FAQ
Common questions.
Do I need an Xbox controller?
No. Bike2Game creates and manages a virtual Xbox-compatible controller automatically.
Which sensors work?
Standard Bluetooth LE CSC cadence sensors with crank-revolution data. The COOSPO BK9C has been tested.
Does Bike2Game work with VRChat?
Yes. Bike2Game can send cadence-scaled forward movement through VRChat OSC. Individual worlds may use their own vehicle controls.
Why does Windows ask for administrator permission?
The virtual-controller driver needs to be installed and managed, so Bike2Game requires administrator permission when it starts.
I completed my purchase but lost my license key. What should I do?
Use the support form below with the same email address you used during checkout. If available, include your Paddle transaction ID.
Why does Bike2Game not start after download?
Bike2Game requires HIDMaestro.Core.dll version 1.3.17. Download the official HIDMaestro release, extract HIDMaestro.Core.dll, and place it in the same folder as Bike2Game.exe. The setup guide includes the official download link and detailed steps.
How it works
Turn pedaling into game input
Bike2Game connects to a compatible Bluetooth cadence sensor and converts your pedaling into Windows game input. Use your exercise bike as a game controller, send cadence to VRChat through OSC, or map pedaling to the W key.
Exercise bike game controller
Use a Bluetooth cadence sensor to convert pedaling into a virtual Xbox-compatible controller for controller-compatible Windows games.
VRChat exercise bike
Send exercise bike cadence to VRChat through OSC so pedaling can control forward movement in supported setups.
Bluetooth cadence sensor for Windows games
Use W-key mode when you want simple pedal-to-move input, or virtual controller mode for games that support analog movement.
