calories and watts, and compare your results with any other PM5s around the world. Display options: All Data, Force Curve, Bar Chart, Large Print and Pacer. Backlit LCD display provides stark contrast for easy readability.
Enhance and track your training. The open-platform PM5 lets you connect wirelessly to a variety of coaching, racing and entertainment apps, including Concept2’s ErgData. Connect to heart rate equipment and devices with Bluetooth ® and ANT+.
Your workout data is automatically stored in the PM5. Or, use our ErgData app to sync and track detailed results to the Online Logbook. There is also an option to save workout data on a USB flash drive (not included) to download workout data to a Mac or PC.
Energy from the spinning flywheel powers up the PM5 while you’re exercising, so you don’t need to stock up on spare batteries. Two D-cell batteries (included) provide over 200 hours of battery life. No plug-in required!
For extra motivation or a break from your regular routine, play a game. Choose from the Fish Game, Darts, Target Training and Biathlon. Great for kids, too. Race against (or train with) friends or teammates. The PM5 also supports wired machine to machine racing for larger events.
Power Generation
The PM5 uses two D cell batteries.
When using a PM5 on SkiErgs or on Model D, E or Dynamic Indoor Rowers, there will be no drain on the batteries while the machine is in use, because the spinning flywheel powers the monitor.
When using a PM5 on Models A, B or C Indoor Rowers, the monitor is powered solely by the two D cell batteries (included in the retrofit kit).
Retrofitting a PM5 to a Model D
When retrofitting a PM5 to a Model D you have two options: to purchase just the monitor (PN 1818) or to purchase the monitor with new mounting hardware (PN 1834).
While the PM5 will fit on the existing monitor arm, the new monitor arm (included with PN 1834) allows for improved monitor cord routing for a tidier overall finished look. The retrofit you choose is up to your personal preference.
